Check your units. You are viewing spark in oz/cyl but logging G/cyl. Going from your previous screenshot of the pid list.

Jim,

Follow these links:

configuring units in scantool:
- on PIDs (F8) tab, on each pid do rightclick->Imperial,
- on Data (F9) tab, verify that that all those pids show Imperial units.


configuring units in tunetool:
Configuring-the-calibration-display-units
Part-throttle-shift-table-conversion
Can-you-go-from-C-to-F-degrees


Also see this (regarding the units of MAP):
Scan-tool-match-tune-tool
Runway-highlighting-not-tracking

Set MAP to Metric (kPa).

great reading as usual Joe , seem my calc link gm.dyncylair_dma will not show up any way I change things in the rr box , could It be in mt text file wrong ? or am I just plain messing it up

In tunetool do:
- Edit->Configure Display Properties,
- click on the Col Units column heading (to sort by that column),
- scroll down until you see a bunch of "Oz/Cylinder" units (should be all grouped together due to the sorting),
- hightlight the group,
- do rightclick->Column Label Units->Metric,
- click Ok.
- reopen your timing table.

ok did what you said still no link , pulling your hair out yet ? , if I had some I would be ,,,,RR needs instruction or a superb write up

Well the tables are being tracked fine now. What pid are you trying to use to modify the timing table? If it is a custom calc pid you have wrote it needs to be added to the cal link text file for the tables you are modifying.
Personally I just have the RR in emulation mode, track the table by logging the axis pids & modify the tables using the function keys. (F7 & F8 IIRC)

No mick im using the calc txt link with no mods as you and see the link I need is in my pid list , I wonder if its the custom o/s ???? they are being tracked but no link so no changes

[5.7ute]

Tune tool is tracking fine. (You can see the blue square that moves around the table cells) The blank space is due to no parameter being linked to modify the table.
For instance when doing RTACS for the VE table. RPM & MAP are logged to designate which cell the pcm is using. BEN is used as the modifier for the cell which is highlighted & performs the changes until you hit the percentage of accuracy you have designated.
There is no pid written to modify the timing table. On a dyno you could make a calc pid that reads torque & modifies timing until MBT is achieved. (if the dyno can be linked into Efilive like the Mainline Dyno's over here )
Or you could write a pid that increases timing until knock is present & back off a few degrees. Not recommended as highly inaccurate.
Whatever you decide to do, to use real time tuning on any table you need to modify the cal link text to have your custom calc pid linked to it.

Jim, you have to manually edit the timing table (while RR is running). You could make a modfier pid that subtracts the pid GM.KR, but this is not recommended.
