MaxxECU online help

MaxxECU has digital inputs (DIN x) that can be used to trigger certain Digital input functions.

Note: User CAN inputs, AIN x can also be used to trigger digital input functions.

 

 

Digital Input (DIN x)

Example wiring to ground a DIN x (with pullup activated) or AIN (temperature) (since these AIN (temp) have built-in pullup they can be triggered when grounded.

 

Example MTune setting for a wired digital input 1 switch which will trigger the digital input function Stop engine/prevent start.

 

 

Using AIN (temperature) as digital input

Example wiring to ground a DIN x (with pullup activated) or AIN (temperature) (since these AIN (temp) have built-in pullup they can be triggered when grounded.

 

In the above example a simple switch is connected between GND and AIN 1 to close the circuit and activates the secondary boost target in boost control.

 

 

Using AIN (0-5V) as digital input

Example wiring to trigger a digital input function on a AIN (0-5V) input.

 

You can also use an AIN (0-5V) to trigger a digital input by wiring a +5V or +12V source through a switch to a AIN (0-5V) input.

 

In the above example where we set AIN 4 active level to active high, the boost target changes to boost target 2.

 

 

Function

Specifies the digital input function to trigger when the input gets active.

 

Function 2

Specifies the digital input function to trigger as function 2 when using the below latch function.

 

latch

Adds a latching feature of the digital input, with possibility to trigger a secondary digital function.

•None (active while the input is active)

•Push: on, Push: off

•Push: on, long Push: off

•Push: on, long Push: function 2 on, push: both off

Note: Long-push = 0.5seconds.

 

Description

User-defined name for this input to easily identify what's connected.

 

Active level

Specifies whether function is active when voltage goes from high to low (falling edge) or low to high (rising edge).

 

Pullup

Specifies whether to use internal pullup resistor (2500 ohm to +5V) on selected input to trigger input when connected to ground. if you do not enable the Pullup on this input, you must either input +5V or +12V to trigger it.

Note: Not available on all ECUs and only available when set to digital input.

 

Input type

Specifies the type (hall or VR) of sensor wired to the input.

•Digital input - +3,3 to +3,5V square wave signal is required to trigger input when set to digital input (up to 10kHz).

•VR input - Requires a - 0,16V to +0,16V (0,32V peak-peak) signal to trigger input when set to VR (up to 10kHz).

Note: Not available on all ECUs.

How to make digital input 3 (DIN 3) visible?

MaxxECU V1/RACE and PRO (REV4+) has the ability to use GPO 7 as digital input 3 (DIN 3).

Note: The GPO7/DIN3 has a fixed +5V pullup.

 

GPO 7 used as digital input 3 (DIN 3) in the above example in Output --> Output config.

 

 

In Inputs --> Digital inputs, DIN 3 is now available for usage in MaxxECU.
