A more generic question

[pfk]

Is there a description list out there for an explanation of all of the different parameters?

I was reading Kenny C's thread about torque management and in his screen shots you can see the descriptive at the bottom, explaining the parameter itself and what the min max values are. I would like to either find one for my truck, or take the time to write one up.
( I find the easiest way to retain info is to re write it all and organize it accordingly)

Well, which engine do you have....different engines have different parimeters.

Sorry, I forgot about that,
Edited my sig to actually show what kind of vehicle I have :D

[pfk]

Here's what I would like to find, or if not, compile.

example:
ECM Switch Parameters
Auto / Manual Transmission (X = manual) (select if manual transmission)
VATS Select (X = Enabled) (select to enable vats)
Open Loop AFR Enable (X=Enabled) (select to enable air fuel ratio metering during open loop)

(I am guessing on the third one :D)

I figured by compiling a complete list, it would be easier for guys like me starting off to know what it is I am editing, why, what's it going to do for me and most importantly, what should I not do.

In the constants and tables section I would like to make notes like this (making it up again)

example:

Fuel Cutoff Speed (set speed limiter,min 1mph, max 299mph)
Normal Kick Down 1 -> 2 Shift (Speed) (set shift per speed min 1mph,max 299mph note:do not go past 40mph)

other notes would include which parameters are relying on others etc.

Fuel cutoff is like 255 mph max. I would keep the tranny figures where they are at except for the upshifts, I would start about 5400 rpms.

I would keep the tranny figures where they are at except for the upshifts, I would start about 5400 rpms.

I would not keep the shifts where they are. The part-throttle shifts are very low, even on a stock TBI truck.

I thought about the transmission issue first off when I bought my stuff from moates. I couldn't decide if I wanted a full time drag truck or a nice calm sunday driver with some kick,so I bought one of the kits for multiple programs with a remote switch to change between bins (I cant remember what it is called)

I guess you guys have remembered values from one of my other posts?

I started compiling my own list of parameters with my own notes next to them so it will help me out later on (plus its filling my head with questions to be answered) Once I complete the list I will share it here with others in case it can help them out as well.

I was just counting the different tranny related parameters, and I came up with 21 different parameters, does this sound correct?

tomorrow morning, or whenever I get up, I will make a list up of those parameters, note their values, and post back, maybe I'll go into the tranny tuning section for it instead of cluttering up this section, that way we can discuss specifics, and I can actually learn from what you guys are saying.
