Making Adjustments

On Line / Offline

Changes may be made directly to the ECU (Online) or to a file (Offline).

Online (ECU Connected)

To make changes directly to the ECU, connect the ECU then select Open
ECU
from the File menu.

When the ECU is opened the calibration data is first retrieved from the ECU
then matched to a file. If the ECU data does not match an existing file then a
new file will be created, at which point an Engine Description and Comment
should be entered to describe the file.

Changes to the ECU are also saved to this file when the ECU is closed.

Offline (ECU not Connected)

To make changes to a file with the ECU offline, select Open from the File
menu.

The file may be sent to the ECU at a latter date by selecting Send File to ECU
from the File menu.

Closing the ECU or File

When the changes are completed, the ECU or file should be closed by
selecting Close from the File menu. This will ensure that changes are saved
to the associated file.

Warning Alarms

If the Warning Alarms have been set a warning screen will be displayed if any
sensor goes outside its alarm limits. This can be particularly useful for
automatically monitoring engine temperature during a dyno session. The
alarms can be configured in the Functions table.

Help

Context sensitive help is available by pressing F1 or clicking on the help
button. This shows help that is relevant to the current screen.
