Features i would like to see
« on: August 02, 2007, 09:54:35 am »
Not sure wheather its possible allready but i would like to see.....

A way of setting it up so when i press the little button the display turns on and off. The guage is in a pod and even at lowest brightness it blinds me.

Warning logic for an output. I want to have a buzzer or other such warning when the AFR gets above a certain level (and throttle and boost are above a certain level). Otherwise the warning would fire everytime i let off the gas.

Are these possible at present???

PS any news on why my guage swaps between afr and lambda, and why when i plot rpm there are many dips in the graph down to zero, also i cannot get boost to read correct (all these issues documented for you in emails)

Thanks

Hi mate,

I was holding on until we got the perfect setup based on Maff and I's investigations.
Essentially you need a couple of resistors in a couple of places, when I've got these tested for sure I'll let you know how to wire them and throw some resistors in the post to you.

I should have kept you informed, sorry about that.

Rob

Okay so heres how we've connected the one we tested on an S13:
The addition of a resistor between pin 11 and 12v pulls the ground voltage up above the the 0.35v that it seems to sit at.

The addition of a resistor in-line with the Analog input:

I take it this is a fix to get the boost pressure shown correctly from a apexi avcr???

Any news on the other issues,

eg button to be used for turning display on and off,
dips in rpm log,
display swapping between afr and lambda

sorry for all the questions, thanks for the support so far.

Regards

Chris

This is for any analog input, we've used this on the Nissan MAF signal.
There wont be any development on the button for the foreseeable future, the dips should be sorted by the 270K resistor.
The swapping should be sorted by the resistor on the analog input!

 ;DGreat. will get it done, should have all the resistors at work.

Cheers
