Re: MrOnion's OnionBoard - GP IO/Power PCB (requires CPU boa

That was a long way of saying "I don't have time". It must've taken you a while to write! :-p Like I said I've committed to developing an EFI system which includes partaking in irrelevant banter on their forums, plus I use two fingers to type so I'm twice as fast as the average net dwelle...

Re: MrOnion's OnionBoard - GP IO/Power PCB (requires CPU boa

HAHA, sure. Thats definitely not how FOSS works most of the time. It's more like... We cannot reproduce your error, can you expand... can you try this... it's the same? ....ok try this... sorry I meant this.... or maybe this...Can you send me this file....Can you try this workaround and let me know ...

Nah, I don't have the time to debug someones else's work, especially across time zones, time is far too precious a commodity. Quicker and less painful to re-draft it.

Re: Single cam sync pulse for sequential control.

Similar, but just stick a VR sensor in there to pickup directly from the cam then use some signal conditioning to turn that signal into a nice readable pulse. There's no real attraction for me with sequential, I'm happy to use batch fire + wasted spark on my own stuff, VW engines generally don't rev...

Re: MrOnion's OnionBoard - GP IO/Power PCB (requires CPU boa

I'm on OSX but also have Linux in a VM if things don't work out but I prefer to work natively in OSX Standard install from downloaded files. Have also tried a more recent update branch that was supposed to fix the aforementioned issue but still the same. Will definitely fork and commit the changes o...

Single cam sync pulse for sequential control.

I have an idea to generate a cam sync pulse from the fuel pump cam on the dizzy drive. This gives one pulse per dizzy revolution. My assumption is that for sequential control all that is needed is a way to differentiate which cycle any given cylinder is on, a single pulse is theoretically all that i...

Re: MrOnion's OnionBoard - GP IO/Power PCB (requires CPU boa

Yes, the scripts extend and run under Eagle, they convert the component id's, the schematics and libraries first, then create a KiCad project. Lastly you have import the PCB natively in KiCad but this is the part that hangs for me. It might be enough to start with the converted schematics and re-lay...
