This menu allows the adjustment of all functions that modify the
operation of auxiliary outputs and compensations of idle speed, etc.
19.1 Internal datalogger
This function is used to log all the engine data read by FuelTech ECU.
The Internal Datalogger can record up to 64 channels like: injection
time (banks A and B), injectors duty cycle (banks A and B), timing,
engine rpm, auxiliary output status, TPS, coolant and air temperature,
oil and fuel pressure, O2 sensor, two-step button, MAP sensor, camshaft
position sensor and battery voltage.
Log download and data analysis are done through the computer and
FTManager Software.

Sampling rate
Through dashboard a touchscreen button will start or stop the
recording. Through external switch an white input must be wired to
an on/off switch to enable the recordin. While the input is grounded
the datalogger will be recording.
Log start and stop
The internal datalogger start and stop trigger can be set up by RPM
signal or by a button on the ECU dashboard.
When selecting “RPM Signal”, the log will be started only when the
programmed RPM is reached. If a button on the dashboard is preferred,
select it on the internal datalogger. After that, go to “Interface settings”
menu and set up the datalogger button on a spot under “Dashboard
setup
Log is automatically stopped when memory is full, ECU is turned off
or the button is pressed.
Via FTManager software, the log can be started or finished through
the “Start log” and “Stop log” in the tool bar. The “Erase memory” will
clear all the logs in the FT500 memory.
Sampling rate
The sample rate defines log quality. Higher the sample rates created
more detailed logs, however, the logging time available will be
shortened. For competition vehicles, especially drag racing, it is
recommended to use a high sample rate to have high detail level on
the log.
The
lower
the sample rate, the more “square” will be the graph and
less detailed. On the other, the
higher the sample rate
, the more
detailed tje log.
Individual channel options
It’s possible to setup each channel individually about line color, if
it will be visible or not, its scale and, when in advanced mode, its
sampling rate.
