The WinjFtdi software allows you to read and display data from Sybele ECUs on an Android device, mobile phone or tablet.
The ECUs that can be read with WinjFtdi are:
- the Challenger5, Challenger6, Challenger7, Challenger8 ECUs
- the Meteor86, Meteor87, Meteor44, Meteor12 ECUs
You can get the full documentation on our website in the download page
To connect your Android device to the Sybele ECU, you need a USB-FTDI cable identical to the cable used to connect your Windows PC (Microsoft corporation) to the Sybele ECU and carry out the adjustment using our PC calibration software Winjall.
This cable is equipped with a USB type A connector (large USB), and as the USB output of your Android device may be a smaller USB connector, for example type C, in this case you will need an adapter that you will easily find on Internet sales sites.
LAUNCHING IN DEMO MODE:
If you launch the WinjFtdi software without the FTDI cable connected to your Android device, the software launches in demo mode: In this case, the software does all graph displays by generating demonstration changing values.
DISPLAY OF THE GRAPHS:
The graphs that can be displayed are
- engine speed
- throttle position from 0 to 1000
- engine temperature
- engine richness
- air pressure (intake pressure or atmospheric pressure)
- the engaged gear position
DISPLAY OF ALL THE MEASUREMENTS:
By tapping the arrow on the status bar, you switch from displaying graphs to displaying the list of measurements, and vice versa.
CLEARING SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC:
If the state message is not “Nominal working” but a diagnostic message, we can clear this diagnostic message:
To access the system diagnostic clearing, tap on the 3 dots to the right of the status bar. In the menu, tap on “Reset diagnostic“:
The diagnostic turns red to show that clearing is in progress then returns to “Nominal working”.
CONFIGURATION OF THE GRAPHS:
You can configure the graphs, their color, for some the minimum and maximum value displayed, and the type of unit used.
To access the graph configuration, tap on the 3 dots to the right of the status bar. You get the popup menu. In the menu, tap on “Graph configuration“:
You then obtain the graph configuration page with one tab for each graph. Tap on the tab of the graph you want to configure.
THROTTLE CALIBRATION:
The throttle calibration is used to indicate to the ECU the potentiometer positions minimum and maximum.
It allows to have no maps indexed to tensions of the potentiometer, which can vary with the life of the potentiometer or change completely if we change or un-mount the potentiometer, but on angles (from 0 to 1000).
The throttle calibration only appears and can only be carried out if the Android device is connected to the ECU in operation.
To access the throttle calibration, tap on the 3 dots to the right of the status bar: You get the popup menu.
Then tap on “Throttle calibration“
