Re: Thermocouple wiring to GPIO board?

Lance, Thanks for the good points and additional info about the circuit and wiring. I agree, best to design the wiring and interconnects as trouble free and accurate as possible. You are correct, my concern is moisture getting in the case while powered up. I intend to initially mount the GPIO in a c...

Re: Thermocouple wiring to GPIO board?

Lance, Thanks for your comments. I am typically a victim of "you don't know what you don't know" so I was wondering if anyone else had other solutions. I like to think out loud (online) and bounce ideas off people. I think any thermocouple wiring that relies on those non-water resistant co...

Thermocouple wiring to GPIO board?

Question: What are the various connectors to properly wire thermocouples (EGTs) to the GPIO case/board? Background/Discussion: I intend to use the 4 dedicated EGT circuits on the GPIO. I understand the importance of properly wiring thermouples to avoid adding additional junctions to the circuit as e...

Re: Can GPIO measure injector pulse width directly?

Lance, Thanks so much for the background material and circuit information and tips, all very very helpful! As typical, I was making this harder then it needed to be, glad to know GPIO can measure pulse width as you have show. Now to get the parts and pieces together, I'll report back here when I get...

Can GPIO measure injector pulse width directly?

Question: How to use GPIO to measure injector pulse width directly (in non-CAN, standalone mode, for datalogging) Background/Discussion: I would like to use GPIO in standalone mode to monitor vehicle speed along with injector pulse width for an instant MPG calculator in TunerStudio. The vehicle spee...
