Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''Eric Wiklunds Volvo 142 Turbo''' This car shares a lot with Jonas car: MembersPage/MattiasSandgren/VolvoBtwenty The same engine configuration, only this one is turbo-charged. ---- '''Issues''' The two EGT inputs worked fine last year with older firmware (1.0.18 or 1.0.19) but don't seem to work after a firmware upgrade to '''1.0.38'''. The symptom is that when a thermocouple is connected the temperature in MegaTune will display 0 with short spikes to what seems to multiples of 64 degrees at random intervals, about 1-2 times every second (this happens with nothing connected too). '''But...''' - If I put the thermocouple under a flame the temperature will stop fluttering and remain at 0. The input on the MCP3208 measures analog voltages that are appropriate for the ambient temperature. Using the same thermocouple (measuring ambient temperature I get): At the AD597 outputs * 0.29 V for EGT1 (top chip) * 0.19 V for EGT2 (bottom chip) At the MCP3208 : * 0.115 V on MCP3208_CH5 (EGT1) * 0.082 V on MCP3208_CH4 (EGT2) The measured voltages react in the expected way when the thermocouple is put under the flame (1.5 Volt ++), but this seems to be ignored. '''Q:''' Is the MCP3208 fried? (I think not..) '''Q:''' Or is there something I have forgotten to configure that has changed? '''Q:''' What happened to the egt_ variables ? '''Q:''' Only one remains! Does it work for both channels? Vital information! I have made the AREF modification by shorting with a piece of wire, and it works wonders for stability of analog inputs. ---- '''Genboard specific configuration''' This is a v3.2 with production number 127. Both triggers are configured for Hall. Ignition outputs ||00||IGBT (Currently used to drive an MSD 6A)|| ||01||IGBT|| ||02||IGBT|| ||03||IGBT|| ||04|| SDA (PD1) - on JP1 connector (current default for AntiLagSystem)|| ||05|| SCL (PD0) - on JP1 connector || ||06||IGBT|| ||07||Ground for SCL and SDA || EGT - only first input used. LCD and PS2 - are brought through a DSUB25 as described here : GenBoard/BuildProcedures/LCDconnect MAP - MPX4250AP 250kPa=2.5 bar (1.5 bar boost) using a push-in connector in the front plate.
