V2 problems :(

[CDR]

First let me just start off saying that I find EFI Live to be the best tuning tool available on the market. Now with that said and out of the way let me now say I HATE this V2 box! Every thing I have ever tried with it has never worked out. Instead of even going threw my previous problems let me just start with my current problem....

No matter what I try I can not get my VS to display imperial units. If I go to settings and change to imperial units the units that are changed just don't ready anything correctly at all they stay stuck at the same reading.

The second problem not all my units are changed to imperial....

Here is a copy of my options.txt please let me know if i'm doing something wrong!

; PID Custom Units
; ----------------------
;
; PID specifies the controller and PID for which to define a custom unit
; Caption is the caption displayed on screen during BB logging (8 characters maximum).
; From is the default display units name.
; To is the converted display units name.
; Prec is the number of decimal places to display
; Factor the metric value of the PID is multiplied by Factor.
; Offset is then added.
; Invert set to Y to cause the metric value of the PID to be inverted prior to multiplying by Factor

Opps I should of added I have a duramax LB7

CDR,

Welcome to the forum...:cheers:

Some questions:
- are you pressing ENTER on the V2 keypad to switch between units...?
- which firmware/bootblock versions (connect to EFILive Explorer, goto Firmware tab)...?
- which pids do you want to see in Imperial units...?

Your conversions (at the bottom of Options.txt) all have Invert set to Y when it should be N.

Please post your actual Options.txt file (when replying, Go Advanced, then go Manage Attachments, browse to the file and Upload it, post the reply).

Joe
:)

[joecar]

Do you want to try this Options.txt file...

[CDR]

Alright interesting I didn't know you had to say no to the conversion. Let me give the options.txt file you gave me a shot and i'll get back to you thanks!

[CDR]

I tried it today and no suck luck I see only the temperature in imperial. :( My speed and everything else is in metric. I want everything in imperial

[Ninety8C5]

Joecar,

Your Option.txt file was missing several commas in the conversions (MAF,VSS & MAP). I edited and posted the fixed file.

CDR,

Try this Options.txt file.

CDR,

Try this Options.txt file.Ok, thanks, I got that from a saved file after an install.

[joecar]

CDR, try the file posted by Ninety8C5.

To see imperial, you have to press ENTER one time during display of the active log.

CDR, try the file posted by Ninety8C5.

To see imperial, you have to press ENTER one time during display of the active log.

Ok now I have the MAF the engine temp and the intake in imperial. Tranny temp, injector pressure and everything else is still in metric......

If you went back to your original conversions (?) you might be missing some commas (,). I would double check your 'Options.txt' file.

[joecar]

CDR,

In the PCU section, copy/paste the ECT line (make a 2nd copy of it), in the copied line change ECT to TFT and save the file, copy file to your V2, and you will have Imperial TFT.

Or, post your Options.txt file here, we'll mod it. :cheers:
