Oil pressure and fuel pressure sensors.

What oil and fuel pressure sensors work with the E11? I noticed that there are no parameters to adjust so i have to use the one they intended but i do not see any on their site.

Thanks
Allen

Any 0-5V sensor will work. The ECU can be calibrated. You first have to enable the sensor in the Aux Input page. Once it's enabled go to Setup>Sensor Setup>Calibrate Sensors and select the sensor you want to calibrate.

I've used sensors from FJO and been happy with them. I think software 1.71 had some bugs with being able to calibrate the sensors. Can't remember if it was 1.71 or 1.62 but I know one of them had me swearing. 1.89 works like a charm though.

Yeah all that works nice in 1.89, EGT, Boost, fuel and oil press, etc.

On 1.71 we didnt log AFR's correctly, it displayed it though.

But the new calibration options in ECU Manager and the Platinum units is just perfect and sooo easy to do.

Thanks guys, i forgot about the sensor calibration page.


Claudio, why is it that the E11 can only log 1 EGT channel? It seems it should be able to do as many as there are channels available for.

I ain't Claudio but...

Basically you get what Haltech thought you needed. When the Platinums were first released they only had inputs for single sensors as well. Myself and other bitched from the get go and the issue was corrected in one of the first software updates. I still feel there should be more options. With the E8/11 you're kinda stuck because it's very, very unlikely there will be any more development there.

Yeah, there is a fluke to our benefit on the E8/E11 software when it comes to O2 sensors, the software doesnt complain if you select multiple intputs as Wideband O2, they all have to be the same type/brand since you can only input once calibration, so this lets you actually have upto 7 WBO2 sensors connected at the same time.

But when it comes to the EGT sensor, the software throws a warning saying you've already selected another input with this function.

Who knows maybe we'll get one final revision of E8/E11 software at some point.
