Ladies and gentlemen, start your projects!!! Software is roughed in. Shifts through all the gears, locks up the torque converter clutch and adjusts line pressure. Don't have the xdf done yet but I should have the hardware together within the next two weeks(daughters bday this week) and begin road testing this thing. Anyone interested in ordering a kit lemme know. I currently only have software to run with a vss signal and tps for the 4L60E but will have the 80E code finished by the time it hits the road.

ok Steveo, I need some assistance with writing the xdf and likely the adx files for this project. gimme a shout when u have time.

adx too? you're going to throw a serial comms and diagnostic kind of system behind this thing? that'd be cool
i can help you with the xdf, send me some code man and i'll figure out the best approach
Steveo, pm me ur email. it,ll be a few days before I can send u a bin though.still need to clean up the code a bit and comment it out properly. OCD is a wonderous thing lol

Well, without adding more hardware and software its entirely too much work to use TP5 to tune This thing. So my question now is, do I just go open source with this or license the software? I'm sure I know what most of your answers will be lol.

Well I have successfully migrated the code to an arduino pro mini board. All is well. I will begin integrating the hardware interface to the external components this week. ;)

Ok Steveo, can you help with an adx? I have TP5 officially connected...I think. TP shows DA:Connected, @85hz 0 errors. My problem is understanding what TP wants from the arduino to place the incoming values in the appropriate gauge. Any insight?

what's actually coming out of the serial interface? is it just spitting out data, or do you have some kind of request and response happening?
my email is resfilter atresfilterdotnet if you want to send me some code or whatever, if you define your datastream for me i'd happily write you an adx? also not sure why you've given up using tunerpro to tune it, we should really try to get that working.
Steveo,
As it is now the board just spits out data upon initialization. I do have each variable identified in the stream as viewed thru windows hyperterm and the arduino ide see monitor, I.e. vss = 8600, tps% = 15.0, etc. I don't have a bin file saved to my phone e but i do have the arduino .ino file. It you'll have to download the ide to view it. I can email a bin file tonight when I get home. The .ino file can be viewed in a hex editor.

that should be very easy, you should prefix each iteration of the stream with a header that'll likely never match actual data, just a string of bytes, just throw 0x01 0x02 0xF4 0xEE or something before it, then put a footer on it, and preferrably make the last byte a checksum to ensure it's valid (i can help you calculate that if you like). at that point it'll be really easy to write a 2-liner macro thing to get the data, and just configure the conversion for each variable.
Ya you're gonna have to walk me through all that lol. This is the first coding I've done in 25 years. Self taught on the arduino language and what little hex and binary I know.
If it don't fit force it, if it don't force fit f&%@ it!
for sure man i can do that, i'll contribute a few hunks of code once i get that source from you, and work with you getting the adx going. i still want to see it editable for constants in tunerpro too, which i can definitely do for ya
That would be awesome Steveo! Have I mentioned I appreciate your help with the project. I'll make sure and cut you in if it turns s a profit. ;)
I am in The process of adding tach input for forced shift in addition to a shift light output. Considering an air shift output as well. If anyone has any thing additional questions would like to see lemme know.
