Can I use more that 6 aux lookup tables for MTS?

I just added an Innovate SSI4 to my MTS chain. The chain is now LC1, LC1, SSI4, TC4. Because the TC4 and the SSI4 each have four inputs I just realized that I have a total of 8 inputs after the LC1s. So can I / how do I read the last two TC4 inputs now?

Thanks in advance

So I tried it and it is worse than I thought

I can see both widebands and the SSI4 (boost plus 3 blank sensors) but i can no longer see any of the TC4 thermocouples.

Anybody running a TC4 and an SSI4 together? Help!

Just reversed the order of the TC4 and the SSI4. Now I can see both widebands and The TC4 but not the SSI4. So it appears that you can see both widebands and whatever is immediately next in the MTS chain. :-(

that may vary due to the innovate serial chain data priorities.
be interested to see if you get consistent output to the 6 aux readouts.

Matt would have a deeper understanding of how it integrates with Nis.

I think the issue you had with too many data outs is similar to what I experienced with my LM-2OBDII meter.

So I think you are onto something. I think that there is a bandwidth limitation of some kind.

After reading your post I disconnected one of the LC1s. Then I was able to see the first channel on the SSI4. When I reversed the SSI4 and the TC4 I was also able to view the first channel of the TC4. So it appears like six channels in total.

So basically I am not too happy. To get the SSI4 I have to give up one of the widebands and one thermocouple (I wasn't using the two CHT inputs ...yet). Or I can keep the two thermocouples and the first channel of the SSI4 in exchange for giving up one wideband. Either way I lose a wideband and have idle channels and hardware :-(

I had a hunch that might happen. you'll need to resort to comparing Logworks to Nistune.
The trick is to use the same signal source into both apps. eg. RPM or Throttle position. Then it is easier to compare logs.

Uggghhhh! Really?

I have sent the error logs to Matt. Hopefully he can come up with something ....

Will have to look through this. The way (I remember) the algorithm works is

Scan through Innovate devices provided by their MTS DLL

First AFR device => AFR LHS
Second AFR device => AFR RHS
Other devices => Aux 1... 6 (until all allocated)

The rest will be ignored since thats the maximum supported

Can you reorder your outputs within a device on the chain, so that the ones you need are first?

Because other than that, the only method then is to offer a select and reassign option just for innovate so you can determine which inputs are assigned where

Hey Matt

Just got your note. I will check it out today!
