Image in windows size & Rad Fan trigger

Post by zer099 »

It would be nice if all the windows could be size adjusted. Here's a quick screen shot so you understand a little better:

It would be nice if I could get it where the numbers were not all "14..." or "1..." like it is in both Mixture windows.

Also, is there anyway we can adjust when the radiator fan relay is triggered?

In regards to the radiator fan - not aware of an address for that yet. Do you know exactly what temp it kicks in from the consult guages?

Also in regards to the font sizes, change your windows font size to normal to fix this. I had that problem on my Dell when I first bought it and tried out Nistune on it.

Display Properties - Appearance - Font size - Normal

After that the cells will fit properly in the window (without all that spare grey left over). I also have an enhancement item to make the grids resizable. Thats going to take a little work. I would need to split the tickboxes/display for the graph away from the grid as a separate window, then make the grid and the fonts inside scale depending on window size

Which set of "Display Properties" are you reffering too? I went the route of:
(right click on screen) Properties (which pulls up your display properties) -> Appearance -> Font size (which was already set to Normal) -> Advanced -> Font size (changed from 8 to 6)

Which is very tiny. But I can still read it and the numbers now all fit, but that gray area is still there and I was hoping to just increase that chart to fit in the window like you discribed.

As for the fan relay, I want to say it is triggered at 100 degree C, but I need to double check that for you.

>> not aware of an address for that yet.

for the z32 the addresses are:

0x7443 (stock value : 8C) is fan activation temperature offset with aircon off
0x7442 (stock value : 8C) is fan activation temperature offset with aircon on

3 byte table at 0x77ED (stock values : 00 00 00), defines the fan activation in relation to vhclspeed with aircon off
3 byte table at 0x77F0 (stock values : D4 D4 00), defines the fan activation in relation to vhclspeed with aircon on

Operation:
from the 3 byte tables, the 1st byte is selected when vhclspeed is between 0 and 20kmh, the 2nd byte when speed is between 20 and 40km, the 3rd byte when speed exceeds 40kmh

the selected byte of these tables is then split into 4 sets of 2 bits:
eg. stock value of 0xD4 (= 11 01 01 00)

the 1st set (00) is selected when temperature is below value of 7443 or 7442 minus 50 (< 90C)
the 2nd set (01) is selected when temperature equals/exceeds value of 7443 or 7442 minus 50 (>= 90C)
the 3rd set (01) is selected when temperature equals/exceeds value of 7443 or 7442 minus 45 (>= 95C)
the 4th set (11) is selected when temperature equals/exceeds value of 7443 or 7442 minus 40 (>= 100C)

meaning of the 2 bit sets:
11: fan on full blow , 01: fan on half blow (TT only), 00: fan off

the routine has 2 major overrides: if temperature equals/exceeds 105C (value of 7443 or 7442 minus 35) or if the ecu is in failsafe mode for whatever reason (eg. temp sensor disconnected) , then the fan is always turned on at full blow no matter what the vhclspeed is.


For the RNN14 it works in a similar way.
I have to look into my documentation for the addresses

Hi Eric

Someone emailed that to me last month for the Z32 so I've added it in
FAN_TEMP_ON,&H7443,1,1,1,1,Fan activate override temperature limit (when AC off)
FAN_TEMP_ON_AC,&H7442,1,1,1,1,Fan activate override temperature limit (when AC on)
FAN_SPEED_ON,&H7F75,1,1,1,1,Fan activate on speed limit (when AC off)
FAN_SPEED_ON_AC,&H7F76,1,1,1,1,Fan activate on speed limit (when AC on)
FAN_TEMP_THRESHOLD_LO,&H7443,1,1,1,1,Fan activate temperature threadhold hysteresis1
FAN_TEMP_THRESHOLD_HI,&H7442,1,1,1,1,Fan activate temperature threadhold hysteresis2
FAN_TEMP_ON_DELAY,&H7444,1,1,1,1,Fan Activate temperature delay/hysteresis
FAN_TEMP_OFF_DELAY,&H7445,1,1,1,1,Fan Deactivate temperature delay/hysteresis

FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_OFF_0KMH,&H77ED,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC ON (0-19)
FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_OFF_20KMH,&H77EE,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC ON (20-39)
FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_OFF_40KMH,&H77EF,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC ON (40+)
FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_ON_0KMH,&H77F0,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC OFF (0-19)
FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_ON_20KMH,&H77F1,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC OFF (20-39)
FAN_TEMP_SPEED_CTRL_AC_ON_40KMH,&H77F2,3,1,3,1,Fan temp speed control AC OFF (40+)
But I've not had time yet to go through the disassembly or look at other address files for other vehicles yet. Once they are known, just need to update the above for RNN14 etc

Best to split these kind of threads into two... i remembered something forgotten previously

Okay your display settings.... I went through my Dell display stuff and found it! It was like over two years ago since I changed it

Control Panel - Display Properties - Settings - Advanced - DPI setting

It would be currently 120 DPI change to Normal Size 96 DPI and it will then probably ask for your CDROM (maybe) and then reboot to use the new settings. Now everything will display normally

95 degree C on the RNN14
