• Gearbox parameters are set by the manufacturer. With this software you will be able to
change these settings to your liking. Any wrong settings may damage the transmission and
only you will be responsible. So make sure that the settings are set according to the
guidelines or consult an expert in tuning to prevent damages.
• Do not engage the lockup clutch in the lower gears as it will put unnecessary wear on the
friction plates of the clutch.
• Do not connect 12 Volt directly to solenoids. Some are control solenoids which may
damage in the process. Make sure that the wiring is correct for this reason.
• Solenoid supply voltage must be connected via a relay and fuse for protection.
3. Requirements
3.1 Transmission Requirements
The transmission must be of the electronically controlled type. The older transmissions were
controlled by hydraulic hardware inside the transmission and cannot be converted to computer
control. Also note that the mechanical shifter is still required for some of the transmission
selections like Park, Neutral, Reverse and a mechanical 1,2,3 and Drive setting. There may be a
line pressure cable present on some of the transmissions which must be correctly adjusted
according to the manufacturer specifications. You will require the following:
• The transmission with electronic solenoids
• The connectors on the transmission
• Relevant control signals and sensors (RPM signal, TPS, Speed Sensor)
• A Shifter to select mechanical positions
• Shifter position switches where specified
Notes on RPM Signal
This pulse must be a 12V to ground signal and may not be connected to coil negative. The high
voltage spikes on coil negative will damage the unit permanently.
3.2 PC Requirements
• Pentium 4 Laptop
• Windows XP with service pack 2 or later, Vista or Windows 7. Note that Vista or Windows 7
do not operate with other than the Spitronics USB cable. Vista is also not as stable and
some laptops struggle to communicate with USB converters.
• Serial Port or USB device with USB to RS232 Converter (19200 baud rate)
• Screen Resolution 1024*768
• Ensure that the latest drivers for the PC are installed.
This software is developed under the latest Delphi environment. It requires a lot of processing
speed and may not run on older computers.
