I'm still digesting all of the info in the FAQ's & megamanuals out there to plan my Megasquirt project. WRT ignition, the FAQ on this board states the following:

"For the V3 board, you actually already have a single vr sensor conditioner, so you have 2 choices: cut two opposing teeth out of the CAS, and use only the single built-in vr sensor conditioner, or build a second vr sensor conditioner (lm1815 works)... you can do that in the v3 board's proto area, or you can just get error*'s daughterboard, and only build/use one of the lm1815 circuits on there."

My question is where do I find "error*s daughterboard" referenced above? Google just found me some references to it on this forum, but no pointers to where I could get one. Is this a kit, like the MS itself or is it just a schematic diagram that would require me to fabricate a circuit card & acquire all the parts myself? If it's the latter, I think it might be a lot easier to find a spare CAS and start cutting teeth. I'm inclined NOT to mess with the v3 board proto area, since I don't want to risk buggering up the whole MS unit.

Thanks!

 

DIYAutoTune.com sells the daughterboard. It has the second LM1815, plus all the other cool controls you always wanted: boost, nitrous, launch/flat shift, and sequential shift light.

 

I don't see that board at DIYautotune listed anywhere, but you can obtain the complete kit (circuit board and labled components)from glensgarage.com .Service/communication can be a little slower as I gather this is a side hobby for glensgarage.

If you need just the dual VR conditioners then this is a very good choice(at the bottom of the page) as it has a couple of circuit refinements over the error* circuits and also includes 4 adc outputs.Jbperf's communication and service from what I have gathered off the MSextra site is excellent.The only caveat is you will have to source the components from someone like "digikey" as he only sells the bare circuitboards at the moment.

Yes, correction the daugherboard is from glensgarage.com

 

Glen's Garage has been a little slow to respond lately, so I would not order there.

Ken,
FYI, I am now shipping immediately, and I have some items not available elsewhere, such as the error* daughterboard. In any case, I don't charge customer credit cards until orders ship.

Thanks glen, I have heard from Bruce/Al that you are back on top of things, so I will take my recommendation not to order there back.
