Closed Loop Idle Settings - DashPot Adder Error/Issue

[goodysgotacuda]

I have had an ongoing issue with my MS3 Gold box and the Closed Loop Idle Setting DashPot Adder.


If I adjust the DashPot adder with the engine running, it works perfectly. Upon quitting/reloading TunerStudio, I get the following error message and the DashPot adder returns to the default 7.8%. Has anyone run into this, or have a suggestion to work around it?

The screenshots are as follows:
1) Changing the dashpot adder value, I changed it to 10.2% then saved the tune
2) Quitting/Reloading TunerStudio > I get an error message > Error message shown > TunerStudio reverts back to 7.8% [default value]

Hmm, Looks like an ini error with two settings using the same memory with different scales.

Code: Select all

      pwmidle_dp_adder         = scalar, U08, 375, "%", 0.392, 0.00000, 0, 20, 1 
      pwmidle_dp_adder_steps   = scalar, U08, 375, "steps", 1.00000, 0.00000, 0, 20, 0 ; same but steps

TS is enforcing the limit on pwmidle_dp_adder_steps of 20 with a scale of 1, that forces the limit of pwmidle_dp_adder to 7.84

These lines should be changed to this in the ini:

Code: Select all

      pwmidle_dp_adder         = scalar, U08, 375, "%", 0.392, 0.00000, 0, 20, 1 
      pwmidle_dp_adder_steps   = scalar, U08, 375, "steps", 1.00000, 0.00000, 0, { IdleCtl == 3 ? 20 : 51 }, 0 ; same but steps

Thanks for the feedback but it is way over my head!

Is this something I should be able to fix myself?

This has already been resolved in the current MS3-pre1.5.1 beta.

Sorry, it wasn't really for you as much as to give the firmware guys a heads up... Sounds like James already has it covered though.

For you, if you update your project to use the attached ini, you should be good.

You'd mailed me about it a month or so ago.

I'll give it a shot, I've never changed an ini before.
Thanks!

Am I supposed to hit the "other/browse" box and find the new .ini file?

Thanks!
