SSSICK/User Manual/R019

From WWWIKI

The SSSMCK has an LED that displays operation and errors, internal error checking that can output specific codes to Buoy for diagnostics, dynamic short-term and long-term corrections, and the ability to tune various parameters.

LED Display

In all versions UNTIL R019, the LED normally operates in fader mode, where it's color is directly related to MAF flow rate. It will be green at low flow and fade to blue at higher flow rates. It will illuminate red if an error is detected.

Starting with hardware R019 the LED now only displays the current operating mode of the unit, or illuminates red upon detecting any errors.

The R019 LED looks like this:

LED Color LED Color Meaning
Mck led grn.png Green The unit is operating normally.
Mck led red.png Red There is an active error. Please connect to Buoy to read any available error codes.
Mck led ylw.png Yellow The SSSMCK is waiting on a command from Buoy.
Mck led org.png Orange Power supply issue (over- or under-volting). Please contact us.
Mck led blu.png Blue The unit is starting. This should only be illuminated for about 0.01 seconds during startup. If this stays illuminated, try resetting the unit.

Gauges and add-ons

We offered a few options on earlier versions, from R006-R0012, but have discontinued gauges from the time-being. If you need assistance with a gauge, please contact us directly.

Error Codes

The SSSMCK is capable of displaying a number of error codes that can tell you exactly what, if any, issue it is experiencing. All systems have self-checks coded-in, and if anything is out of specification or an item fails, the SSSMCK will know immediately. An LED that is illuminated red is an easy way to tell if there are any issues.

Tuning

Tuning from within Buoy is currently in alpha-stages, it will be available publicly soon!

Parameters

  • Input Sensor
    • MAF
    • MAP
    • TPS
  • VAM
  • Averaging
    • Enable to allow the SSSMCK to perform software averaging of signal processing. This is enabled by default.
    • We recommend a setting of somewhere between 30 and 40. A larger value means slower reaction, but perhaps smoother operation. A smaller value means sharper response, but an overly small value will provide the ECU with too much noise and may cause rocky operation.
  • Manual Correction
    • Enable this to allow the making of manual corrections to output. Corrections are based on scaling factors of true airflow, and not as a function of analogue signal.
  • Dynamic Correction
    • Enable this to allow the SSSMCK to automatically make corrections to output based on discrepancies.
    • Correction Limits
      • We recommend setting these limits to no less than 0.90 and no more than 1.10. This is a direct scaling factor for true airflow value and not a function of analogue signal.
  • Custom LED Color
    • You can set your own custom LED color for normal operation. The default normal operation LED color is green. Resetting the unit to default values will also reset your custom LED color.

Reset to default values

If you ever have trouble, you can easily reset everything to default values from within Buoy. Instructions will be available with the release of the next version of Buoy.
