Adding an Output Channel

Post by dggt6 »

Hello Guys,
I have had a second coolant sensor installed in my MS2 and it it working and logging well.
I also have the thermatic fan operating from the original coolant sensor.
I would now like to operate the fan from my second coolant sensor.

How do I make the second coolant sensor show up in the output channel drop down menu of TS3Beta?

Many thanks,
Doug

You should be able to do it with ADC6 or ADC7, whichever you have it connected to. You would be working with ADC values rather than temperature though.
Find the Manuals up top under Quick links: Manuals. :RTFM:

Many thanks Luke,
I might make the sensor wires longer so I can swap the connectors between the two sensors. Sounds easier than converting or reading ADC values!!.

Cheers,
Doug

Use the "Add Custom Channel Wizard"

New Channel Name: secondCLT

Input Channel will be the channel it is connected to and reads in ADC (generally adc6 or adc7)

Then give it the inc file or linear inputs. (CLT sensors generally use an inc file)


On the next page you can add a Gauge template that will show on the right click menu and the option to add it to your data logs.
