Wiki-spamming is not tolerated, will be removed, so it does NOT even show up in history. Spammers go away now. Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''Safety Mode ''' '''Problem:''' After firmware upload the config may be absolutely wrong. * '''If the recommended firmware upgrade process was not followed''' (eg. fuses not removed), in the past it could result in injectors open after boot ** => engine flooded with fuel or ignition fuse blown. ** this cannot happen with the correct procedure. But the procedure was inconvenient and some steps sometimes got forgotten. '''Solution:''' '''From firmware version 1.1.83 the Injector and ignition outputs are disabled by default, until they are enabled by''' either * '''a special firmware-version dependant configuration word ''' (named prohibit, 2 bytes) re-enables it ** naturally, after firmware upgrade, this word will be wrong, and need to be set. (in future VemsTune will set automatically after config upload). * '''OR''' - if using iButton anti-theft - , enabled by touching on the configured I-Button. ** needless to say, do NOT touch on, until uploading the correct config ---- '''Usage''' * To reenable the ECU: ** easy way: '''upload a proper config''' and VemsTune (newer than 2010-11-04) will set automaticaly. ** OR manually: set prohibit/iButton hign and low byte manually (do it only if the config on the ECU is verified and totally good) ---- '''Advanced users''' - will not be needed since VemsTune 2010-11-xx and newer calculates this and sets after config upload. Calculation example for prohibit variables: *bit 15: PS2-type *bit 14..13: 0 not using now *bit 12..10: firmware version first number *bit 9..7: firmware version second number *bit 6..0: firmware version third number *example: **non ps2 1 .1 83: **000 001 001 1010011= 0x04D3 -> prohibit high byte is decimal 4, prohibit low byte is decimal 211 There is a special code to prohibit variables which works with any firmware for developing, Use it only if nothing else works: 0xBEEF Optional: Add document to category: Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ... '''Bold''', ---- is horizontal ruler, <code> preformatted text... </code> See wiki editing HELP for tables and other formatting tips and tricks.
