Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: Hello, I am going to install Vems on Renault 4cyl, 16v engine. Most of them have 60-2 primary trigger pattern. * VR, HALL is very common. ** measure for each sensor: if you find 2 pins that measure same resistance in both directions (typically between 300..1400 Ohm), that is VR sensor. Otherwise HALL. Collect some info (specific engine code, year, ...) Engine is F4R730, Clio RS 172, year 2000. Specification is: *primary trigger - VR 270 ohm resistance, 60-2 trigger pattern *map sensor - Vdo 20-100kpa, 520-4780mV *camshaft phase shifter - on-off type, 7.5 Ohms *injectors - marelli, hiZ, 14.5 Ohms *Iat sensor - ntc, 1500 Ohm at 25C *Clt sensor - ntc, 2200 Ohm at 25C *engine is standard, only decat, compression ratio 11:1, max power at 6250 rpm V3.8b (oid11249 v3/11837) has arrived in late November. Ordered from www.vems.hu. Nice communication, very fast shipping... I already have some experience with engine management systems, but this is my first vems. No doubt i will need help and support. I started with studying vems tune options. After that i downloaded V3.8 board schematics and other available documentation. It took some time, so board assembleing started on 1st December 2015. As recommended I will organize this page thematically. 1. BOARD ASSEMBLY I have some doubts about flyback, sck pullup on V3.8b board and main supply. '''Flyback''' Can you help me and define which solution is applied when V3.8b is purchased as preassembled with 30V flyback? I have found two solutions. I am not sure which is right. 1. Only 1K5E30V diode from flyback pad to ec36/pin23. 2. 1K5E30V diode + capacitor (light red one wima mks 4 4.7 uF 100 - 10% which comes with recue kit, probably noise filter but i am not sure) between flyback pad and ground http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=MembersPage%2FCsotiF%2FGenboardassembly That is correct: http://www.vems.hu/files/CsotiF/DSCN5631.JPG Is ground reinforcement essential or optional? Optional. v3.8 has 54um ---- About sck pullup on isp header. Is it optional or essential on V3.8b board? It didnt came soldiered on board. SCK has no effect if the v3 starts up (always on powerup) and communicates. Without SCK pullup (and 47uF or bigger electrolyte capacitor on 5V) it might happen that (say) once in 20 startups it goes into "ISP" mode (not normal running). Can you check the bottom of the ISP pinheader ? On v3.8b the diagonal resistor not needed, 4k7 near the pinheader. Try to '''measure with a 100k pulldown resistor applied temporarily to SCK, SCK voltage should be >4V.''' Is main supply on V3.8b preasembled? Diode and ptc fuse were soldered od board. It seems nothing else is needed. Should be preassembled, yes. OK. Thanks. ---- BY399 Assembly almost done. Only BY399 left to install, but i am not sure if it is needed on 3.8b board. So again please help. What is the function of BY299/BY399 between ground on the bottom of the board and flyrail? Is this needed on 3.8b? Is this some sort of flyback for IGBT? Here is the picture. http://www.vems.hu/files/CsotiF/DSCN5633.JPG Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ...
