liquid Software Revision History
The current software revision level is: 3.50
If you have an older version of software on your liquid, it can be updated by sending the unit to MCPi. Please contact us at sales@mcpii.com to arrange for the software upgrade service. We will need the serial number for your liquid, which is displayed on the "password entry" screen when the unit is initially powered on.
The 3.50 version of the software added the following updates:
- Added alternative boost estimate measurement based on MAF values, useful for cars with no MAP (boost) sensor or cars which boost beyond the limit of the MAP sensor.
- Torque peak value now displayed in BHP graph when Torque overlay is selected.
- Gridlines now added when graphs are halted.
- Option to add boost line to Dyno plot added.
The 3.30 version of the software added the following updates:
- Other additional model support, not yet fully defined.
The 2.52 version of the software added the following updates:
- Imperial or Metric units can be set independently for the different gauge and graph types
- Extended graph and gauge scaling from 200bhp/ftlb to 500bhp/ftlb
- Second multi gauge display added (Air, Coolant, N75, Boost)
- Speed and RPM display added
- Auto power off function added to most displays on engine off
- Auto power off function added to most displays on engine off
- Auto power off function in main displays after 1 minute of non use
- Auto return to last gauge displayed on turn on
- Diesel 1.9Tdi engine support added
- Selectable BHP/Torque calculation method between ECU MAF and Torque data
The 2.06 version of the software added the following updates:
The 2.05 version of the software added the following updates:
- Changed fault code display to show up to 12 fault codes, previous was a maximum of 4
- Fixed negative temp display issue
- Inserted more exit points in the multi gauge display
- Increased delay time in multigauge from 5s to 6s before fetching oil temp to solve p[roblems on S3 and Leon
- Fixed "COMMS ERROR AFTER RESET" issue
The 2.04 version of the software added the following updates:
- Software fix for the remote joystick issues
- System reset forces screen brightness to max
The 2.03 version of the software added the following update:
- Added a single display graph showing all the following data at once:
The 2.02 version of the sotware added the following updates:
- Fixed dyno text positioning for metric units
- Added back in code for error handling
- Modified comms routine to handle other cars and do an auto baud rate detect
- Added special French characters
- Added exhaust temp alarm to trigger at 950 degC, alarm can be turned on and off with a right click and alarm trigget level can be changed with cursor up and down.
- Fixed exhaust temp alarm bug that sometimes turned off the back light
- Moved dyno results to left by 3 pix and right hand axis text by 2 pix
- Added special Finnish characters
- Commented out line 244 of the staretcf.c /* zero initialize the .sbss section */
- Moved 0-60/100 text to right and bottom so as not to clash with line
- Modified code so that setup variables are maintained through a software rest, this means that a customers setup will be kept until a power off.
The 2.01 version of the sotware added the following updates:
- New comms routine that automatically detects communication baud rate on start up with the engine management and the dash, at the first sign of comms problems the unit ceases trying to communicate and drops back to the main menu. This should prevent lock-ups on the Oil Temp screen
- New comms routine improves compatibility. Most Pre-CAN VAG cars are now compatible (known exceptionss are 2004 VW R32 and Audi MK1 TT with V6 engines).
The 1.07 version of the sofware added the following updates:
- Graph plot feature added to display timing pull.
- Peak hold capability added to most of the gauge displays.
- Color coding added to the Air/Fuel (Lambda) gauge, showing green for a rich mix and red for lean.
- Alarm function added to the exhaust temp gauge, when the temp goes over 900 C the gauge will flash.
- Fix made to screen brightness function
- Fix made to air intake and coolant temp peak values on graphs.
- Further details on the software revisions are provided on the RaceDiagnostics site.
