OK, so I know this is coming out a few days late, but there is just so much being working on that I feel I could keep going for weeks. In the end I had to just draw a line or I'd never get this update out!
Like last month, there remains a lot going on with hardware. The v0.4.1 design is now completed and a batch has been ordered for testing. I'll make a separate post for this once they go on sale, but in short it brings the v0.4 board inline with everything that has been happening on the v0.3.3. I've also made some revisions to the VR / opto board based on some real world testing. I haven't been able to test with more than a small handful of VR sensors, but all those tested are working well now. I will be selling these assembled shortly.
On the firmware front, there remains a lot happening. As a bit of a teaser, the bulk of the work around sequential is now completed, so hopefully this isn't too far away, There are still updates to be made to some of the decoders to enable this and the interface within TS needs a lot of work, but the core code is in place.
OK, so as for the things that ARE coming out with this months release:
- Many improvements made to the launch control. There had been some bugs around this that are now resolved.
- Calibration added for the standard Honda MAP sensor
- Boost cut ignition option added
- Trigger filter configuration added. 3 levels of noise filtering available for most decoders
- Cranking accuracy improvements on low resolution decoders (basic distributor and 4g63)
- Ignition bypass output added
- Made the stall time dynamic, meaning that run on of spark and fuel after engine turn off is minimsed.
- EXPERIMENTAL - Closed loop idle control for PWM based idle valves. This has come after a full rewrite of the PID library that will form the basis of all closed loop adjustments going forward. This feature should be considered experimental for now, but testing feedback is very welcome.
As usual, the code can be downloaded on the wiki: http://speeduino.com/wiki/images/0/0c/S ... _Apr16.zip
Remember to always reload the latest ini file when you install new firmware
If there are any major bugs or issues, please let me know ASAP.
