Installing the Software

The MoTeC Software must be installed on to the PC hard disk before it can be
used.

The main software required is the ECU Manager software, if Data Analysis is
required then the Interpreter software should also be installed, if telemetry is
required then the Telemetry Monitor software should be installed.

The software can be downloaded from the MoTeC web site at

www.motec.com.au

, or is available on CD.

MoTeC is continually updating the software and newer versions may be
downloaded from the web site at no charge.

To install the software after downloading from the web double click on the
downloaded file and follow the instructions.

Note that a separate folder (directory) is automatically created for each
version of the software. Old versions are kept so that they may be used if
necessary.

Do not change the MoTeC directory structure or move the software to a
different directory, otherwise the software will not operate correctly.

Starting the Software

To start the MoTeC Software double click the appropriate icon on the desktop
or select the appropriate program from the Start menu. For example: Start /
Programs / MoTeC / M400 M600 M800 / ECU Manager 2.1

ECU Manager Software

The ECU Manager software is covered in more detail later in this manual.

Data Logging

Data Logging allows the ECU operational data to be recorded in a memory
chip inside the ECU, the data may then be extracted for analysis on a PC.
Data logging is extremely useful for checking mixture readings, sensor
readings, diagnostics errors and other operating information.
