ignition maps in tuner studio

Post by manx1641 »

Hi i've loaded my msq from megatune and every things fine except that my ignition map only appears to be in 2d so i can only move along 1 map site, is there something i need to turn on?

Heres the msq i've loaded to tuner studio,
the firm ware is 029y4 i think

i downloaded some one else s msq and opened it in tuner studio and the map was in 3d, so i've checked my msq in megasquirt and it is 3d, just it won't appear that way in tune!

Do you know what ini you used to setup your project?
It sounds like your project may not be using the right ini.

On the Menu:
Project --> Properties

In the dialog on the first tab, for ECU Definition you should see:
MS1/Extra 29y3 format***

Hey looking at the msq you posted, the Y axis is upside down. So the 3D table is kind of wacky looking. Perhaps this is what you mean?

The Y Axis "map" should go from high (at the top) to low at the bottom. Otherwise it won't run very good :)

Thanks LT401Vette, you were right on both counts, the ini was wrong and inverting the map bins has given me a 3d spark map, don't know how i got that the wrong way round glad i haven't up loaded it to the ecu yet,

thanks again, i'll be back soon with more questions, cheers and merry X Mas :D

Hi Vette.
I sent you couple mails to explain the problem with import/export, saving adv table.

Also an idea for 2 table in the same window for switch table option. Sent the picture.
