    Wow, I guess I remember seeing it on the V2 from my serial days when I was running a lc1 . I would have chased that forever. Thanks man!!! I will select those pids and do a log and see what happens. Appreciate you as always! !!

    I uninstalled and reinstalled the sept. beta release of 7.5 and 8 . I changed the user config calc_pids to

    Default Look at these differences please Joecar

    you will then have to look in the AEM user manual to see how they map AFR to 0-5V:

    ( see attached, is this the correct user manual...? )



    There is not a CALC.AFR and CALC.BEN pids for this...

    so we would create one...

    in calc_pids.txt:

    define these Units:


    Code:
    LAM   None        "LAM"     "Lambda"
    EQR   None        "EQR"     "Equivalence Ratio (i.e. 1/Lambda)"
    BEN   None        "BEN"     "BEN factor"
    


    and the slot definition would go like this:

    Code:
    *CLC-00-030
    AFR         8.0       18.0        .2   "{EXT.AD1}*2.375+7.3125"
    LAM         0.5        1.5        .3   "{CALC.AEM1.AFR}/14.7"
    EQR         0.5        1.5        .3   "1/{CALC.AEM1.LAM}"
    BEN         0.5        1.5        .3   "{CALC.AEM.LAM1}*{GM.EQIVRATIO}"
    question: what does AEM assume gasoline stoich AFR to be (14.7)...?

    and the PRN would go like this:

    Code:
    CALC.AEM1   F030  CLC-00-030  "AFR,LAM,EQR,BEN"      Wideband     "AEM 30-4900 AFR,LAM,EQR,BEN"
    
    I have not tested it, but if there's any problems I'll help you.


    You would log these pids:
    - GM.EQIVRATIO
    - EXT.AD1
    - CALC.AEM1

    the BEN pid would be CALC.AEM1.BEN

    to view AFR, Lambda or EQR, you would chart CALC.AEM1.AFR, CALC.AEM1.LAM, CALC.AEM1.EQR.
    But this is listed later in the thread...

    *CLC-00-030
    AFR 8.0 18.0 .2 "{EXT.AD1}*2+10"
    LAM 0.5 1.5 .3 "{CALC.AEM1.AFR}/14.638"
    EQR 0.5 1.5 .3 "1/{CALC.AEM1.LAM}"
    BEN 0.5 1.5 .3 "{CALC.AEM1.LAM}*{GM.EQIVRATIO}"

    I mention the above because I used the latter one and my gauge and scan tool read almost a point off now.

    Which AEM do you have...?

    Does your user manual show and equation relating V and AFR...?

    Or a table of voltages and AFR...?

    AFR 19.98 --> 4.99V --> lambda 1.365

    Find AFR as a function of V:
    (AFR-10)/(V-0) = (19.98-10)/(4.99-0) = 2
    AFR = V*2+10

    This is the same as CALC.AFR_PLX1, so you can use that pid... but the corresponding BEN pid CALC.BEN_PLX1 uses GM.AFR instead of GM.EQIVRATIO...

    so if you wanted to use GM.EQIVRATIO (which I would recommend), follow along (you already know algebra):

    0V --> lambda 0.683
    4.99V --> lambda 1.365

    Find lambda as function of V:
    (lambda-0.683)/(V-0) = (1.365-0.683)/(4.99-0) = 0.1367
    lambda = V*0.1367+0.683

    We now want to find the assumed stoich AFR...

    Solve V for lambda = 1:
    1 = V*0.1367+0.683
    V = (1-0.683)/0.1367 = 2.319V

    Find AFR for lambda = 1 (i.e. for V = 2.319V):
    AFR = 2.319*2+10 = 14.638

    so AEM device assumes stoich to be 14.638.


    So now modify CLC-00-030 from the above calc_pids.txt to read as follows:
    Code:
    *CLC-00-030
    AFR                8.0          18.0       .2  "{EXT.AD1}*2+10"
    LAM                0.5           1.5       .3  "{CALC.AEM1.AFR}/14.638"
    EQR                0.5           1.5       .3  "1/{CALC.AEM1.LAM}"
    BEN                0.5           1.5       .3  "{CALC.AEM1.LAM}*{GM.EQIVRATIO}"
    Thank you Joe. Things have been busy lately, so haven't had time to test yet. I got an understanding of how the calculation's work after following https://forum.efilive.com/showthread...g-autove-wrong

    Hopefully I will be able to do some testing next weekend.
