Hi everyone !
My name is Marc, I come on this forum quite often but have never posted before so this is my first post. I'm graduating as an engineer this december after 5 years (damn you FSAE!!).
I've got a bit of motorsport experience (F1 as an intern for 6 months, World Endurance Championship as no.2 eng. on a GTE car, Touring Cars, GT3 Cup data eng., etc.) but no experience relating to engine calibration.
I currently work for a race team as a data/race engineer on race weekends. I'm basically in charge of damper and aero setup on a GT car.
We're running Motec M800 ECU. We recently got traction control and I've started dialing it in. We went out testing and from the data acquired I built a 2D table with speed and throttle position with target slip values...very basic I know, but the goal for now is to get it working
Here's my problem: Can I import a matlab or excel based file into the TC aimed slip table ? instead of changing the values one by one in the MoTeC ECU manager ?
I installed a 12 position driver adjustable switch and configured it to read the values in the aimed slip table and modify them by a +/- percentage. It's a quick way of doing changes at the track, but it modifies the whole table by a set value.
Any clues ?
