Sorry, I haven't got a clue where to even start to do that.

I had to remove and re-install Java for an unrelated problem and now when I try and open Eclipse it tells me it can't find JAVA JRE. A check on Java tells me I have the most up to date version. Any idea how to fix this?

You answered my next question before I asked it. So, that's how you get the screen shot, how did you get to that screen in the first place?

You can rest assured that as soon as my board arrives I'll start assembling and stand by for further orders.

Ahh. This just further proves how ignorant I am in the ways of the Tortoise. First of all, how did you get to that screen shot? Anyway, I just right clicked on my "rusEFI" folder and selected Tortoise "check out". Voila! Things started downloading, lots of them. So I think I have...

If I use the https site Tortoise asks me for a user name and password. If I use the http site Tortoise gives me this error

POST of '/p/rusefi/code/!svn/me': 403 Forbidden (http://svn.code.sf.net)

What is the step by step procedure you use to download it with Tortoise?

I deleted my previous version of the consol and all firm ware. I've downloaded the latest version of the consol to my "Downloads" folder, where it shall reside. I've created a shortcut to it on the desktop. I've downloaded the latest firmware.zip and unzipped it to a folder (rusEFI) that I...

In the "Build Server" we have "rusefi consol .jar" and "rusefi firmware .zip". I'm assuming that both of these are updated periodically, so if that's true, where would you suggest that I create folders for them?

Andrey, OK, I'm back, but It looks like I have forgotten a lot of what I've learned already. I would like to load the latest Hex file for my engine into Discovery and view it on the consol but I'm not clear on how to do this. We could do it a couple of ways. You could just point me to where I can do...

Sorry, you lost me. What's an SVN client? Remember, I'm just blindly following instructions here. The Zip file I downloaded was unzipped under the folder "code". In that folder there were sub folders, "firmware", "Firmware Bineries", Hardware", "Java Consol&qu...

I think I have the correct version of Eclipse installed. When I go to Help>About Eclipse, it returns: Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers Version: Kepler Service Release/ Build ID: 20130919-0819 I can't seem to load the rusEFI project that I downloaded from http://rusefi.com/build_server/rusefi_firmwar...

Andrey,
I have Discovery running and connected to your Java console
I have my jumper set between PD1 and PC6.
The output on the screen of the utility is the same as you show except I am showing 1203 RPM.

This is fun!

I have discovery connected with the min-USB and the STM32 ST-Link utility running. I am able to load your hex file but can't connect to Discovery. Is there a jumper of some sort that should be open or closed? EDIT. I thought I had the driver installed but apparently not. I did a driver search and Wi...

Andrey, Oh Boy! I'm, completely out of my element here and way over my depth, but I've made a start. I haven't got a clue what all this stuff is or what it does, so I'm just blindly following instructions. I think I have Sourcery CodeBench Lite for ARM EABI and Cygwin installed correctly. When I che...

Andrey,
HaHa! I like your attitude. Unfortunately I've become quite busy with work related stuff (have to finance my bad habits) but I should be able to get back into the fun stuff on the week end.

Thanks for your efforts to date, much appreciated.

Puff, I don't know that a V8 is really any more complex than an Inline 6 or a four cylinder, but if I can be of any assistance I'd be glad to at least offer an opinion. My engines are all low tech, low compression utility machines, but it is still very satisfying to be in total control. Andrey. I'm ...

If you are referring to the "for off road vehicles only" disclaimer, it's simply not an issue where I live. We don't have mandatory vehicle inspections for emissions. In reality I think that for once at least, reason has prevailed. The percentage of people who run programmable EFI are very...

I suppose because the ignition pick up is in the distributor the ECU does know camshaft position, but with a very coarse resolution and that's all it knows. There is no crank position information. Why batch? Don't know really, but the history of EFI seems to be that it was used first, probably becau...

Puff, The fleet is still very much intact. The E-150 came under MS control with my own transmission controller in 2004. It is my rolling test bench and daily driver. I have well over 100,000 km on it since the conversion with no reliability issues. Tuning never really ends though, I'm always trying ...

Fuel is all basic batch fired MS stuff. Similar to the original Bosch systems of the '80s. The Ford OEM strategy is to fire the injectors in banks of 3 alternately once every crankshaft revolution. There is no attempt to synchronize anything. The options I have with a 6 cylinder 4 stroke engine are:...

Nope. No wasted spark. One coil and a distributor. The PIP signal comes from a hall effect sensor in the distributor. So, I suppose it could be classified as a Camshaft Position Sensor. The PCM doesn't know or care what cylinder is about to fire. The distributor takes care of that. All the PCM has t...

Andrey,
No problem on the split, I was going to ask if I should be posting that stuff to another sub forum anyway.

Puff,
Sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean by "what happened".

The PIP input circuit I am using is just a slight adaptation from the original MS1 tach input signal. The PIP input goes through a 1080R resistor to pin 1 of a 4N25 opto isolator. Pin 2 of the isolator goes to ground. Across pins 1 and 2 is a 0.001 cap. That's it. Works just fine. Analog board has b...

Jared,
Nope, PIP is zero to nominal 12. System voltage, could be up to 15 or so depending on how well the alternator is regulated. Also, it could be down to 8 or less under crank conditions with a low battery.

Andrey,
Got the BOM, Thanks.

The Digikey (USA) link for the BOM won't accept my Canadian account log in. Is there a plain old BOM so I can order it manually?

OK. It gets really simple because the signal comes from the distributor, not the crank shaft. The signal tells the ECU and the TFI module when a cylinder is at 10 degrees BTDC on compression. The PIP signal has a rising edge at base timing, usually set at 10 degrees BTDC. In the case of this six cyl...

I've attached some documentation on the Ford ignition systems. What I am using is the TFI "push start" flavor which does it's own dwell control, as opposed to the Computer Controlled Dwell model. It's pretty simple really. The Profile Ignition Pickup Hall Sensor signal is 12 volt square wa...

A post by rusefi on the LibreEMS forum lead me here. The DIY EFI world is becoming more interesting by the day! I am very new to "C" programming, but am relatively comfortable with Motorola assembler using the 908 chip. I've done quite a bit of customising to the MS1 Extra code to make it ...
