Output on?

Post by turboed22 »

My input on/pin for functions do not have a drop down menu to select the correct output for the feature. Why is this?

What version of TunerStudio are you running?
What version firmware?

Shoot, that is exactly what I tested it on, and it is there for me....

It will look like that if the ECU Parameter isn't found in the configuration, that parameter would be :boost_ctl_pins
There are no configuration settings that need to be on for that.

Can you send me your msq, or possibly zip up your whole project dir and send that.

If you can do the whole project, leave the log files out :)

I had to go into Megatune and put some settings on, but they still dont work. I am also troubleshooting that.
I just realized my MSQ is still saved where Megatune is. Is this a problem? Where do the MSQ's go in the project file?

Here is my MSQ:

By default the msq's will go in the root of the project. But it will remember anywhere you want to put them.

Your ini file has been editied? Check out these lines:

Code: Select all

xXuS      boost_ctl_pins = bits, U08, 68, [0:3], "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "Fidle", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID","INVALID"
xXMS      boost_ctl_pins = bits, U08, 68, [0:3], "INVALID", "IAC1", "IAC2", "INVALID", "JS11", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "Fidle", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID", "INVALID","INVALID"
boost_ctl_pins is the parameter you need, but for some reason you have 2 entries for that and there are obscure characters beginning the lines that invalidate the entries.

For some reason, those characters are at the beginning of many rows.

You should replace the ini with the one that originally came with your firmware.
Copy the attached to the folder:
[ProjectFolder]\projectCfg\

You will get some errors when you open your msq as all those renamed parameters will no longer exist. I would check all those settings.
Or preferably, just connect up to your controller and save a new msq.

Those are from the base.ini file which is in the source directory (ms2extra directory) of the release. That file is used to generate the MS and uS ini files from the make file and must not be used as the ini file for TS (or Megatune).

Ahhh, it looked like there was a structure to those xXuS and xXMS...
