Default Knock sensor sensitive?

I think the knock sensors are a little sensitive on a cooler night like tonight. How do i change the sensitivity of the sensors in EFI Live? Am i going to the right place? Eng.Cal.>Spark>Knock-Hardware>Knock sensor sensitivity. The current setting is on 0 for all rpm's. I can put in cells in multiples of 2 all the way up to 26.8. Is the higher the # less sensitive or the is 0 less sensitive?

Thanks for any input! I am still new to EFI Live

Careful....cooler weather = denser air and more oxygen content. It might not be false knock.

If you're sure it's not real, then I would start with B6244. The higher the numbers, the less sensitive the sensors are.

Thanks, how do i tell if it's false?

Can i just type in B6244 in the search in EFI Live and it will bring me there?
