OpenFlash Tablet

[clintavo]

I have no problem running a canned tune, as they are usually conservative.. especially with Vishnu doing the initial tunes.

My SR20VE NX2000 runs perfectly on a downloaded tune to a Calum (you on here?) realtime ECU.

I suggest a sub forum to share tunes.

im more concerned about the FI guys canned is great for a NA setup to get you started or a factory turbo car but not acceptable for a 12.5:1 motor that was never FI to begin with

We can log and display anything you would like. Currently our beta logging code is logging:

Rpm
Throttle %
Load (g/rev)
Knock
Knock learning
Ignition advance multiplier
LTFT
STFT
AFR
IAT

These were the channels that Vishnu requested before they took on the job of development maps for us. If you would like any other parameters added, just let us know. We can even put your logo in the background pic if you want anything customized

I have the same tablets already so im already familiar with them including the customized intro screens. We use them on our Euro tunes since they were released.

I don't believe they are the same tablets. The ones you use (Powergate 3 I presume) use map encryption and don't offer data displays or datalogging. Perhaps that is why you are concerned about logging channels?

i thought you said the files werent encrypted on your units...? my handhelds have all my files encrypted to my Master unit. As far as dalogging goes i know thats a firmware issue and can be easily addressed.

Correct. Ours do not encrypt maps like Powergate 3 which is, on its own merits, is a very fine device.

Well, he borrowed my lawnmower a year ago, saw how great it was, and bought one for himself. I went to the library. I discovered authors I love. I bought many of their books. I went onto YouTube and watched a Macklemore video for free. I liked what I heard. I went and bought the album.

Tuning involves data logging and time. It's not well-suited to people sharing cables and hardware. People want logging. They want to know what's happening much of the time. The will buy hardware. However, they are less likely to buy limited hardware.

How long are you going to beat this horse for?

It's done, their decision is made, your mind is on one track and already made as well.

Powergate units relay on Decoders to encrypt/de-encrypt the ROM file so that it cannot be viewed/editing by end users. It is intended to be a transport device for tuners to use when the customer is not local to them. This is why it does not datalog or display PID data. The OpenFlash tablet, on the other hand, is configured to be an Open Source tuning system with enhanced diagnostic/logging capabilities. Take a look at our BMW application and you will see that it does everything from adaptation resets, in-dash gauge hijacking, logging, realtime displays and (soon) streaming data graphs. The OpenFlash Tablet and Powergate are two very different products that serve very different purposes and are now developed independently of each other. Both have their place in the market however. It's just important to know what best suits your individual needs. This goes for customers and vendors alike.

I won't complain about the price or terms, they're great. My only complaint is semantics. You shouldn't call it 'OpenFlash' unless it is truly open. It's a bit misleading. If there isn't a link to a github repo with the source (of the entire stack, under gpl or similar), it's not 'open'. The term gets misused and thrown around a lot.

That said, ill take unlocked, end-user editable maps any way I can get them.

I am in for this. My local tuner has hondata begging him for his tune on the only full blown turbo new Si civics in the country. Not that there arent great tuners in the his community, but I will take down the street and full access any day over internet tunes...
