Ok. Settings circled in red. It's in FCEdit universal and not in FCEdit FD3s

Chuck's notes do not say anything about it.

Anyone?

 

I have the universal FC EDit so I'll take a stab at this one.

looks to me like the scale across which the water temp corrections occur. so at 10C and PIM of 4864 (way in vacuum) correction is 1.578 (I believe that's the correction multiple), and at PIM 14848 (about 7 psi) and 10C, correction would be 1.50 .

I can't see any reason to change this unless you changed the number on the right to scale water temp correction for higher boost. But you shouldn't be in high boost when the engine is cold anyway.

 

Would it be correct to change those values when I recalibrate MAP sensor?

 

somebody else can chime in on this, but I don't see it making much of a difference, or it'll run worse before it runs better

 

I agree it won't make difference. Interesting though.

 

That is not accessable with the beige box.

Page 29 of the PFC manual states that:
left column is for low load and right column is high load.

Logic tells us that the PIM ABS values listed are related to pressure values for when the columns are used. Use like any of the other pressure tables in the PFC/DL. To use the right column sooner, lower the value for the right pressure.

If you calibrate your map sensor so that any PIM ABS value is affected in any of the tables, then logic dictates you would also have to change them to keep the same change at the same pressure as before.

I allways use 5% more for the right column than the left and never had any cold running problems. Wheer as Mazda uses less on the right side.

 

I have beige box and see them. Didn't try to write them though..

 

What you displayed is a black box screen, not a beige box screen unless your later box is different than earlier boxes.

What version is shown on the FC-EDIT last tab?

 

2.125

Here is a story. I got FC-Edit universal before reading about black/beige box. I used FC-Edit universal with beige box and was able read/write. Didn't have any problems.

Then I read about old version for beige boxes. I downloaded it and tested. found some differences. But they both work for me.

Should I get error from FC-Edit universal if my box wasn't compatible?

 

 

I have had my biege box for 5-6 years, those fields are editable for me. I am using the universal software version 2.1xx

Chuck, maybe you aren't using the latest version.

 

I asked in FC-Edit group on Yahoo and got response that it's fine to use FC-Edit universal latest version with beige box.

 

I see what you are doing, using beige box but with Universal software. I have tried that and it also works as shown.

So we must quit using the term beige/black box, and us the term FD3S or UNIV software.

I do not normally use the UNIV software with my box as it is less tested than the last version of DF3S software.

Maybe I should test to see if the version affects logging rates.

 

Btw, Chuck. If anything - your laptop and then software will affect logging rate.
Faster laptop with fast disk should give more "frames". It's when program can't write/display all data coming it starts to "skip"

PFC will not work slower/faster depending on what you logging

 

The DL output does vary with what you are recording and which software you are running. See new thread.
