CAN-EGT+

[julian944]

Ok I found the mistake. I had the wrong polarity. I thought that it is -,+ starting from the left side. My thermocouple is working like that.
But the adc channel worked the other way. Nevertheless it is working now.

I just asked because I have a pressure sensor giving 0-10V for 0-10 bar. I use it for exhaust backpressure. I believe it will not reach 5bar, but good to know I don't damage it immediately.

Thank you very much for your support Jean!

Hello Jean,


this CAN-EGT+ still available or not?
If available: could you PM me a quote?

On this board I plan to use :
5 EGT K probe
3 standard sensor (2 temp + 1 pressure) and add a GPS board (

Is it possible to add:
a 20 Hz GPS board as this one: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11058
a 3-Axis board as this one: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9269

Romain.

Romain,

Yes, it is still available. I''ll send you an email.

You will need to add 2 bias resistors for the temp sensors, a 3.3V power supply for the GPS and accelerometer and a voltage translator for the serial link between the CPU and the GPS board (the accelerometer can be read directly by the ADC inputs). You might also want to add a battery for the GPS module or add the supercap on the Sparkfun board; that will speed up satellite tracking on power up a lot.

And yes these 2 boards are compatible if you add what I mention above.

Jean,

Do you have the parts-list for the EGT inputs.

Thanks, Jacco

Jean,
I'm interested in your 8 channel egt board. I already have your IOx board. Price and availability please.
Thanks Dave

I was wondering if I could get a quote and a availability for the board. I'm debating a 6 EGT setup on my MS3 VR6 turbo. Thanks,

jberlanger,

I would like a board with 8 EGT 4 for cylinder head and 4 for EG. I will be using this on a aircooled engine. The timing circuit can be used for fuel pressure,oil pressure and so on.

[jbelanger]

The same circuits can be used for EGT and CHT. It is also possible to adjust the range for the CHT to get a bit more precision.

I don't understand what you mean by the timing circuit. For fuel pressure, oil pressure and other analog signals, you need to use the ADC inputs. There are 16 of them available but you would need to build the conditioning circuits and add a connector and/or wiring to connect those circuits to the sensors.

You can PM me and give me your location if you want me to give you a quote for the board and shipping.

Just would like to know if this board could also do AFR readings too.

Yes it can but exactly how depends on which WBO2 controller you want to use. If you have an LC1/LC2 (or many of them), you can connect them to the 2.5 mm stereo jack. If you have SLC OEM modules, you can connect them to the I2C bus. And if you have any other type, you can connect them to ADC (analog) inputs.

Ok, still haven't gotten a quote on how much the unit will cost.

Hi to all,

I'm now ongoing to the final assembly of GPS & Accelero board.
The accelero board is supply by a 3,3V converter. Output is at 3,3V max.
How I can setup the software for a max level of 3,3V and not, as expected, 5V?
Where is the appropriate ADC entry?

In order to avoid stupid error: the GPS must be connect to CPU TX/RX ?
Of course the logic converter is fitted between GPS board and CAN-EGT+ board.

Thanks for your feedback.

[jbelanger]

The fact that the accelerometer generates a 0-3.3V signal is not a problem; the ADC input will just use 66% of the potential range. You simply compensate for it when you do the calibration.

And the GPS needs to connect to the correct TX/RX on the CPU (there are 2 of them). You need to use PTF0/TXD2 and PTF1/RXD2 on the JP3 header. Don't forget that you need to connect the CPU TX to the GPS RX and CPU RX to GPS TX.

Jean

Thanks Jean for your answer.

Could you clarify where are the correct pads in JP3 fpr GPS connection.
Is it possible to have the same thing for the ADC pads for 3 axis accelero

[jbelanger]

The same headers are used for the IOx and the CAN EGT so you can have a look at the IOx page. The JP3 header below shows you where PTF0/TXD2 and PTF1/RXD2 are located (5th pad from the right).


The accelerometer can use any of the free ADC inputs but the "standard" ones are PTC5/ADP21, PTB6/ADP14 and PTA7/ADP7 on JP1 which correspond to channels 17,18,19.



Note that the CAN EGT has an RS232 chip connected to the serial port you want to use with the GPS. That is normally used for connecting to an LC1 on the CAN-EGT through the 2.5mm stereo jack. You obviously can't use the serial port for both functions at the same time. But I also have not tried to see if the RS232 chip has an impact on the communication between the CPU and the GPS. It may be necessary to remove the chip if you can't get it to work.

Hi.
I would like to order one with 2 egt inputs.
