Summary of change:
''' Archieve copy of Intitial config ''' '''The engine management firmware has quite a number of parameters, these are daunting to a newcomer, but vital if you want to extract the best performance from your engine.''' ---- '''Warning: every time you upload a new firmware, config and tables must be uploaded too''' steps in short: * '''save your config''' (mcd, mct) before the upgrade; I guess you always keep uptodate config.txt on hardisk anyway. Save ''mcd'' config when you get the board, but only ''pump_pw_zero'' is useful currently. * '''upload the firmware''' (after you saved your config and tables) * '''upload your config.txt''' config to the AVR: run make mtt and upload config.mtt with a TerminalProgram, see GenBoard/MenuSystem. This must happen after you uploaded the new firmware. It is '''dangerous to attempt to start an engine without thorough review of the config and tables''', and some OnlineCourse/OffEngineTesting (at the very minimum injector and ignition outputs must be tested, possibly with lightbulbs). Eg. too high dwell settings (that are absolutely valid for another ignition transformer) or misconfigured inputtrigger (that is valid for another setup) can fry the ignition coils. The firmware and config that comes in the board: only useful for testing, not ment for production. ---- '''Readings''' See If you're new to this and don't know how to upload firmware or config yet, go and read MembersPage/JohanEriksson/VerThreeFirmForDummies for a quick start. * '''Information from this page is being moved to GenBoard/Manual''' (config column of the matrix) for easier searchability and more examples for particular types of installs * To understand the parameters can follow the details that follow, at times you will need to consult the '''MegaManual''' (the basic, but most important fuel related paramenters are described very well), and for some of the most advanced ones you might need to consult the code (struct config_t comments in global.h that also appears on LCD during ''mttc'', and comments in the functions). * {{Basics/HexaDecimal}} if you are not familiar with hexadecimal number system * {{Basics/ElectronicEngineManagement}} if you are horrified by the number of parameters that '''can''' be set (which is a nice feature, actually: you are not stick with default values if you want to tinker) ----- '''How many settings are there?''' * ''mcd'' output from GenBoard matches config.txt, and config_t in global.h. More than 250 variables. If the config.txt has less (or more) variables than global.h suggests, make mtt (make_conf.pl) will warn about the differences. Large sections can often be disabled (the variables are still there, but with no effect). Eg. with ego_lean_limit and ego_rich_limit=00 the other ego parameters take no effect at all. * ''mct'' shows the tables: up to about 4x16x8 table elements See GenBoard/Manual/Tables === '''Config File''' === The file config.txt contains the settings that define the operation of the GenBoard, the following section details each setting. :'' Priming pulse at -40 F [100 usec] eg. 0x40 * 100uS = 6400uS'' ::{{primep=40}} :'' Priming pulse scaling at 170 F (0x80=half, 0xFF=same as cold) 0xA0 = ~63%'' ::{{primep_temp_scaling=A0}} :'' Cranking pulsewidth [x100 usec] at -40F eg. 0xE0 * 100uS = 22400uS'' ::{{cwl=E0}} :'' Cranking pulsewidth [x100 usec] at 170F eg. 0x40 * 100uS = 6400uS'' ::{{cwh=40}} '''Be aware''': sematics have changed in firmware versions after 14/08/2004, before all injectors were fired during cranking.

You must know what you are doing, that's very important. See also GenBoard/MenuSystem for * how to use these files (make mtt and send the mtt files with SoftwarePage/TerminalProgram) and * how to save your config and tables into files like this (mcd and mct commands and cutn'paste) * or how to quickly set individual parameters in the ECM SRAM and EEPROM (without files involved, in the mtt menu, mcs needed to copy to EEPROM) :[http://caffrey.dk/megasquirt/files/config.txt etc/config.txt] :[http://caffrey.dk/megasquirt/files/tables.txt etc/tables.txt] Once you get the above files you need to do a couple of things (which are also described in GenBoard/MenuSystem as noted above): # Copy the files to the etc/ directory of your firmware directory. # Open the config.txt and tables.txt and make needed changes to fit your setup. # Save the changes # Open command prompt, navigate to firmware directory and type "make mtt"(this adds config.mtt and tables.mtt to etc/ ) # Download the firmware to AVR The above steps need only be used once as long as firmware version changes are not made. After you have done these steps, you can use the following to make changes: # Open your favorite SoftwarePage/TerminalProgram # Connect(9600 baud) # Type "Man" and send # Type "mcd" and send to print config in the terminal window. Copy/Paste contents of the terminal window to text editor for changes. # Save changes. # Now repeat the above two steps for table changes except use "mct" in place of "mcd" to get the contents of the tables in the terminal window. # Open command prompt and navigate to firmware directory and type "make mtt"(this adds config.mtt and tables.mtt to etc/ # Download config.mtt and/or tables.mtt through terminal window by navigating to the config.mtt file in your firmware. ---- === '''global.h walkthrough'''=== This is a terrible place here. Info should be (scattered) on the relevant pages, because people want to find them by function (eg. when reading GenBoard/Manual/ThrottlePositionSensor ). If someone wants to go through them according to global.h order, he should see in the firmware. Insert comments in the global.h if you think it is necessery. Please take action. ''#define TRIGGER_REENABLE_MAX 25'' ''#define TRIGGER_REENABLE_MIN 3'' These function as a debounce circuit in software. As an example, let's take a 4 stroke 4 cylinder engine, which will never rev beyond 6000 RPM. At 2 sparks per revolution (4 cylinders remember), this gives 6000 / 60 * 2 = 200 sparks (TACH pulses) per second. Each spark is thus 5ms apart. What this means is that after receiving a TACH pulse, it is considered wrong to receive another pulse within reenable_time, which is generally 1/2 of the previous period (2.5ms in the above case). TRIGGER_REENABLE_MIN and ...MAX are lower and upper limits for reenable_time (see reenable.c). For higher rev engines, or higher cylinder-count, TRIGGER_REENABLE_MIN must be set lower (like 2, which means reenable after 1..2msec), or even better, use a clean trigger and set config.crank_ic3dis=FF (or alternatively eventqueue reenable). ''Note: this is only used if config.crank_ic3dis == 0 (see timing.c)'' ''#define O2_MAX_TPS 180 // WOT, disable closed loop'' ''#define O2_MAX_KPA 110 // Turbo, disable closed loop'' O2_MAX_TPS is a threshold value, it represents how far you are allowed to press down on the accelerator before deciding you are now reaching WOT where the engine will want to run richer than stoich. This is tuned most easily "live" since it depends on the resistance of the TPS sensor and it's relation to the throttle plates. O2_MAX_KPA is a threshold value, it represents the Manifold Absolute Pressure above which the engine is running under boost. Ambient (atmospheric) pressure can be simplified as 100 KPa (1 bar), fluctuating a bit depending on the weather. The intake manifold pressure is always lower than this, unless the engine is severely loaded down (going uphill flooring it in 5th gear at 35km/h) or you are using a turbo which is providing boost. Either way, it's a bad time to run closed loop, so it is disabled under these conditions. ''#define FLOOD_CLEAR 155'' When an engine is flooded it means the sparkplugs have so much fuel on them the spark energy just conducts through this fuel without creating a spark and igniting the fuel. This is bad because cranking the engine only makes it worse (adding fuel). Since you never play with the accelerator to start a fuel injected car (like with carbs), the ECU decides that if you are flooring the accelerator while starting, you are trying to clear the engine of the flooded condition, and it will not inject any fuel. ''Note: FLOOD_CLEAR is compared against engine.tps (see fuelcalc.c), not the TPS ADC reading directly, so it means throttle is 155/256 pressed between config.tps_low and config.tps_high ?'' ''#define INJ_PER_REV 2'' ---- Here are some tidbits about the various pulsewidth modifiers that might give you something to work from. '''Feel free to order it and add config.variable names and units.''' 1) Priming pulse is a fixed-width, pre-start shot performed at MS boot. Pulse is scaled to coolant temp, interpolated between eg. ''primep=30'' means 48*100 usec pulse (hexadeciman 0x30==48). Priming pulse is normally downscaled for higher coolant temp, using linear interpolation: ''primep_temp_scaling=80'' means scaled to 50% (== 0x80 / 0x100) at 170 F (80=half, ff=same as cold). 2) ASE is strictly time dependent and should turn on ever time you start the engine. The amount of fuel it adds is computed using the coolant temp, higher temps mean less enrichment, but the duration of the ASE is the same every time. 3) WUE duration and magnitude are both determined by coolant temperature. As long as coolant temp stays below the top bin temperature in the table, you have WUE enabled (although if you have set the bins to 100%, then you get no additional enrichments...). 4) The "normal" pulse width is scaled by absolute manifold air temperature, so if the MAT sensor is heat soaked (Per's problem described a while back), then you will be way lean when you start. Could this be the one that is causing your problems? Eric ---- Question: I was trying upload config.mtt with bray terminal and by mistake I've selected config.txt instead of config.mtt end send it to ms avr's eeprom and receved strange signs in terminal. Ather that I've uploaded config.mtt and everithing worked fine. Now I am wondering if config.txt that I have sent is going to make some trouble, do I need to erese my eeprom and upload config.mtt and tables again, and if I do how can I do that? Answer: Verify if your flash is what you used to write in (vems.hex: bootloader prog.pl verifies it in a sec or or avrprog in a minute...). The problem is that if you happen to activate the bootloader (mcbffmcb) with the dummy strings you send to AVR, there is some chance you can hurt the flashcontent (atmel used very simple commands in the protocol...). The chance is very small, but still there. So verify. If you don't have the vems.hex, which you uploaded (you made another mistake there too, then!!) just upload a new. ---- Got tired of doing HEX-conversions and figured, that others felt the same. Created a small Win32 app to do it for me (Yeah, I know i'm supposed to do a nifty Perl-hack, but thought that the not-so-nerdy-ones should have a go at it too...). Get it here: http://80.196.115.45/install/InitialTables.zip /Nolan I improved bin/make_table.pl so anyone can use decimal numbers and even real-world units in the tables.txt file, after <code> numberformat=10 or numberformat=real </code> * You can switch ''numberformat'' after each line if you like * Default (everything in the file before an explicite ''numberformat=..'' statement) is ''numberformat=16'' (which is for hexa) so old ''tables.txt'' files are not broken. * ''numberformat=real'' multiplies by 4 ''n'' (ignition) table values, so the crankdegree unit is converted to ECM's internal 1/4 degree representation. '''numberformat=real gives undefined result''' (don't use) '''for ''j'' and ''l'' tables ''' TODO: * support other number-system (eg binary: numberformat=2) * add same to config.pl * allow 0x.. and %.... format even if default is decimal (to input hexa or binary numbers without changing back and forth) ---- '''TODO: this page should be splitted to sections:''' :PortInjected (injection parameters) :DummyIgnition or EdisIgnition, (IgnitionPage) :IdleControl :WideBand, NarrowBand :GenBoard/LcdFaQ :GenBoard/KeyBoard Misc... Following some complete docs structure (Autronics?) would be a good idea. Mostof these are started, but unorganized. Finally all these texts will be integrated into jtune, the new experimental tuning software (so it must be splitted to individual parameters and flags)... ---- '''Standard default''' There is no "standard default" config.txt file. The '''shipped config and firmware''' is just for testing, it '''should not be used for production'''. The only value that makes sense is '''WBO2 1st channel pump_pw_zero that is recently calibrated according to the onboard components''' (for appr. 0 mA output pump-current) - but even that must be verified during the GenBoard/Manual/WBSensorControllerTesting. The production config will depend on trigger tooth-count, trigger position, ignition advance and other factors. Maybe start from config of MembersPage/MichaelKristensen (which is one of the first config that gets updated to utilize new features). But don't use anything without verification. The firmware itself will be standardized (feel free to ''make dist'' of the version recommended on GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges) (with the usual disclaimer, of course). This is possible, since board HW is largely standardized now. But we can't standardize engines - there is support for too many kinds. We explain different types (eg. of ignition) in different lines of GenBoard/Manual matrix (for easier readibility) even if this makes some redundancy. - - Yes, the included config.txt should not be used to control Genboard while in a vehicle. ---- '''See also''' * GenBoard/Manual is the new matrix that we use for explaining config parameters. Please move config parameter info into the page referred from '''Config column''' (make up the link and even the page if needed, try to reuse existing pages)
