Most of this is obvious stuff but, maybe it will help a few people. :)

Connect/Disconnect to RR step #1

Download/Upload tune file step #2

Emulation on/off - must be on for RTACS to work :doh2:

Filter Sets - at least 1 filter must be configured

RR Control Panel - displays the control panel, technically step #1 :hihi:

Enable/Disable Edit Mask -select this, then highlight the cells you want untouched by RTACS,
then add the selected cells to the Edit Mask

Fine/Course Control - set values in the Roadrunner properties tab,one of these must be selected for RTACS to work

Column Data - value of linked PID from cal.link.txt
this must match the column data of the table you want to use RTACS with

Row Data - value of linked PID from cal.link.txt
this must match the row data of the table you want to use RTACS with

Data for RTACS - value of and, the linked PID that will alter the table with RTACS ,
if there are no values in these boxes you must configure the cal.link.txt or,
the PID linked in the cal.link text is not selected in the scan.exe

Accuracy % - cells stop adjusting within this limit

Minimum RTACS Limit - cells values will not go below this limit, if idle is rich try dropping this value

Maximum RTACS Limit – cells values will not go above this limit, make sure this is not too low when doing WOT tuning

cal.link.txt editing:
RTACS supports Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division as well as the current BEN factor percentage adjustment.
Just add the operator (+, -, * or /) you wish to use followed by a comma before the first PID name in the *.RRR key like this:
Bxxxx.RRR=+,<pidname> Leave it blank to use the standard BEN factor %.

Example #1:
;Desired Airflow
B4307.ROW=SAE.ECT
B4307.RRR=+,CALC.RAFIG,CALC.RAFPN,CALC.RAFACIG,CAL C.RAFACPN
This will ADD+ the logged RAFIG amount to B4307.

Example #2:
;High octane spark map
B5913.ROW=SAE.RPM
B5913.COL=GM.DYNCYLAIR_DMA,GM.CYLAIR_DMA,GM.DYNCYL AIR,CALC.CYLAIR
B5913.RRR=-,GM.KR
This will subtract- logged KR from B5913

Good job!
I'll add something worthwhile as soon as I get time.

To increase or decrease the amount by which the Roadrunner updates the values.....

Edit, Properties...

Click 'Roadrunner' tab.

I usually set the coarse control at something like 300. After 10 minutes of driving I'll knock it back to 100.
I then set fine control to 50, then another 10 minutes or so and I set it to 10 and keep on fine control for a while to get as close to perfect as possible.

In the circle that you have in purple,The small chip with the purple arrow facing down"PROGRAM RR PCM WITH SELECTED DATA" What exactlydoes that do?...............Paul

Very good question. I have no idea.

"Program Roadrunner PCM with selected data".
This programs the highlighted data only.
You must manually select the data in the table first.
Being able to upload a BIN while the car is running is awsome.

If you do not have the real time updates occurring that option allows you to send only the selected data to the ECM. Probably not something that you'd really use much, or seemingly at all :)

How do I see the calc BEN data in the map in the Scan Tool? Do I use the AutoVEPrimary.map and load it? I read how to do it before and did it but now I need to do it again.

If I don't have the AutoVEPrimary.map, what is the function to create it?

You deffinately should have the map Eric. I'm pretty sure they're all in there for the various widebands.

I use the {B101}Main VE table - PLX wideband BEN

You must have the PID selected, and monitoring or recording data.

Nice job Mr Prick, thanks. You might need to change your user name now.

Is RR compatible with an E38 PCM in a L98 Holden 6.0ltr?

And if so what would be required to connect with an existing Efi live account ( FS2 )

No, the RoadRunner is based on the LS1 PCM (i.e. made from GM part number 0411)...

i know this is an old thread, but has anyone tried to use a road runner on v8? i have yet to figure out how to put in my key to activate it, i show the cummins and tune upgrade but not the road runner. Do I need to install an older version to make this work?? Did they discontinue support for the road runner?

Roadrunner is run via the V7 tunetool (i.e. the calibration editor)... there is no V8 tunetool (calibration editor).


You install both V7 and V8...
V7 is used for editing the calibration, and logging for tuning (maps).
V8 is used for flashing the ECM/TCM, and updating FSV2 (and now has maps).

And... enter your RR license in the V7 tunetool, go Help->Register EFILive...

You can see in my pic that I have 2 RR's.

Roadrunner support will not be migrated to V8 software, it will forever only be a V7 function.

I am finally licensing my RR for Efilive. I cannot find cal_links.txt in the latest 7.5 version? Do I have to revert to an earlier 7 version to use the RR?
