I get the same error mentioned above on my laptop, but no problems on my desktop. Works fine on a friend's laptop too. All three are running WinXP.

FASTHATCH... Do you sell the interface box that should end up being part of the complete setup when your finished programming.? Please take your time to answer as i need some sort of interface to my PowerFC.

You could respond to my private mail. imthefly@gmail.com

Fasthatch is still working one getting a box manufactured for a good price. He has made a prototype--read back in some of the earlier posts. If you want something now I'd suggest you order a datalogit.

No problem. My engine will not be ready for tuning till mid 2007. just wondering if that is a reasonable time frame to get the box ready for the crowd.

hey fasthatch, about 1 1/2 years in the making hows the progress going? I work in a small engineering firm who manufactures their own PC-based testing instruments and we send out PCB and components out to have them populate. Are you doing the same or inhouse soldering?

I'm going to be ordering a datalogit soon (within the next month or two) and wondering if this product will be available soon?

Its allready available. Just download the software and it will work with the datalogit. It seems some people are having problems with the latest version including myself. However its still a great program and worth getting to know.

I was referring to the hardware:

Target price is USD 199. Compared to the USD 399 for the Datalogit that's a fair target price i think and a 50% drop for a better box and software (i hope you like FC Tune better than FC Edit).
I don't currently own a Datalogit and would purchase his box instead if it were available

"Good" news, I've been able to reproduce the crash with a clean Win2000 SP3 English installation. No problem on 6 other machines.

I'll figure out what's wrong now.

Its been awhile since I've checked the progress of FC Tune.

I must say very nice. It now opens the Skyline dat files and is able to view the majority of data..

HOWEVER, is it able to connect to the AP Engineering R32 PowerFC as of yet and datalog???????????

I remember last time you mentioned the AP Engineering R32 PowerFC uses an older method of data read/write.

Unfortunately not yet. But I've done some work to support the older models. I'll get in touch with you next week or next but one week.

----------------------------------------------------

I've fixed the problem why it crashed on some machines, 2 icons have caused the problem because they had alpha channels. New version is coming as soon as I've tested all changes, probably tuesday.

hey there FastHatch,

i just signed up to the forums simply for this thread. i drive a 180sx with a redtop SR20 in it and i'd be happy to help out in anyway as far as testing/debug etc goes. but first off i need to know, what sort of cable can i use to connect my laptop to the PFC? can i simply just convert from the ps/2 connector to usb, or do i need to have the datalogit system? is there a cable i can build.. any instructions?

thanks a lot! can't wait for an official release of FC Tune!

You need the datalogit box inorder to have an interface to communicate between your computer and the PFC. Do some reading and searching in the section and the forum and all your "newbie" ? will be answered.
