Feature Request
I am only new to Megasquirt so I hope I am not repeating a request for something that is not technically possible
Basic/Load Settings > Tacho Output Dialog box has options for
Speed
Can be set to one of two options:
• Normal – an output pulse is generated matching each cylinder event, i.e., 4 cylinder engines have 4
pulses per engine cycle;
• Half speed – output runs at half speed. This can enable a 4-cylinder tacho to be used on an 8-cylinder
engine.
Probably the most common conversion is to drop a V8 where a 6 cyl used to live.
leaving a 6 cyl Tacho in the dash
Could a third option be added to Speed - 3/4 speed - output runs at three quarters speed. This enables a 6-cylinder tacho to be used on an 8-cylinder engine.
Cheers

Re: Feature Request
That's already supported in the current firmware.

Re: Feature Request
Thanks James Glade to here that
Could you supply a link to the latest Version

Re: Feature Request
I have upgraded Tunerstudio to the current version (2.6.19) and the MsII/Extra firmware to ver 3.4.0
Upon going to the Tacho dialog box the Speed dropdown box still has only 2 options Normal and Half
How do I get to Three Quarters speed ?

Re: Feature Request
You have posted in the MS3 development section. MS3 supports this, not MS2.
