SETTING UP THE TORC MODULE
Software
Due to the growing number of PCs lacking a CD drive, the software is not
included with this kit, but rather downloadable to a Windows PC from the
66501 product page on the Painless website.
You will need the “Second
Generation Software” with this module. If a CD is preferred, contact
Painless at 800-423-9696 and we will gladly mail you a copy.

Calibration
Verify that the correct calibration is loaded
on the TORC MODULE. A basic calibration
for a 4L60e is loaded into the module
before shipment. However, if a 4L80/85e is
being used, you'll need to connect the
module to a Windows PC and load the
calibration
that
matches
your
transmission's configuration.
Throttle Position Sensor Calibration
Whether you have electronic fuel injection
or a carburetor, you will need to set the
throttle position. To do this, use the throttle position calibration option on the
built-
in tuning interface. Turn the knob until “Setup Menu” is highlighted. Click
the knob to enter the menu. The first item that will be highlighted is “TPS
Setup”. Click the knob to enter the TPS screen. It will show the current idle
and WOT voltage values as well as the current throttle position sensor
voltage. Press the knob again to enter the TPS setup menu.
To calibrate throttle position, the ignition should be in the ON position but the
engine not running. For carbureted engines, make sure the choke is fully
open and off the fast idle cam before beginning. In the TPS setup menu,
highlight “AutoSet TPS” and click the knob. It will begin detecting the idle
throttle position right away, so leave the pedal untouched.
Next, the display will show “Press Accel Pedal”. Push the accelerator pedal
all the way to the floor and hold it. After a few seconds, “Release Accl Pedal”
will be displayed and you can release the pedal. If n
o errors occur, “AutoSet
Success!” will display and the values will be shown to the left. If an error
occurs during calibration, the display will show the error and abort calibration.
If this happens, you can try running the calibration again. If errors continue,
you may need to check your wiring for problems.
