Vortec Calc VET Auto Tune, Final Answer!

[joecar]

That's what I have been doing, I have several now, but in the end only one can be used by the software and it must be calc_pids.txt correct?

Here is one you did AFR Calc viewing in that I added three from the Calc VE Tuning tutorial. See if I got it correct?

Yes, correct, calc_pids.txt.

After *CLC-00-002 there is *CLC-00-00... looks like this be *CLC-00-003.

How about this, I simplified by re-using the newer VE calculation (CLC-00-003 becomes CLC-303):

Actually it was a total mess, I was on my tuning laptop using Notepad. Never have 2 or more instances open in Notepad! I blew it. That file was all messed up as you noticed. It's still missing CLC-00-003... and look in *PRN - Parameter Reference Numbers at number 3? It's 303, shouldn't that be down lower in order?...

I use EditPad on my shop laptop. What do you use or recommend?

Notepad++ is my go-to free editor for basic things like this and minor programming. Might do what you want plus has a tabbed interface.

That works for free as well as my 2005 paid for version of EditPad which needed a paid for update!

Since *CLC-00-003 was missing in that, you replaced it with *CLC-00-303 which is what I need here I just moved it.

Is it acceptable to Comment out a entry? Look at:
*CLC-00-273
# *CLC-00-273

calc_pids_TEST.txt

[joecar]

Yes you can comment out like that;

it is not complete tho, you will have to provide CLC and PRN entries for CALC.B4901.

Think I got procedure right. Not sure I have all correct changes done, going to test.

Understand that I have experiance with sytax from HTML. CGI etc... and learning how/what/why these entries work.

[EagleMark]

That calc_pids file may look good but it does not work, one entry twice. Going back to start again.

[EagleMark]

You have to rename the original file.

Also note that when editing calc_pids.txt you must ensure there are at least two blank lines at the end of file.

I think in your case the correct pid to use is GM.AFR_B, it is intended for the LS2... post some logs of this.

Here's a log and pid list with GM.AFR and GM.AFR_B. NOTE: While in vehicle data shows as N/A for GM.AFR. In log it shows as 0.00. GM.AFR_B works in vehicle and log.

Guess what happens if you get all the right PIDS and calc_pid file correct?



It works!

At this point I'm not sure which tutorial I followed, but the corrections for fuel and MAF are being done Closed Loop with MAF sensor hooked up in one log!
