View Full Version : FAST Wide Band to V1

I have connected a wide band (FAST product 170402) to my EFI V1. Ground from the to pin D and signal to pin E. I have installed V7.5.5 and need to get the analog data to tune. What is the best PID list to use. I assume that I will need to create a table to convert FAST output signal to reflect AFR because there is not a wide band PID to select that matches FAST. FAST manual describes their output as pasted below.
I assume the High Res Mode is what I what. Can someone please instruct me the best why to get this working with EFI scan.? I have no problem posting my table after I build it. I would like to convert the signal to a multiplier like Joecar has stated.

FAST instruction states:
Simple Mode: This takes the output voltage and multiplies it by 10 to calculate the actual air/fuel ratio. Many external electronic air/fuel gauges use this signal type.

High Res Mode: This provides a 0 - 4.096 volt output signal. Certain digital gauges and data acquisition systems use this type of signal.

Narrow Band Simulator Mode: This provides a narrow band output signal that simulates many OEM style air/fuel sensors. This will allow you to use the wide-band style sensor the FAST™ Air/Fuel Meter uses not only to serve the air/fuel meter, but to also run the engine’s computer. This mode is compatible only with pre-OBDII vehicles.

PS: I looked and searched all around the forums before asking this simple question. I'm sure there is a sticky somewhere but I can not find it.

Thanks

Rusty,

I can make you calc pids for your FAST wideband unless someone already has some...

If it is linear, then a simple linear equation will be used.

If it is polynomial, then a polynomial equation.

If other, then a table (using the lookup() function).

Questions:

- Simple Mode: is this correct:
0V=0AFR, 5V=50AFR, linear in-between...?

- High Res Mode:
0V=what AFR...? 4.096V=what AFR...? Linear in-between...?

- Can the FAST wideband be programmed to output a user-defined V:AFR relation...?

Joecar,
Thanks, no one else has sent it. I spoke with FAST / Comp Cams and here is the info for the High Res mode only. Do not have the other 2 modes. Most likely not needed. Thanks for your help


HIGH RES: Linear
0 = 9.6 AFR
4.097 = 21 AFR
Calculation formula = (output voltage * 2.8) + 9.6 = AFR

V7.5.5 (Build 77) supports the FAST Wide Band, High Res Mode.

Yes, mr.prick is correct, build 77 supports the FAST wideband...

On the PIDs tab, click on the column heading "Parameter" to sort the pids...

you will see CALC.AFR_F1 and F2 and CALC.BEN_F1 and F2.

Problem solved. Thanks for the help. All working as expected.
