Package contents
A Package contains the following:
- Firmware
- Tuning data
- Security information
Each M1 Tune Package contains three objects that are used for controlling the behaviour of the ECU: Channels, Parameters and Tables.
| Object | Package Segment | Definition |
|---|---|---|
| Channels | Firmware | A Channel is a system variable which is updated in the ECU firmware upon execution. Channels cannot be modified by the user. An example of a channel is a sensor value, such as throttle position. |
| Parameters | Firmware (for definition) Tune Data (for value) | A defined value which may be altered by the user in M1 Tune. These are the values that the tuner modifies to setup ref/sync mode, gear ratios, engine speed limit etc. |
| Tables | Firmware (for definition) Tune Data (for value) | Tables are a basic component of many control strategies such as fuel and ignition delivery, and gearbox control. A table is made up of a number of pre-configured axis types. From within M1 Tune these axes can be turned on and off, the axis sites changed and the contents of tables modified. This is one of the main ways to configure the M1 ECU. The number of axes and the number of set points are defined in Build, as are the input components and output units. |
