As you perfect the maps for a particular application you might add a number to the end of the
name to indicate which map is most recent. For example you might call the maps for a Turbo,
Turbo1, Turbo2, etc.
After you have chosen a name for the maps, you must enter the name in the space provided.
The system will pause and ask if it is OK to continue with the save. If everything looks correct,
continue by pressing
Y Y
. If you entered the name incorrectly, abort the Save function by
pressing
N N
, or
R R
to re-enter a name.
9.2 Loading Maps and Identification
While the ECU system is Online, you can load previously saved map information from
computer disk into your Haltech ECU. The contents of the ECU are erased and replaced with
the new maps you have chosen. If you are Offline, you can load previously stored maps, view
and edit them, then save them for later use.
To load new complete maps and identification into the ECU, you must first be Online. Press
¦f ¦f
then
l l
from the Files sub-menu. The load command erases the contents of the ECU
and replaces it with the set of maps stored on the disk you are loading into the system.
Remember to save any maps currently in the ECU that you wish to retain before loading
new maps from a disk.
Although the loading of the maps should not affect the running of the ECU, it is best that the
engine is not under load while maps are being loaded.
Select the name of the map you wish to load by using the arrow keys to highlight that name
and press return. If there are more files then will fit in the window, you can scroll down
through the extra files using the arrow keys. If you know the name of the file, you may type it
in. The computer will then pause to ask if everything is OK before continuing the load. If you
are ready to proceed, press
Y Y
. If there is an error, abort by pressing
N N
. The load will take
approximately two minutes.
9.3 File Management
The ECU's map information is stored as a file on disk. You may think of these files as books in
library, where the filename is the title of the book. So that the books do not become difficult to
find as your library grows, there are a few features that help you to organise your files.
9.3.1 Erasing Unwanted Maps
The Erase function in the Files sub-menu will delete old files from disk. Press
E E
from the Files
sub-menu to enter this function. The list of maps stored on the disk will appear. Use the Up
and Down Arrows to select the map you wish to erase, or else type in the name of the map,
