Serial input on ext. port

Post by Ralf » Wed Oct 21, 2015 9:08 pm

Hello,

is there any possibility to input sensor data via the RXD line of the extension port using the ecumaster serial protocol, for example EGT value?

Regards, Ralf

Yes there is a CAN egt box you could use that allows for 8 egt.

EGT was just an example. Could I also use the ecumaster serial protocol for that? I already use the serial protocol output to display values on a touchscreen using some microcontroller hardware with my own firmware. As I don't have any analog inputs left on the ECU connectors, it would be an advantage to get for example oil pressure and oil temperature into the ECU via the serial line.

Hi!

What channels are you interrested in ? I think it would be possible for Oil/Fuel pressure and Oil temp

Hi Jadzwin,

that sounds good, relevant channels would be oil pressure and oil temp, but at least one EGT channel would be even more important for me. Is that possible?

Thanks, Ralf
