    Default PID Custom Units (PCU) issue with April 7th Update

    I have noticed that when I toggle between units on the FlashScan unit that the wideband AFR does not toggle as it should. Here is my options.ini file (well, an excerpt of it).

    Code:
    *FD_Gen
    ;
    ;Node PIDs (pid1|pid2|...|pidn)  Alarm (min:max:style:time*10ms:hold*sec)
    ;---- -------------------------- -----------------------------------------
    PCM,  RPM,                       0:6600:3:1:0
    PCM,  TP
    PCM,  AFR
    -,    WO2AFR1
    PCM,  KR,                        0:4:31:5:0
    PCM,  SPARKADV
    PCM,  ECT,                       -40:110:1:1:0
    PCM,  EOPS
    PCM,  IAT
    PCM,  MAP
    PCM,  VSS
    PCM,  DYNCYLAIR_M
    PCM,  IAC
    PCM,  IBPW1
    PCM,  W02ST1
    
    
    *PCU
    ;
    ;   PID         Caption     Prec Units Op    Factor        Offset
    ;   --------    --------    ---- ----- --    ------------- -------------
    PCM,RPM,        RPM,
    PCM,TP,         TPS
    PCM,AFR,        AFR_CMD,    2,    AFR,*,   1.0,           0.0
    -,WO2AFR1,      AFR_ACT,    2,    AFR,*,   1.0,           0.0
    PCM,KR,         KR
    PCM,SPARKADV,   TIMING
    PCM,ECT,        ECT,        0,   °F,    *,   1.8,          32.0
    PCM,IAT,        IAT,        0,   °F,    *,   1.8,          32.0
    PCM,MAP,        MAP
    PCM,VSS,        VSS,        0,   mph,   /,   1.609344,
    PCM,EOPS,       EOP,        0,   psi,   *,   32,          -16.0
    PCM,DYNCYLAIR_M,DYNCYLAIR_M,2,   g/cyl, *,   1.0,           0.0

    As you can see I've renamed many of the parameters. When I toggle to custom units, every parameter besides -,W02AFR1 updates to new units. -,W02AFR1 just stays as it is. It does not change the name to AFR_ACT as it should.

    Default

    It was a bug, it has been fixed now.
    The same thing will happen on all PCU definitions with "-" for the Node.
    Thanks for finding it.

    Temporarily, you could actually put ECM instead of "-" for the Node.

    Putting "-" for the node actually causes FlashScan to use the first node discovered on the vehicle bus as the "owner" of the PID.

    It just means instead of FlashScan using the first node found (which should be the ECM), you specifically tell FlashScan to use the ECM as the parent node.
