Re: Fix for UAEFI sometimes not starting without USB connecteed

correct, still don't know the actual root cause, just breadcrumbs of symptoms with comparison to good board

Re: UAEFI vs 407disco (actual) startup times difference

the startup time difference is solved by soldering sb10 on disco board bottom:

Fix for UAEFI sometimes not starting without USB connecteed

image.png from discussion on discord: 5vp does not light up with just 12v below a certain battery voltage, causing a no-start condition this was traced down to a severe enough drop at the main 5v regulator that would cause the main MCU to power down, aborting enabling 5vp, entering a loop. fix is r...

stm32F407 Discovery Board taking 2+ seconds to boot - SOLVED

Howdy all. I have a DIY rusefi ECU based on 407-Discovery board, and I noticed it was taking 2+ seconds to boot up before it started to try to sync/perform engine management actions. after looking around, the solution is to solder SB10 solder bridge at the bottom of the board in the st-link area. no...

Re: UAEFI vs 407disco (actual) startup times difference

it's not, that's just a way to generate a +5v signal for coils using this kind of driver and using "inverted" ignition setting. that part works fine, and it works fine once it's initialized. this is how old megasquirt1/2 would set up smart coil ignition from the front LED that were driven ...

Re: UAEFI vs 407disco (actual) startup times difference

i'm using a low-side driver to drive the coils, uln2803a IC to pull down 5v low. ignition is in "inverted" mode in ignition setup. so the startup time impacts that portion of the init sequence in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EUrvMpdcLA the LED array on the left is ignition ...

Re: UAEFI vs 407disco (actual) startup times difference

hmm, perhaps once i get better gate drivers for the ignition setup on there that doesn't need to start inverted.

the pinout isn't quite the same between these two setups, so maybe disco firmware on uaefi could work if i set just a basic proof of life sign up.

UAEFI vs 407disco (actual) startup times difference - SOLVED

kind of comparing apple to rotten potatoes here, but would be neat to have a reason for why delay after 12v is applied is different on UAEFI compared to basically same 407 disco setup: UAEFI startup sequence, 4 super bright LEDS are stepper motor coils https://rusefi.com/online/view.php?msq=1623 htt...

Re: Sack of ECUs with locked timing on 2jz-gte

@AndreyB - perhaps the part of the code that tracks the current VVT offset could be used with a magnetic pickup on cyl1 to attempt to capture the drift of a particular ECU at a certain RPM, using an extra patch harness.

Re: Sack of ECUs with locked timing on 2jz-gte

would be pretty trivial to do for me, another patch through harness between the ecu and engine with sniffer device

maybe we can connect timing light's inductive pickup to VR input to capture what the timing light sees ?

Re: Sack of ECUs with locked timing on 2jz-gte

also, taking this a bit further, since that just basically becomes and automotive signal sniffer/analyzer. you could use this to force an OEM ECU to give up its secrets. take in cyl1 for timing (or all of them, why not) - timing map take in inj1 for timing AND pulse width (of all of them, why not) -...

can’t measure it - can’t fix it. i’ll try taking a video with a different camera (d800) and lens to make it a bit clearer, something i can control aperture on. maybe we can rig up an f407 disco, or a secondary uaefi to be a watchdog, where hall3 input is cyl1 ignition. perhaps with knowing the advan...

RPM updates once per engine cycle, unless the option "always use instant RPM" is selected in the experimental settings. I've endurance raced on that setting so it's probably fine to use. MAP updates once per cylinder, since it averages pressure over an angle window (configurable with the ...

Re: 1994 supra with uaEFI

from the logs, i'm seeing RPM "stairstep" 50ms between updates, TPS is much smoother, MAP is 10ms between updates.

WHITE line is RPM
RED is MAP
GREEN is TPS

log resolution seems to be around 5ms, which is how often the green line seems to be changing.

D2 - D7 = cyl1-6 ign

maximum 3 extra spark
