DTA S40 Pro and Innovate MTX-L - brown or yellow?

Post by mr.brown »

Hello all, I'm slowly beginning to think about maybe wiring up my S40 Pro and have noticed that my Innovate MTX-L has two analogue outputs. From the manual:

Analog output one (yellow) is 0V = 7.35 AFR and 5V = 22.39 AFR.

Analog output two (brown) is 1.1V = 14 AFR and .1V = 15 AFR.

Any ideas which one I should use?

:)

Yellow, this gives you the full 5v resolution
The Brown one replicates the output of a standard narrow band.
Make sure you select the pre populated sensor calibration in the lambda settings in the DTA, also use the dedicated earth from the inovate > DTA to minimise any voltage offsets.

You can program either to do what you want.

So do that.

And program them to flatline outputs to test to see what the DTA reads to ensure there are no wiring issues causing different readings then create scalings to suit your needs.

Default is wideband on yellow, so fit that to the ECU, and click the Innovate option in the software.

Never trust their outputs without testing !

Indeed, I have an Innovate Gauge thing that doesn't output what it's supposed to, but I can't figure out how to fix as the thing won't connect to my computer, Doh.
