The inputs are kinda strange too...

4 of them let me input voltage and map that out... but there's 2 of them that seem to switch to ground when I set parameters in the scanner...

Now what in the world would anyone use these for? only things I've thought of so far are if you had something you only wanted on between like 3000 and 6000 RPM ... or maybe if for some reason you wanted a light to turn on at 6000 RPM to let you know you're at 6000???

Another oddity... I had a .bin file for a silverado on my desktop ... I thought it was my 02 f-body binary... and somehow it opened !!! I couldn't save any changes... but I could see all the various values ...

soon soon soon soon soon (just wanna see if heads still explode)


Good work HP Tuners! Goes to show that they truly do listen to us (the customer) ... lots of this is stuff we've asked for... and HPT actually gave it to us!

Or maybe if you wanted something to turn on between certain speeds (cags).

I guess you'd have to leave your laptop plugged in all the time for that though right?

That is correct. To use the programmable outputs you do need to leave your scanner running.

If I'm seeing things correctly, VCM controls in the scanner allowing real time changes of certain perimiters? If so that is about the coolest thing I have ever seen. That will make tuning for idle slight bucking conditions and absolute breeze. I hear the word is "next week." I just can't believe all the features that they added. You are right they really have been listening to us. This is freaking awesome.

Mine still looks like a turnip. But I tuned another car
with it yesterday.
