Failsafe 2nd Baro ?

Post by TheMonkey »

The CLT and IAT have a failsafe default of 180 and 70 respectively if the plug comes undone, sensor gets pulled, wire crimp fails, or not hooked up on stim. Can the same be done for 2nd baro? Just might get a guy home without a laptop if on the road and something happens. Right now, unplugged gets 8 kpa and the fueling becomes out of bounds.

Yeah that seems like a good idea. I know I have it limited to 80-120 or something like that when it does a first read for baro with only the map sensor. But I can't think of a reason why we shouldn't bound it the same way for a 2nd baro sensor.

80 Kpa on the low end may be a bit to tight - on a bad air day at Bonneville I have seen the baro as low as 83Kpa... 75Kpa might be a better low limit.

OK - I will change it to 75 when this version goes out officially.
