Hi Andre,

Last I heard you said the R32 PFC runs the old style read/write method, something along those lines anyway, its been a while. :P
I've since discovered the Pro version PFC's have the identical old internals (pictures wise) so you may kill 2 birds with 1 stone.

How is the R32 version looking? I'm very keen to do some testing and able to provide useful feedback.

Fasthatch, Will your connector box and/or software be able to accept and integrate a wideband lambda sensor.

Please see this link from Innovative Motorsport with regards to the integration of their wideband in the Datalogit system.

Thanks

Neal

Hi FastHatch,
I am currently using datalogit on a Celica ST205 overe you going to offer support fo rthe MR2 & Gt-four Power FC? Woud you like some .dat map files & some logs?

I note you are building in support for Windows Ce - how about the Microsoft windows mobile used on the Ipaqs?

Damn good work - Keep it up m8

I'm sorry that I couldn't meet the promised release dates, therefore I've decided to release snapshots of the latest builds.

I'll upload a new version once a week or maybe more frequently. You must not use these versions to tune your PFC, they are stable but not fully tested, especially not on Win9x.

Monitoring is pretty well tested so you might want to test the channel view / Map watch. Just select the right com port and click on Monitor > Start.

The latest version can always be downloaded here:

http://www.fctune.com/download/development/

You can check the file date to see if I have uploaded a new version:



The build date is also in the title:




I'm still looking for people who could help with some icons and descriptions. Feel free to post or email me bug reports, critism, wishes etc.

A new fully tested release will be available soon.

Hi Andre.
The software looks great, more than I expected.
One more thing. The tune part it's in off mode right?
You can't view any maps right?

I just ran the program - looks nice. It seems like it wont take much to transition from fc-edit. I think I might have run across a minor bug - as I close it windows gives me an error saying "This program has a problem and needs to close" (I don't know if you expected this). I'm running WinXP. I'll try doing some monitoring tonight if I have time.

Not sure if I understand your question, if you ask why you can't click anything under the "Tune" and "Settings" tab, you need to open a calibration file first.

If you add more COM ports to your computers, FC Tune will offer them as an options

FC Edit has also "adopted" to show only those COM ports that are available and not 1 - 8 by default.

I may have missed it but I'm looking for the Aux Inputs (Wideband) for monitoring? Also is there a way to import old datalogit log files into the monitoring system. I can't seem to get them to read.

First you need to open a calibration (.dat) file and then you can open a datalogit log file under Monitor > Import. If it doesn't work please email me the log file so I can have a look at it.

I used that calibration file that someone posted for MR2 but when you open it you cant really do anything, is this release not a working release yet? can i go online with a PFC with this latest .60 version to retreive whats been program and edit it?

Thanks, great looking software too man! good job!

Hola Claudio gaveta.

But if you open the tuned map from a FD posted here https://www.rx7club.com/power-fc-forum-47/tuning-questions-huge-stutter-injector-ms-timing-566335/
It will open.
I think that Andre forgot to put the pop up window that say '' Model or version not supported'' in this ver. of FCTune.

Hello Andre, will your software feature the 'monitor' mode as well like on the PFC Commander?

As the center console of the FD is able to fit a 2 DIN radio I'm considering to fabricate a carputer with thouchscreen. I would then like to hook the carputer up to the ECU for 'online' monitoring like in the Monitor mode on the commander. So you can either put it in monitor mode and have round gauges/or digital numbers show you what's going (like the commander does in monitor mode) or you can immediately switch to the setup mode and enter the mappings in the car.


No need to say you can use the carputer also for MP3, GPS nav etc etc.... (on the side)

FC Tune has a different intention, it's not primary for in-dash use, you might want to look into FC Watch for that.

I am assuming that the Subaru EJ207 is not yet supported? I can't seem to open any of my maps.
