OK, so tonight I have drawn up the connector footprint in Altium, added it to the library and drawn the PCB up based off of my measurements. I buggered one of them up, but have it noted to be corrected on the next push to the repo.

Tonight's work has been pushed to my git repo :-)

Corbon - yes altium can import AutoCAD DXF files :-) I will PM you my email address.

Fred - I would like to talk to you about a few things potentially code related and/or feature related. The use of the diagnostics plug (as another RS232 port or CAN port) is one of them. If it is thought that it may be use-able for tuning, that would be cool too, but I doubt it as the factory cabling to the plug appears unshielded and could potentially cause issues. The use of the always-on philosophy would be nice for this too, as the ecu has inputs from the ignition barrel for the "ON" and "start/crank" positions and it also drives the main EFI relay as well.

Skype soon or something I guess. Whenever we are both available.

PCB size dimension corrected, all pushed to the repo!

Working on the schematics today. More from me ASAP! (I love git and I especially love git at work)

Hardware guys using Git, worth its weight in gold. Being the one that converted them, quite simply priceless.

PS, there is a jag thread that needs your attention, please.

yep, I am aware of the jag thread mate, haven't had time to compile a list of what circuit is on what supply yet. it is on my list :-)

EDIT: Pulled up and replied to it for you mate. :-)

OK so I now have some half-decent schematics now

Link --> https://github.com/dvisser/Nissan-RB25D ... f?raw=true

They are not finished yet, as I need to draw up the cas circuit, etc and I also need to talk to Mr Fred aka firmware guru!

:-)

NOTE: there will be some off-sheet links, etc that do not line up or make sense, these will be corrected in the next push.

EDIT: added note.

PDF updated with CAS interface circuit added.

Going to print out the PDF now and red-pen all areas needing alterations/work :-)

Initial alterations/red-pen areas corrected.

A few minor things to do on the schematics, then a chat with Mr Cooke, correct anything based on assumptions I have made, then the PCB can be routed out! :-)

Project PDF updated and pushed to repo!

It appears Altium doesn't like the image I put on the connector sheet when it tries to convert it to PDF.

As a temporary solution I have printed that sheet to PDF, so you can all see it as intended.

I will look in to why Altium is doing this when I get a chance and post up what I find (if anything).
