It desn't work. The problem is that I need to deal with both a signed byte and an unsigned byte in the same equation. This is for a Ford diesel timing map. Each value is represented by two separate bytes that are right next to each other in the bin. The first byte is unsigned and represents decimal ...

For all who stumble across this post... It doesn't work right now. Hopefully they will get a solution soon but, right now, it's broken.

Do I need to create a second "no use" map to create the second scalar? I don't see an option to create a second scalar within the same map.

The cell uses two bytes of data to represent the value. The first byte is the decimal value and the second byte is the multiplyer. The first byte isn't signed but the second is. The formula that works for positive values is :(((X>>8)*(10/64))/10)+(4*(A&0xFF)). The formula that I need would be: (...

I need to be able to tell an equation that a byte is signed such that FF == -1, FE == -2, FD == -3 etc. Right now it's seeing them as 255, 254, 253, etc... Can Tunerpro RT work with a signed byte?

That didn't work. The program still shows up as being registered when I re-install. Something else is still residual.

I can try re-installing the drivers, but I'm not so sure that will do it. When I tried the Ostrich, the computer installed the drivers fresh since It had never been connected to an Ostrich before. It also works on older versions - just not the newer one. Can a .dll be corrupt? Are they all stored in...

I have been using Build#5.00.4532.00 for almost 5 years now, with an Ostrich, on my BMW. For data tracing, all I did was emulate, have a good.xdf, and press the little "A" at the top of the map that I wanted to trace. Now I have a ford truck and I have a quarterhorse, and it would appear t...

I tried reverting to some older versions. Build 5.00.5197.00 and older connect just fine on this computer. Version number 5.00.8(something) will not connect. It used to connect, but now it does not. I am also getting an error now that says "Unable to extract IO.SYS. Log in as a user who has suc...

I just tested it with another of my cars using an Ostrich. I get the same thing... Tunerpro RT won't see the Moates hardware and connect. This is a car that I have been using with Tunerpro RT for YEARS. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

My installation of Tunerpro RT on my Winows7 computer has become glitchy. I am using a Quarterhorse. Everything was working fine except that I could not get hit tracing to work. I was messing with the DA Assoc. tab without having a ADX file set up. The program crashed and Windows shut it down. Windo...

Thanks for the info. I have been perusing the Thirdgen website. It seems to be the place to get information. My already slow project has been pushed back a little. I toasted a rod bearing in my DD at the autoX Saturday. Been busy getting that rebuilt and back on the road.

OK, so we're back to a HEI dizzy and a 7 wire ICM?

Hmmm... I need to go to the junkyard and look for a stock 305 and see how GM did it. Maybe I can "frankenstein" some stock 1990 stuff onto my 1976 block...

Well, it was probably no big deal to get the reluctor made with your granddad being a machinist and all. However, I made a gear once. It worked, but the spacing was less than exact. It was a quick lesson in the subject of "tolerances." A reluctor wheel is something I would like to have cor...

@JP86SS That link was golden! It was quite a chase to follow that thread, plus all of the others it linked to, and the ones that those linked to, but I ended up with about 4 "saves." I can take a V6 memcal (cheap), short the cylinder select to ground to get the V8 injector timing, forget a...

OK, so I can just use a HEI dizzy and an ICM (7 pin) and I am ready to go? this seems ridiculously simple. Why didn't you do that for your Z? It looks like your pickup is much more elaborate than a simple "dummy" cap for a dizzy that is no longer used. Also, which manual will have the best...

As you have probably guessed, I am putting a 1976 305 into a Jaguar with a 7730. I know I need to fabricate (or buy) some sort of crank trigger and cam trigger. The Motronic on the BMW wants a 60/2 signal on the crank and uses the distributor to take care of everything else. I know the 7730 can run ...

Holy schnikeys Batman! 101 powerpoint tutorial, 202 powerpoint tutorial, autotune, support for whatever option you want... If I had a GM with a different ECU, I would probably switch just because of what is available! This should be a piece of cake! If I didn't have my Motronic running so well on th...

Thanks! I looks like I am on the right track...

I love Tunerpro! I am using it on a Motronic in my turbo BMW. The data tracing has made cake out of the tuning process. I just have one suggestion to make it even better. I tune for WOT and part-throttle differently and I would like to be able to do the same thing for both. In WOT, I turn on tracing...

This may be a better question than the one about the memcal; Should I use a different ecm? I am taking the V12 and automatic transmission out of my Jaguar and putting in a SBC V8 with a 5-speed manual transmission. I am using a 1976 305 bottom end from a nova - completely stock. I will be running tw...

Ah! Thanks! I've been reading on Thirdgen.org anyway. I'll look for that memcal mod. Soldering a wire is a no-brainer for me.

LOL... I understand your concern... The knock stuff I built myself. It just happens to be in the Jag already. It was necessary because the factory tuning sucked on that engine. It worked quite well and I was thinking of putting it in the BMW, but I would still need the MEMCAL info to be able to inte...

Everything in my junkyard that used to have a 350 is pretty gutted by the time it makes it out there. Even then, I think most guys are putting carburetors (I just threw-up in my mouth a little) on them. Maybe the computers are still out there. I'll check. I've noticed that the V8 memcals are $150.00...

I am familiar to tuning. I have retuned my motronic to run my 10psi turbo on my M20 BMW engine - better than factory! But I am starting on a new project. I am putting a small block Chevrolet V8 in a jaguar and I am going to run it with the 7730 ecu. I know the big issue is the V8 memcal and, other t...

Got it. Thanks.

I want to experiment with changing the scalars on the maps for fuel. Is there a nice way to make Tunerpro show the RPM values, or do I need to just do this in Excel and then manually enter the changes into the XDF labels and the bin? It doesn't look like there is a way in tunerpro to make one cells ...
