Hardware and Software features:

• User friendly software interface (both on laptop and touch screen);
• Fewer menus, better help screens, with advanced real time tuning features
  – Real time trace on fuel and ignition tables (Fuel Table Overlay, Ignition Table Overlay)
  – Configurable breakpoints on both axes, variable number of breakpoints up to 32 x 32 table size (higher resolution any where you want on RPM band)
  – Helps with idle, spooling. Add extra cells wherever you need
• Ability to import any specific tables from previous tune-up (Tools->Import Tables)
• True dual-table staged injection (not just “on/off”), each bank of injectors has its own dedicated fuel table for smooth AFR transitions
  – Makes it easier to tune and able to get more passes from your race engine
• Table Driven Per cylinder fuel trims (table for each cylinder/rpm and cylinder/MAP)
• Drag Racing specific timer functions for power management:
  – Timed RPM limit from launch
  – Driveshaft RPM timing retard/cut from launch
  – Load existing log file for time based functions
• Pro Nitrous features:
  – Control up to 6 stages
  – Fuel and Timing by stage
  – Individual fuel cylinder trim by stage
  – Bottle pressure compensation
• 380 MIPS PowerPC cutting edge processor platform
• Advanced ignition controls:
  – Distributor engines with or without crank trigger
  – Smart Coilpacks (GM LS, Pantera, etc.)
  – CDI ignitions (MSD, Jacobs, M&W, etc.)
  – Multiple trigger patterns supported natively (no external adapters required)
  – Intelligent trigger pattern decoding (noise reduction)
  – Sync loss error reporting (eases debugging ignition problems)
• Alcohol O2 sensor support (single or dual channel)
• Interface w/ Racepak dataloggers
• Canbus communication to other FuelTech products and available partners
• Onboard datalogging
  – Configurable sampling rate up to 200hz on all 128 channels
  – Plenty of onboard memory for an entire race weekend
  – Ability to start datalogging automatically by desired RPM (i.e. 5000rpm and above)
  – No need to worry about turning off battery before retrieving data because data is saved internally, instantly
• Advanced closed loop corrections
  – Simple or Advanced PID-based tuning for accurate fuel corrections
• Per cylinder O2 display and logging
