next version KManager ideas...

[ProspeedCTR]

Good Call Dude - and H man answered. ctrl M and P are sweet goodies.

Also need to add the rest of the s manager goodies....


1. vtec w/ min. throttle % by gear
2. MIL shift light by rpm
3. A/C switch off by rpm

Dunno about mill shift light! That would confuse me as I watch for the mil to know if there is knocking! Now A/C switchoff by rpm is pretty neat -- however, continually switching the ac on and off is bad on the ac unit.

That sounds like a good idea (MIL shift light by rpm) and you could turn it on and off as you so desire.

What about a misfire counter per cylinder and total misfire count like you can view with a Honda Diagnostic System. This would let us know if there are any problems with each cylinder.

Edit Interpolated tables checkbox like "Edit All Tables" so when reviewing a datalog, editing say high cam fuel 20 degrees would modify 30 as well if the datalog point was between 20 and 30. I use edit all tables quiet a bit for, but it destroys potentially good tables for 0 and 10 for instance. As a general rule, after using edit all tables, I always start with a fresh base map before doing individual cam tuning as I don't trust the fuel curves -- this feature may help preserve fuel curves that don't really need adjustment.


Oh, and I found a bug, which is somewhat trivial and obvious what is going on -- the open file dialog in kmanager seems to call CreateFile blindly on the result of the file open dialog and assumes that the file is read only if it doesn't exist. I typed in "jrsc" one time instead of "*jrsc*" to find all the jrsc cals and it told me the file was read only. Like I said, nothing major, just though I would mention it.

On the parameters closed loop tab, when closed loop is unchecked, add a drop-down or selection for 0, 10, 20, etc. to force a particular cam angle. This would be helpful when tuning for fuel on each cam angle, so we won't need to mess with the cam tables.

How about the abillyt to ajust the Speedometer when you change your tire size so that its correct?

I thought we already could do that?

The 02-04 ECU does not process the speed sensor signal. There is no way the ECU can change the speed. Repeat: the 02-04 ECU has nothing to do with the speedometer.

The 02-04 ECU in 05 is different, because the ECU processes the speed signal, thus a speedo correction can be applied.

Hi Hondata, Here are some requests:

Let me know if these are feasible or not.

1) Under options->settings->display tab - Can we have the option to display any signal - you only have for 10 sensors.

2) On the sensor, display and logging, be able to add in new virtual sensor. Meaning using multiple sensor readings to calculate a new value, log and display this value in realtime. For example, I would like to calculate realtime miles per gallon. I would like use the number from the sensors to calculate some mile per gallon value and display/log it realtime.

3) Be able to customize different values for map and rpm values. What I mean is to be able to define different map pressure values so I can more accurately tune. So, under a certain pressure, it may be more critical at that point, so then it would be better to have more tuning sections there.

4) Also, wondering about the angles available - 0,10,20,30,40,50. Is there a way to enable customization of this also. This will enable finer tuning between angles.

5) Under sensors, be able to show what sensors you want to see. Maybe going back to item 2 where we have option(customization) to display what we like under display or sensors.

6) Under temperature compensation, what does this alter - fuel? Can you enable to alter also ignition.

7) Under the fuel adjustionment feature, when logging, it shows the fuel adjustment values. Is there a way to apply the values I select to the fuel curve automatically?

1. Noted.
2. Noted.
3. You can currently do this.
4. We are unlikely to change the 10 degree cam table spread.
5. Noted.
6. Fuel.
7. No. We watned to avoid automatically applying the fuel changes to the fables, otherwise they will quickly become a mess. A human has to spot the patterns in the fuel changes and apply corrections in an intelligent manner.

Thanks for the consideration. Some considerations:

Item 6 - Can you also add in a temperature compensation for ignition - or does temperature affects on ignition not affect knock?

On item 7, I understand that a person would have to analyze the data then make a judgement and apply the necessary change. I find that most of the time the data is correct, and I would have to manually apply the changes to the fuel 6x(per cam angle). Now, if I add a modification, then I have to redo this all again. I want to cut this iterative process through automation. So, my suggestion is to enable the user to select certain portions of the map & apply the change for that cam angle only. Any suggestions would be useful as to automate this process.

Thanks,

fvang

in the nitrous tabs under fuel & ignition settings: small fuel & ignition table based on rpm instead of the crude "one size fits all" adjustments.

something like...

rpm fuel ignition
5000 ___ ___
5250 ___ ___
5500 ___ ___
5750 ___ ___
etc...

if this has been suggested before, sorry for the repeat.

Can this suggestion be implemented to KManager? It would be very handy to have.

[BG RSX]

how about a way to trigger the lean cuts based on input? ...just like the nitrous tabs (always on, brake switch, etc...)

this way we can have different lean cut a/f's: one for n/a and one for n2o right now, there is no way of using lean cut with nitrous because with the lower desired a/f lean cut (<13), it gets tripped all the time running n/a.

Possible to be able to alter the size of the display window? Reason being, I have my laptop connected by the S-video out to my indash monitor, this is good, but if I was able to alter the size of the display window, I could fill the indash monitor with just the display versus having the open area of KManager in the background. Also being able to alter the display size regardless of just 1 or all 10 monitors going. Also like the suggestion for other display choices being implemented.

How about an add-in for EGT? I know there is not a sensor stock for this, or is there that I am unaware of, but if I were to add in a sensor for this, I would like to tie it in with the K-Pro and also have it as a display item. I may be in the vast minority for wanting this, but knowing the EGT will make tuning even easier IMO.

As always thanks for any consideration.

I was going to ask for user defineable RPM and MAP break points, but I just realized that you can already do that by right clicking on the value in the column/row header. sweet.

Stock breakpoints worked fine for stock redline. Now that I'm revving higher, re-scaling the upper part of the map is key.
