microsquirt and vtec

Post by rug »

It has been a while since I studies MS, and now there is Microsquirt. I really would like to use this small box in my classic Mini project which will have a honda b16 engine, but I need to be able to control the VTEC solenoid (on at >= RPM value).

Are there some "spare ports" that can be configured for this on the microsquirt? (like on the regular MS-II?)

Yes there are some spare ports such as the led light signals. Since microsquirt doesn't really have the leds and the signals go out to the external Ampseal, this makes it very easy to use these, and the spare port logic is the same as for MS II.

I wasn't sure about the LEDs being available since I couldn't find them in the pinout list. But then farther down the page I found them on the µSquirt -> relay board.

Great stuff!
