Topic: Ask for new feature about relay output
Hi Stefan,
I recently purchased a FIS-control for my Audi S4 (B6). Installation was very easy and it works flawlessly !
Before my questions, I just want to thank you for your work ! And also thanks to Turbozentrum : fast delivery (1 week) despite the "out of stock" state when I purchased it.
On my S4, I installed 2 electrical exhaust valves just before the two mufflers. Very nice sound when they're open, otherwise, I barely hear the V8 (that's too bad...).
Before having the FIS-control, I was opening/closing the valves with the 2 buttons of the wiper stalk, using the CAN bus (Arduino + CAN-bus shield from Watterott.com, listening the data sended when pressing one of those buttons).
It is not anymore a good solution because FIS-control use those 2 buttons also. Now I would like to use the relays output, using the menu of the FIS-control.
So now is my first question : is it possible to rename the labels in the menu ? ("Relay 1", "Relay 2", ...)
The perfect solution would be a new option in the main menu, something like "Exhaust valves" (and maybe a french translation because I'm French ) and then a screen to select "Open" or "Close".
(it would still command a relay output, connected to my Arduino - with a voltage divider - which command the stepper motors of the valves)
I know for that solution, only you can do that and make a new firmware, so I don't know if you have time to do that (or simply want it).
I would be happy to do it myself, but I don't think you want to share the source code. If so, I would be happy to help you for anything on this project (I'm a professionnal developper, C# essentially, not really the same thing than making a firmware for microcontrolers, but I already developped some personnal programs on Atmega microcontrollers).
Thank you by advance for your reponse.
Best regards,
Benoit
