Launch Control and Full Throttle Shift issue KManager V2.1.4

Conquistadore · Post by **Conquistadore** » Wed Jul 23, 2008 11:49 am

When I..

...enable the Launch Control and Full Throttle Shift.
...select Always On for the clutch switch.
...set Launch RPM Limiter to 5000.
...set Shift RPM Limiter to 5800.

The engine doesn't pass 5800 RPM although the REV Limiter is set to 8100.

It feels like I set the REV Limiter to 5800.

I am not so sure if the cut off is at 5000 or 5800 since I was reading it from the stock cluster and I was not datalogging.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

Thanks.

You cannot use always on for full throttle shift

You must use a switch with one of the inputs.

Wait why is that? I thought full throttle shift was enabled when the car is above transition speed and the clutch is pressed. What exactly needs to happen for this to work? Will just adding a switch work??

If you set the full throttle shift input to 'always on', then the ECU will think the clutch is always depressed, and will rev limit to the full throttle shift limiter.

right, but without an input, it does not know the difference between a full throttle shift revlimit and the over all revlimit.

Ok but I still cant visualize how an input switch will work in this case. Will the switch have to be activated by the clutch position or is the switch just something that I need to activate by hand??

It is activated by the clutch position. Please go to Help, Contents in KManager and read the information on the Launch Control settings and use of a clutch switch.

Completely missed the "Clutch Switch" section lol. Thanks
