Getting started flash II

[PlayingWithTBI]

I'm figuring it out somewhat, the only thing left is to shut off the EGR. The components are no longer there of course, I seem to recall something about increasing a value in the EGR settings?

Yes, in Scalars go down to "EGR - CTS Enable Threshold" and set it to ~150, hopefully your engine will never reach 150° C

Alright, I'm now at the point where I need to flash in the code. The weekend got busy so that had to wait, the instructions for flashing seem pretty straightforward, but I appreciate any advice I can get.

In a nut shell, connect your laptop to the EBL, match your Comm Port with your Laptop, with KOEO, look to see you're connected. Click on Display, flash, Select bin, OK, select bank. Then click on apply, it should do its thing and you'll see it flashed in ~4 seconds. Turn the key off for ~10 seconds. Then you're ready to start it up and see what happens...

Thanks, does it matter which bank I select?
Also before the first start how do I set dist.? Do I disconnect the brown wire before I start it and then set the timing ASAP?

Any bank will work, maybe start at bank 0 and work your way up. Did you set your PROM ID number? As you modify/tune your .bin you can increase your PROM ID by 1 digit so you have a history of your changes from .bin to .bin

You have your distributor pointing to #1 cylinder at TDC Compression stroke right? Leave the EST bypass wire hooked up for now. You'll want to set your Initial Timing with engine warmed up to operating temp. If it won't run for you at 1st, you can play with it until it does. Then, if you have to break in the cam, do that 1st following the procedure from the cam company. Then go to fine tuning your Initial Timing. Note; with some stiffer cams you may want to set it at ~10° advanced and then put that number in "Scalars SA-Initial SA". That may help with start up.

I'm having trouble getting the What's up display to connect to one of the (COM & LPT) ports, I see a COM three through nine in device manager but I don't know how to enable one of them?

Edit- never mind, I unplugged it plugged it back in and now it's receiving valid data.

Started it up, went through cam break in procedure. All is good so far ..
