The Resources View combines all the worksheets required for firmware resource allocation, configuration and I/O monitoring.

  • 1 I/O Resources view.

The I/O Resources worksheet lists the Resource name, Pin name, Pin designation and Pin number.

The Filter section (Ctrl F) can be used to quickly find a resource from the list.

The Hide/Show Details toggle will show/hide the details view at the bottom of the I/O Resources worksheet.

Details View

The Details View shows the configuration details for each resource selected in the Resources worksheet.

I/O Pins

The I/O Pins worksheet is a pictorial representation of the ECU connectors showing the assigned pins.
Note: The ECU connectors pictured will be the ECU model shown in the package Summary.

When an I/O resource is assigned, the ECU pin will be highlighted in the pinout.
  • White = assigned input/output resource pins.
  • Green = Common sensor 5v and 0v pins.
  • Red = 12v pins.
  • Black = Ground pins.
  • Orange = Currently selected pin.
Note:
  • Hovering the mouse pointer over an assigned pin shows the Resource assigned and the pin name.
  • Hovering the mouse pointer over a greyed out pin shows the pin name.
Clicking on white input/output pins, highlights that resource in the I/O Resources / Details view.
Note: When two pins are required for one resource both pins will highlight orange. E.g. Differential Knock Input 1 uses pins D7 and D13.

I/O monitor

The I/O Monitor view displays the assigned resources, input and output values in the upper section. The lower section displays a time graph specific to the selected resource.

The Auto view within the I/O Monitor displays the relevant channels based on the resource selected.

Note: The green rectangles highlight a rapidly changing value.
