NEW FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS

Improvement of sequential gearbox management:
• Optimization of the gear upshift time (faster upshifting).
• Ignition cutoff at gear downshift (faster downshifting on strong breakings of the vehicle).
• Possibility to select the old way of shifting on slower or less precise gearboxes.
• The ECU agrees to intervene on the engine even if the gear position measurement is in error.
Read carefully new documentation for sequential gearboxes.

 Improvement of the fly by wires security:
• Stop of the fly by wire electric motor (the throttle closes) when the position measurement potentiometer is in error.
This avoids that the ECU forces on the electric motor, which can cause damages.

 Simplification of the engine tuning (From V200):
The Commander88 allows to manage as well in-line engines as complete ‘V’ engines,
WITH FOR EACH BANK OF CYLINDERS:
• an intake pressure measurement and a command of turbo with waste-gate or with with electric motor or with VGT (and in more a command of sequential or staged turbo)
• a throttle position measurement an,d a motorized throttle command
– a fuel pressure measurement and a command of fuel pressure pump (low pressure or high pressure for direct injection)
• a measurement of position for the intake camshaft and another for the exhaust camshaft, and a command of proportional positionning for both camshafts
• a richness measurement (wide band lambda sensor) with richness correction
This new version greatly simplifies the tuning of in-line engines, or ‘V’ engines that are not fully equipped with this dual equipment

LAST SECURITY CRITICAL MODIFICATION DONE

Not needed.

NEEDING Winjall V9.9.0.0 (see specific downloading)

V9.9.0.0 or later version of Winjall software must mandatory have been installed first.

HOW TO UPGRADE TUNEWARES

• Download new .zip Commander88 software pack file and save it in a directory on your hard disk.
• If you have already installed a former version of this pack, you have to usinstall it before installing this new one:
In Windows XP, execute ‘Start/Parameters/Configuration/Add-Remove programs’.
In Windows 7 and latter versions, execute ‘Start/Parameters/Configuration/Programs and features’.
In the software list, select Commander88 then ‘Uninstall’. Follow uninstall instructions.
• With the explorer, double click on the downloaded software pack .zip file, then double click on Setup. At the question on files extraction, answer ‘Extract All’.
• If the installation does not automatically start: in the new directory created by the extraction, double click on Setup (application).

VERSIONS HISTORY
(Improvements are added from a version to the next one)

Throttle/RPM : V210 (System V110)
Pressure/RPM : V210 (System V110)

1) Improvement of sequential gearbox management:
– A programmable ignition cutoff was already allowed on gear upshift.
– A programmable ignition cutoff has been added on gear downshift, facilitating the gears shifting during difficult conditions.
2) Auxiliary CAN-Bus management:
– Addition of two functions of simplified frames transmission toward the Sybele compatible dashboards.
  These functions allow a better confidenciality of the ECU tuning.

Throttle/RPM : V200 (System V110)
Pressure/RPM : V200 (System V110)

Simplification of the engine tuning:
The Commander88 allows to manage as well in-line engines as complete ‘V’ engines,
WITH FOR EACH BANK OF CYLINDERS:
• an intake pressure measurement and a command of turbo with waste-gate or with with electric motor or with VGT (and in more a command of sequential or staged turbo)
• a throttle position measurement an,d a motorized throttle command
– a fuel pressure measurement and a command of fuel pressure pump (low pressure or high pressure for direct injection)

Throttle/RPM : V110 (System V110)
Pressure/RPM : V110 (System V110)

1) Securization of the wheels speed measurement:
– In the previous versions, when the wheels speeds were slow, a speed measurement error could happen which was causing a brief dysfunction of the anti skating.
– This version prevents from the speed measurement error.
2) Securization of the engine synchronization with a camshaft target with one supplementary tooth:
– In the previous versions, When the phase sensor was reading a camshaft target with one supplementary tooth, the engine synchronization could fail with an engine start not done.
  A second try of engine start was then necessary.
– This version ensures a perfect synchronization of the engine even in these conditions.
3) Improvement of the fuel high pressure control on direct injection engines
The new possibilities of tuning of the high pressure fuel pump in direct injection allow a very improved control of the fuel pressure.
4) Adding of a variable displaying the status of the engine synchronization
This variable gives in real time the engine synchronization and can be recorded with the Winjall scopes to visualize possible problems of synchronization lost causing engine misfires.
