i have just installed the new version 7.4 and have noticed that the tables in the tune tool that used inHg measurements now use Psi instead but the scan tool only shows the pids in kPa and inHg.
has this been over looked?
will this be a problem?

Change you display units Edit ----> Configure Display Units
Instructions on how to change the display units.
thanks for your reply , but i don`t think you understand me.
7.3`s options for imperial where inHg and metric where kPa.
7.4`s for imperial are Psi and kPa for metric.
metric didn`t change but imperial did.
Your right, we didn't. Sorry. :( I will let Paul know about it. I wonder if it is something they changed to. I just checked and all of my tables are in PSI as well for imperial.Quote:

i cant be the only one using imperial settings.
the pids haven`t changed but the tables in the tune tool have.
I don't know about you guys but I cannot make out anything on this picture. Maybe if you save it as a jpg it will be a larger resolution.

Hmm, the pictures is a little small to see anything useful.
What I was requesting was a list of the tables (or even just some of them) in the tuning tool that used to be displayed in inHg and are now in psi.

Paul
lol my pictures suck, but like i said the {sae.map} pid says kpa or inhg.
the imperial properties are psi now.
metric is the same
It seems a little strange that ALL your PIDs are invalid :eek:
am i crazy or is this only happening to me?:bash:
i`ll explain myself once more.
i have noticed that imperial settings are now PSI they where INHG.
the pids are still INHG.

You're not crazy, I can see what you mean. I'm just trying to figure out if its always been like that or if something has changed in the latest update.
Until I figure out how/what/why/when, the only solution for you right now is to run both the Scan Tool MAP PID and the Tuning Tool MAP labels as metric in kPa. Otherwise nothing will match up.

this is the one i have installed.
I notice that when an alternat calibration is opened that when in the compare % screen that the table cannot be adjusted like before. 7.4 is forcing you to be in its own table and cant be done in the compare % table. This was for the Main VE table
yes! change ALL PSI settings to KPA in both the scan and tune.Quote:

has this been fixed ?
No, not in the latet Update 02. The Update 02 was not a scheduled update. It has been released to combat a VIN licensing error. The next scheduled update will address the other issues that hav ebeen raised with 7.4 so far.Quote:

Not sure I understand your current setup precisely, can you post up a screen shot?Quote:

That was implemented in the 7.4 release. The check box disables further prompts for the life of the Scan Tool session. When you close and reopen the Scan Tool the question will be prompted again.Quote:

So now the user must make the controller choice each time the software is started.
In the next major release (EFILive V8) we are be working on a more "user friendly" approach.

I need to take to some body on the phone ,just cant explain it on here.a screen shot ,i dont beleave it will explain it, it hast to be running to see it. can some one give me a number i can call ? PM me the number , Ive been trying to AutoVE but cant.
I've had other reports of the same issue. There may have been a units conversion fault during the calibration definition file build process. We are investigating and will post up a new software update if required.Quote:

In the Scan Tool, it doesn't matter what units the charts or dashboards are showing, what matters is the units that are showing in the [Data (F9)] tab page.

Paul
can i AutoVE my MAP's in (inHg) ? And copy and past after logging.
You can really use what ever units you like. The key is that the Scan Tool and Tune Tool must be using the same units for the values to be appropriate. Having said that the AutoVE process uses BEN factors. Given that the tables don't change dimensions you could still copy paste/multiply etc, just not using the "with labels" functions.Quote:

The problem is this: the SAE mandate that a scan tool must report MAP (and BARO) as kPa or inHg. Many of our customers have requested that the tuning tool maps be displayed in either kPa or PSI (instead of inHg).
The question now is, do we change the tuning tool maps back to inHg or do we "break" the scan tool and change it to PSI to match the tuning tool?
Have your say here:

Note: EFILive version 8 software will not suffer from this problem. With EFILive V8, you wil lbe able to customize the units to whatever you want and it will not impact the underlying software operation.
Paul,
Is this what I'm seeing here...
The SAE.MAP link in the Main VE table is not corresponding to the scantool cursor, see 1st and 2nd images.
I'm using kPa for MAP.
I see some other tables that use MAP have the same problem.
By comparison, RPM and TP link correctly, see 3rd image.
Joe
Are you sure that you are using kPa for MAP. Remember, it does not matter what the gauges or dashboard shows as the units for MAP. The only important unit is the one displayed on the [Data (F9)] tab page. That is the value that is sent to the tuning tool for PID linking. Looks like its sending inHg.Quote:

In V8 the units do not matter - it always links up correctly no matter what units or display formats are in use. The quicker we get V8 rolled out the better...

there is no inHg for imperial settings
in the tune tables anymore it is all PSI.

Apologies, I dropped the ball on this fix.
It is now at the top of the list.

More reason to abolish and conform in my opinion. hehe
