Just got mine back with a brand new patch cable from pectel .. can someone please tell me what it shows you

functions 1-8?

cheers

 

I can do better than tell you :











Also, if you got the data link cable added to your loom connection, you can download 90 minutes worth of datalogging to a lap top (I have the software for this if required).

 

thanks mike!
and yes, it has the pc serial port in the loom

 

oh mike, can you give me any info on what Duty, Co pot, fuel and ign are?

im assuming duty is the injector duty.. but in what parameter? and ign.. in terms of advance? retard?

cheers

 

Injector duty cycle, no parameter, 0 is unused / 100% is flat out

Only ever seen the ignition in positive values

CO pot doesn't really affect us on P8 as it's not trimmable on the ECU (except certain early versions of P8)

Fuel is fuel delivery in milliseconds

NOTE: boost value is absolute.

I'm still half asleep so forgive me if I've bolloxed any of that up, lol.

 

boost absolute? so i have to deduct or add atmospheric pressure?

cheers bill

 

Deduct .

 

what a load of old wank.. what were pectel thinking!

 

Just a thought, it might be because they were trying to get the most out of the amount of logging memory available (memory was quite expensive back then ), if you add a "-" infront of the boost value you are wasting some of the available memory space, so less logging time, however it's quite easy to manipulate these values in excel (once you've downloaded the data) to display the boost as you'd prefer to see it.

 

Nope, its because all pressure is termed absolute.

Why do you think a 2bar sensor is called a 2bar sensor when it can only see a bar of boost? Same for 3,4 and 5bars. Anyone think, marelli, bosch, lucas and maybe Siemens are also twats who dont have a clue?

The terminology is correct, its ONLY the automotive world that somehow made an arse of it "Boost" is simply pressure over and above atmosphere,a nd atmosphere is approx 1bar. Thus .1bar of boost is actually 1.1bar absolute.

There.

 

Patch cable? Whats the use of it, can you modify some values within it like the startup message?

 

Fuel delivery in Miliseconds?? So what does 2.6m equate to??

 

Sorry Dame, i dont think im quite grasping what your asking as you seem to have answered yourself


That 2.6m is the injectors opening for 2.6ms.
The amount of fuel delivered obviously depends on nozzle size, fuel pressure and inlet tract pressure/depression.

 

rofl ... so bill shouldve said, fuel is "the length of time injectors are open"


cheers stu

 

Cmon, whats the patch cable or did Dave mix things up?

 

It is also deemed that in Diving Thus the largest Pressure change is with in the first 33ft approx because that is double the pressure of the atmospheric pressure at sea level hence the term atmospheres absolute


Slightly of topic but................... i am feeling smart tonight so please forgive a few indulgences


mike

 

Damo, I did say I was half asleep

I think Dave probably means the cable from the unit to the Pectel loom - Mike R could possibly have sorted that as R&B did mine

Betcha don't have a peak recall facility

 

how much!!!!!!!!! ???!!!

 

You'd have to ask Michael, was all part of the blinding R&B service for moi

....and I had it before Mike

It is actually quite useful, and caught out my bro-in law's over enthusiastic driving once

Dave, what was your power & torque again, can't find your graph's?

 

no bill... you seem to have misunderstood..

HOW MUCH!!!!???? do you want to bet that i dont have the peak recall modification/option

'ang on.. ill post the graphs


going for my figures are we??

 

LOL, two misunderstandings in two nights

So, do you have it or not

No, just interested for comparison sake Mine will probably be slightly less than yours as we're doing something a little different...

 

heres the graphs, EXACTLY as harvey and Ahmed printed them







so come on then.. what are you doing??

 

LMAO

I'll tell you if it works

 

It worked (much better than I expected!! )

 

MR Rainbird. is this the same stuff that you have???

Mike has a Pectel monitor in his car. He also sells SECS monitors that have similar (but not quite as much) functionality.
