Android Doc Ver:4.0 Jul. 2019

Support is only for the software (Android vers. only), no advice or recommendation
will be given on the use of maps. Except the brief descriptions available on the site,
no additional information will be provided on the maps, for any additional questions,  please ask in the appropriate forums.

No support when it comes to such trivial questions as:

• Is my bike compatible and which functions are supported (see simply in the Bikes List)
• Which cable do I have to use and where can I get it (see simply "System requirements")
• Which Bluetooth adapter do I have to use, etc., questions that everyone can answer for themselves
  if they only deal a little with the instructions and the software itself.
  

Map Editing

This description was created for the Windows version of TuneECU and can be applied
largely on the Android version. Deviations in the Android version will be added here by 

and by.

The Windows version and support is no longer available.
Please use the Android version of TuneECU.

The programmer has provided a small video for the Android version, which shows
the basic functions for map editing:
Instructions for modifying a TuneECU map with the Android version (Author: Alain)

---

On selecting  the mapping mode for the first time, TuneECU will ask for a map file (.hex file, downloadable
on the Net) or read directly from the ECU. On restarting TuneECU the last opened map is displayed.
You must select a mapping that matches your model of motorcycle and its configuration (eg. type of exhaust).

<MENU> Display- Map Infos

When you select a map as in Figure 6, details of the map (such as motorcycle, etc) are displayed and can be updated (freeform text box) and saved as part of the map (.hex) file.

Serial, map, checksum (check sum) Information on the ECU: Serial, mapping, checksum (check sum) and counter reprogramming. Click in this field to see information from the second ECU (KTM 690).

Below this are various tables that make up the map (click to select):

• F1-4:main fuel table for cylinder 1 to 4 / RPM & butterfly opening or F3-1 corresponding to the position
  of the mapping switch on the KTM 690.

• Fuel trim: Adjustment for the Fuel table F (in %).
  Right click on a F table,  if not visible, e.g. KTM 690

• L1-4: fuel tables for low throttle opening (RPM  & engine load, derived from manifold air pressure),
            L3-1 for KTM 690
  These tables are used instead of the main fuel tables at low throttle positions.
  These tables are indexed by manifold air pressure.

• I1-4: the tables for ignition advance, I3-1 and I-LOF (Low Octane Fuel) for KTM690
  I-Tables Daytona 675, at these model, are the I-tables depending on the selected gear.
  I (1st) = 1. gear, I (2 - 5th) = 2. - 5. gear, I (6th) = 6. gear and I (N) = Neutral
  In the I-tables (ignition timing tables) displayed  values are the advance ignition in degrees (°)
  before TDC (top dead center). The higher the value, the more advance ignition.

• Special features regarding the ignition-table-names of the Aprilia Shiver, Dorsoduro
  and Caponord 1200 models

• I (T & S) = Ignition table mode Touring and Sport
• I (R)        = Ignition table mode Rain.

• Ignition trim: Correction of ignition tables ( degrees°).
  Right click on a I table,  if not visible, e.g. KTM 690.

• Air/fuel: the ratio mixture of  air/fuel (AFR)

• Engine idle: Idling speed as a function of the temperature.

• Exhaust Valve (Daytona 675): the position of the exhaust flap/rpm.

• Second butterfly ( Daytona 600, 650, Rocket III & KTM):
  the position of the second butterfly depends is on the rpm and gear ratio.

• Change-over F-L: the transition of the tables F after L and vice versa (RPM vs. throttle % open).

• The ETV tables, are only tables for the gear ratio of the throttle grip to the stepper motor that
  moves the throttle valves (0-100%). 
  These tables are for the different driving modes (e.g. Rain, Tour and Race) for the ETV models e.g.
  from Triumph, there are further tables for each selected driving mode, which operate depending on
  the gear selected.
  For the following description, the map of a Triumph Street Triple 765 was used as an example.
  Stepper value 0 in the ETV table = throttle valves closed.
  Stepper value 1680 in the ETV table = throttle valves fully open (100%)
  The stepper motor on this model has 1680 steps as a step to open the throttle valves 100%.
  Means: 100/1680 = 0.058 ... - The stepper motor can vary the throttle position to approximately 0.06% accurate.

• Special features regarding the ETV table-names of the Aprilia Shiver, Dorsoduro
  and Caponord 1200 models

• Map T = ETV-table mode touring
• Map S = ETV-table mode sport
• Map R = ETV-table mode rain

• For Benelli models: TnT Sports, TNT CR, TreK1130, TnT standard (05/06) and TNT R160.
  For the  models, TnT Sport, TnT CR, and TnT TreK1130 standard (05/06), Map1 (I & F)
  the maps is for reduced fuel consumption = reduced performance. Map0 (I &F)  is for open
  performance and maximum torque.
  For the TNT R160,  Map1(I&F) is for use with DB-killer, and Map0 the map is for operating
  WITHOUT DB-Killer, Map0 (I&F) is not suitable for use with DB killer. (Source http://www.benelli-info.de) 

• The parameters and devices of the Mappings: 
  RPM rev limiter, temperature trigger (fan), Road speed reading correction (range of 0%  to -6% correction),
  Limiting speed (Rocket III), Air Flap & Exhaust Valve Daytona 675, cutoff time Quick Shifter (Daytona675
  from model 2009), injector flow rate and A / F target (Sagem).
  The status bar displays the battery voltage, condition of the injection system (operating in closed or open
  loop), adaptation state for the TPS (Keihin), storage drive location and filename of the loaded map.
  Note: Not all parameters for all bike models available.

• Setting parameters and  switch on or off the devices such as SLS, O² sensor, etc.
  Note: There not any parameters and devices in all bikes are available.

Double-click the desired parameter and change it according to your wishes. Use the Esc key to undo the changes to make. Otherwise, the new values ​​will be automatically used as default values​​. The revised map must be saved in spite of this and can then be uploaded to the ECU. For turning on or off a device (eg, the SAI) with the left mouse button on the Device make a double-click or click the device with the right mouse button and select "Enable" or "Disable". Caution: Do not disable the secondary butterflies (KTM) only if the butterflies or the secondary system (motor PAP and second GST (TPS) ) are removed.

The parameters for the two Benelli 1130 Map's (Map 0 and Map 1) can be changed separately,
select the table 0 or 1 (F or I), so you can access to the appropriate parameters.
The display "parameter" changes automatically depending on the chosen F or I map,
to "parameter (Map 0)" or "parameter (Map1)".

Fig.7a

Fig. 7a: (Top Left) ECU information: Serial Number, map ID number, checksum and meter reprogramming.
Below this are various tables that make up the map (click to select):

• F: the main Fuel table ( rpm and throttle position %).

• Fuel trim: Correction of the fuel tables F (in %)

• I: ignition advance tables

• I Limit: ignition Limit

• I Idle: ignition Idling

• I Idle (N): Ignition. The (N) table is used when the bike is in neutral.

• Ignition trim: Correction of ignition advance table I  (in °).

• A/F1: Air/Fuel mixture based on engine load (in %) vs RPM.

• A/F2: Air/Fuel mixture based on the RPM. The A/F 2 table works the same as the A/F 1 table when the motor is at full load. Full load and full throttle are not the same. Load % is derived from the difference in readings between the Manifold Air Pressure and atmosheric (airbox) pressure.

• Idling: idling speed according to temperature.

• Warming-up phase: Air/Fuel mixture dependent on the engine temperature.

• ETV = Electronic Throttle Valve:
  The ETV tables are only tables for the gear ratio of the throttle grip to the stepper motor that moves
  the throttle valves (0-100%).
  These tables are for the different driving modes (e.g. Rain, Tour and Race) for the ETV models e.g.
  from Triumph, there are further tables for each selected driving mode, which operate depending on
  the gear selected.
  For the following description, the map of a Triumph Street Triple 765 was used as an example.
  Stepper value 0 in the ETV table = throttle valves closed.
  Stepper value 1680 in the ETV table = throttle valves fully open (100%)
  The stepper motor on this model has 1680 steps as a step to open the throttle valves 100%.
  Means: 100/1680 = 0.058 .. - The stepper motor can vary the throttle position to approximately 0.06% accurate.

Changing values and parameter of tables (advanced user):

It is advised against making changes to the following values as the installed map is optimised for your setup.

• F
• Fuel trim
• I
• I Limit
• I Idle
• I Idle (N)
• Ignition trim

However if you have a dynamometer, it is always possible to adjust the values to achieve better performance, knowing that the best power is obtained with an AFR value of 12.8 and 14.7 for lower consumption.

Other tables can be modified according to your preferences:-

A/F1:	Air/Fuel mixture in the relationship engine load (in %) to the rpm.
A/F2:	Air/Fuel mixture in relation to the rpm. The A/F 2 table works the same as the A/F 1 table when the motor is at full load. Full load and full throttle are not the same.
Idling:	Idling speed dependent on the engine temperature
Warming-up phase:	Fuel/air mixture dependent on the engine temperature.

Select another map for comparison with the currently loaded map.

Select a different map for comparison. Pressing the <F6> key to view the values.
If you press the F6 key again, you return to the current loaded map.

The compared map that was opened to compare the values, you can copy values ​​and then paste in
the other map (currently loaded map).

Comparison can also be displayed in GRAPHIC mode (F5 key-see Display-Graphic mode below).
Compared table is displayed as dotted.

The currently displayed filename is shown in the Status Bar.
To exit comparison, select this menu again and select CANCEL at the file selection dialogue box.

Importing a PCIII or PC-V table (PowerCommander 3 or 5)
<Menu> File-Import PC Table (.djm table or .pvm table):
Applies *F-corrections* from a PCIII or a PC-V table  in the "F-Trim" table.
If available the Ignition table** will be imported into the I Trim table.

    *  includes support of "cylinder Advanced" feature, but not the "Gear  Advanced", in this case you must
       choose the "Gear" table to import.
  **  Only the first Ignition table will be imported.

For KTM User:
TuneECU follows the KTM convention, and commits the Trim 1 to F1 (F1 in TuneECU = rear cylinder).
PowerCommander not follows the KTM convention, in the cyl. selective PCIII- or PC-V map
the table1 is the front cylinder.
You must change the values in the PCIII- or PC-V Map before you import the cyl. selective PCIII or
PC-V map with TuneECU.

For Sagem User:
Unfortunately, there is a small problem, TuneECU can probably import "cylinder-selective PC-Files" to a Sagem-map, but from these "PC-Files", only the first trim table in the main table (F-table) it is transferred.
This means that before importing such a PC file, this PC file from "selective cylinder file" to "BASIC file"
must be converted. This conversion can be performed with the Power Commander software.

Saving the  Mapping
Only possible with cable connection.

The modified mapping may be saved to disk:
<Menu> File-Save Map File

Nb. To preserve the originally loaded map, <MENU> FILE SAVE and save as a different filename.
Remember to update the MAP INFO text box to describe the updated map.

Exit the Program

Reset Adaption Keihin only - Triumph models (not applicable for Sagem models):
After downloading (Fig. 12), a reset of the adaption is required.
Turn off and on the ignition, wait ten seconds and turn ignition off again.
Now turn on the igniton again.
Wait until with the connection re-established with TuneECU proceed :-

<Menu> ECU Reset Adaption
Then start the engine and let idle until the “TPS” status indicator (in the status bar) changes to green (after 15 to 20 minutes).

Reset Adaption and/or initialization-run - Keihin ECU - KTM only

After downloading a FI-map, start the engine and run at idle (without touching the throttle) for 15 minutes
and then the engine turn off.

990cc models SD, SM, and Adventure:

Reset Adaption Triumph-Sagem-Lambda-models only.

The manufacturer of Triumph motorcycles describes this process as follows:

Fuel System Adaption — e.g. Daytona 955i, Sprint ST, Sprint RS, Tiger, TT600 and Speed Triple
(only Sagem models with Lambda)

The fuel system fitted to the above models is adaptive. This means that the engine management system will
self-adjust air fuel ratio (i.e. the mixture setting) to its optimum level in order to ensure differing running conditions do not result in poor running.

During an adaption, the engine management system examines the air--fuel ratio as measured by the oxygen sensor in the exhaust system and, if necessary, makes an adjustment. In some cases, a single adaption may
be sufficient but in others, more adaptions will be necessary.

An adaption take place when all the following conditions are met:

- Gearbox in neutral, clutch engaged.

- Coolant temperature 80 -- 100 °C

- Airbox temperature 21°C minimum

- Engine idling for 10 -- 30 seconds

Once adaption has taken place, the settings are retained ensuring that adaption is not necessary every time
the engine is started.

Particularly for new bikes, where the engine has not been run-in, it may be necessary for dealers to ensure adaption has taken place before handing the motorcycle over to the customer. This can, of course, apply at
any other times as well.

To force adaption to take place, start the engine and warm it up until the above conditions aremet, adaption
takes place automatically. Blip the throttle every 30 seconds to start another adaption cycle. When coolant or
airbox temperatures are above or below adaption thresholds, allow the engine to cool or warm-up before
continuing.

To check that adaption has been completed, scroll the Triumph diagnostic tool to DIAGNOSTICS--CURRENT
DATA--LAMBDA FUEL. in a correctly adapted bike, the lambda fuel reading should show 0.0% (though
operators should note that the figure will continue to change during engine operation but will settle at 0%
briefly but regularly.

If reading higher than +3% or --3% are seen continuously, adaption is necessary and can be brought about
in the conditions mentioned earlier (remembering that more than one adaption will be needed on occasions).

If a stationary LAMBDA FUEL figure of --19.6% is seen, download the correct tune for the model in question
and begin the adaption process as described.

Finally, use of the SET LONG TERM FUEL TRIM adjustment in the Triumph diagnostic tool should be reserved
solely for when replacement ECMs are newly fitted (or are transferred from another bike).

In clarification, the following described process should be not so correct.
1. Ensure bike is seeing a closed throttle position (CTP),
     if not, then perform TPS reset.
2. Bike in Neutral
3. Coolant temperature between 80-96°C
4. Minimum air box temperature of 21°C
5. Now with clutch pulled, blip the throttle to 3000 RPM and let it drop back to idle for at least 30 seconds,
    all with the clutch lever pulled in.

Check bike is adapted by viewing Lambda Fuel.
Figures should be "toggling" +4 to -4

After download from an new map, you must perform an initialization run.
The 990s must be on the center stand, and are thus stand vertically. For SD / SM models use a Paddock Stands
or the side stand with a piece of wood underneath.
The engine must be cold.
There should be the coolest possible air temperature outside, this can be very helpful for a lower fuel
consumption.
Start the engine and let it run at idle for 15 minutes. During these 15 minutes, not use the throttle or
any other functions.
The 15 minutes need to be strictly adhered to, and must not fall below. The time can only be exceeded by
a maximum of one minute.
Should the engine go out, then re-start ONLY, do not begin 15 minutes again. (Source: German KTM Forum)

If you want to perform an initialization run only, you must first reset in any case the adaptation.
