3.5 JS4 and JS5 custom sensor inputs?

[MS2tester]

will the new code version be able to assign custom sensor curve,s to JS4 and JS5
the same as the air ,coolant temp now?
i sort of anticipated

[jsmcortina]

Nope. Why did you anticipate that?

wel since you can already do an ADC count
i thought it would be a small step to sensor curves
maybe people want to log oil pressure, oil temperatuur , fuel pressure would be my favorite

But you can add a custom.ini in your TunerStudio project and put the calibration in there. You need to either put a mathematical equation there or use a file with the calibration table. And you need to use the correct ini file format.

can you give an example or a post with an example?

This was referenced in the old MS2 web manuals:

http://www.msextra.com/doc/ms2extra/MS2 ... m#addgauge

I have not found a matching section in the new documentation.

[MS2tester]

well that,s definitely something to try out
but you would want a NTC sensor with a linear curve or close to it
also hope shadow dash is gonna pick up on this with a custom .ini

that,s one of the main reasons i you would want as many configurable inputs as possible of the V3 board itself
since shadow dash can,t display/log the CAN data of the MS2
or is this fixed already?

As I said, you can use a file for your calibration if you have a non-linear sensor. So instead of the linear equation, you put something like this in your ini file:

yourTemp = { table( adx, "yourcalibration.inc") }

There are examples of the inc file format in the TunerStudio directory. Or ask Phil on the TS forum.

ok not what i would call easy
but it,s doable

will see if i can figure out the .INC stuff

[MS2tester]

with a lot of help from phil it,s sorted now

[MS2tester]

also added the pressure sensor now
as these would be the 2 main sensors
custom.ini in projectCfg map of project
custom .INC in inc map of project

Thanks for posting that PDF. The manual page you presented an extract from is very outdated and not wholly accurate, I've already started working on an updated version for the current manuals and am aiming to have that done within a few days.

i hope that,s going to include the easy way of making a custom .INC

maybe it,s also an idea to have the custom.ini already included when you set up new project
with text calculus examples as to get an idea how it works with links to the setup manual page number

That's a good idea and would be worth posting in the TunerStudio sub-forum.
