Ok guys,here's what you've been waiting for.Some logs for you to download so you can have a bit of a play around with your laptop software without the need to have an ecu plugged in.....

Now you need to download these into a folder on your C drive.
Open the Microtech software & then open the data logger (just press alt + l )
On the right side of the logging screen you will see a button "open log"
Click on open log and it will open up a window & ask you where you want to load the files from.Simply click on the folder that you downloaded the logs to,then click on the log you want to view & away you go!!!!!!
Have a play around with all the functions on there.you cant stuff anything up!!!!!
Once you have a log up on the screen,exit out of the logging screen back to the main start up screen & select the data (alt + d) screen.You will see the red button flashing "PLAY".press play to view the log in real time playback mode.
If you have any questions just ask.I'm sure you will all find it pretty easy to work your way around it!!!

For they guys that are having troubles downloading the files...............
Right click on the link
choose "save target as"
when the new window opens up,there will be a little box right down the bottom that says "save as type"
change that to "all files"
And proceed to download.
This should get it working.
Jon


Thanks to A777 for helping me out with this one!!!!!

 

where can i get this software from ??
TIA

 

From Microtech. If there is a version on the internet, it's illegal and I hope no one is spreading that crap around. Sorry.

 

Why do you hope no one is spreading it around? If he doesent have the ECU its useless anyway. If he does im sure Microtech would be happy to give him a copy.

 

10SECRX7 (Dale) has been e mailing it to guys.I have the official OK from Microtech to do this also so everything is fine Redwood.It will be available to download from my website very soon also.
If you have the software loaded onto your computer,you can download these logs & use the data logger & the playback fuction (plays back runs in real time) without the need to have it connected to an ECU.
Programming the computer will need the laptop adaptor anyway so i guess that's why Microtech aren't stressed out at us making the software available.They will get there money when you buy the adaptor as it comes with the software as a package!!!Without the adaptor,all you can do is use the logger & playback function.

Could you please provide me with a site address where i can get hold of the software ?
You refer to a ECU is this the car's computer? or something else ?

 

I am running a mtx 8 on my stock 13bt in my 72 beetle
The car refuses to rev over 6K at .3bar and then nothing over 5K when i up the boost to .6 bar
Did a compresion test and from what i could C i only had 90 odd PSI front and rear
Could it be computer or compresion that is to low ??

TIA

 

How can i get logs from my current mtx8 ?
So that when i get the software i can run and hopefully better understand the program setup on my car
Thanks for the help sofar

 

I'm kind of confused when viewing throught these sample data logs. How come the AFR (I'm assuming this is Air/Fuel Ratio) is always 14.7 accross the board in every data log???? Kind of confused on this. I am assuming that this isn't the actual data log of the AFR since there is no fluctuation in the numbers and tuning to 14.7 is kind of crazy.

 

everything is at wide open throttle, since the tps is at %99 and that everything is shown 4.5k rpm and up so that's no cruising area. But isn't 14.7 really lean?

 

When you say wont rev over 5k does it miss its butt off??? if so check your mixtures, chances are they are way off and when you raise the boost it gets even worse,

is your map sensor hooked up properly??

Dale

 

There is no oxy sensor installed in the car, the ECU will just read 14.7.

14.7 under load is very lean, at crusing it is perfect for emmisions but i have seen cars that like to cruse as lean as 18:1 when emmisions are not a issue.,

Dale

 

No miss or anything just feels like i drive head first into a wall like if someone cuts the power
like when you have really good brakes and stand on them to stop from 160-0 in 2sec's

The map sensor is in the MTX 8 unit right ??
If yes then ya its hooked up correctly
What i find when i take the pipe out of the ECU is she miss and jerks at 3k +
put it back and i hit the wall at 5k
Goes cleanly until 5k then game over
And when i run .3bar at 6k game over
No errors i can find on the ECU so i am lost

I even changed the ECU into another Beetle running the same setup also series 4 13BT etc and he C's 8K clean no problems

 

Sounds loke you either have a problem with your secondary injectors, their staging % or fuel supply. List your injector style and size withthe staging % and we may be able to assist.
Regards-Anthony

 

Yes i agree with anthony, check the socondary injectors to see if they are working and check fuel supply,

was the other beetle the exact same setup as yours?? same injectors/turbo etc as yours??

 

YES we bought the engines from the same place did everything together etc and from the out side everything looks the same on the engines
We both have the pink injectors on all 4 same wiring
same turbo same pipes same ECU same Fuel pump plugs coils dissy etc
Only difference is tyres paint job seats and carpets
other than that they are the same
and then the power in his car is more than mine
We basicaly did everything except for the water pipes together on the engine side of things

Could my injectors be dirty or ???
How can i test injectors ?? i presume take them out and then ???

Fuel pressure is 3.2 bar to 3.6 bar under boost flow i dont know how to messure that ??
I did a test when we did the conversions and filled a 2l coke bottle to the brim in only like 10 sec's with the fuel pump so i am sure it flows enough if this is how you test it

How do i know when the car is runnig what injector bank is active is there away to test this ??

TIA

 

Ok tell me how and i will do it
I have a mtx 8 with a 4line handset
and i need to do .............
TIA

I guess pen and paper ???

 

anyone with the software yet
if yes please mail it to Charlesk@glotec.co.za
TIA

 

Have you been playing around with the program at all or is it still running on the base map?????
Was the computer originally ordered for a 13b turbo????
Have you tried re loading the base map & starting from scratch????

 

I thought i just reloaded the base map from MEM 1 but the settings stayed the same
Now either i am doing it wrong (help)
or the base map is not so base anymore
What to do HELP

 

yea can somebody shoot me a copy of the software? im getting 2 lt8's

 

ok i got the software but i cant save the files as anything but a txt file...no mater what i do wtf?

 

Save them under "all files" insteat of "txt files"
