get error : file "vems.hex" is missing.
duplicate from report: http://vems.hu/vemstune/bugreports/reports.php?cmd=view&key=zprqad
Hello Rico_pl,
Upgrade to firmware higher than 1.2.11 requires bootloader upgrade,
please follow the procedures on:

Best regards, Dave
Thanks Dave, as I bought the car with VEMS unit (Escort Cosworth), I have set Trigger to "Lancia_cosworth".
My first error report shows I have trigger signals but RPM is 0 while cranking. Acc. to WIKI I should use firmware 1.2.26+.
Is this correct ? Or should it work also with 1.2.11 ?
I cannot see why RPM stays 0 while cranking. Fuel is injecting.
BR, Rico
Hello Rico,
To assist you in your startup/trigger debug, i would need the following:
- a triggerlog of engine cranking 8-10 seconds no IGN or INJ fuses
- a vemslog of the same sequence
Using these i can get a beter understanding of whats going on.
You can upload these files to the FileArea and link here or fire a sharing report (from VT) and link that. We'll work from there.
Best regards, Dave
Hi Dave,

Hello Rico,
I have reviewed your triggerlog and vemslog, this trigger type should work with special trigger type = Normal, Tdc after the trigger is likely to be around 60deg, use a timing light to verify and adjust.
I have attached a corrected config (having these suggested changes) to your sharing report.
Best regards, Dave
Thanks I will test this. But why is RPM =0 ?
I thought it triggers on TDC so 0 degree ?
BR, Rico
Hello Rico,
When using simple trigger with camsync, rpm will show 0 when cam sync is not accepted (or not seen), so without sync it will not show rpm.
With the corrected settings that should hopefully be solved.
Best regards, Dave
Thanks Dave, but I do not understand the 60 degree value.
If I set TDC both teeth (prim, sec) are on the sensors,so
0 degree.
Sorry for all questions, you can give me your Paypal and I
can make a donation.

Hello Rico,
Lets take it one step at a time, with the corrected config do you have:
- good rpm and sync ?
- spark on all cylinders ?
If so adjust tdc_delay so commanded timing advance lines up with your timing mark. Its recommended to force a fixed advance via:
- VT->Starting/Idle->Priming, Cranking, Afterstart Setup->Cranking Ignition Advance (cranking only, initial setup).
- later check (again) via VT->Tools->Ignition lock (when engine running)
Ignition base (verify with strobelight)
- small adjustments can be done with tdc_delay (1/2 crankdegree steps)
- bigger (eg. 6 .. 30 crankdegree depending on wheel) steps: it is recommended to choose the first trigger tooth so that tdc_delay is in the range of 60-100deg.
- finally the spark advance (tuning) in 1/4 crankdegree steps
Hi Dave, I uploaded latest log in sharing report.
RPM is now ok. In Test Mode a spark is there.
How is the First Trigger Tooth defined ?
- tooth0 is the tooth after the missing tooth.
- eg. TDC after the trigger = 66 deg + First Trigger Tooth=6 (*6 deg for 60-2 wheel) means TDC is 66+36=102 deg after tooth0
Thanks, but I have no missing tooth. Ford has only 4 teeth wheel.(+ 1 tooth dizzy/distributor)
I use COP kit so using strobe is difficult. I will try.

Hi Dave, no luck it won't start.What would be the FTT on
my setup ?
If I modify the sectrig (30 degree before TDC) would that help ?
Thanks, Rico
