Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I thought I would share with those who may be interested a photo of the
first testing stage of an auto start and diesel engine management system using the maximite that I am working on. Software is working but some more refinement is required

Very nice.
Is the water temperature correct?
Does the vehicle have an ECU or did you set up your own sensors?

The oil & temp readings are only test figures using variable resistances. The targeted engines are stationary water pumps using turbo diesels and don't have ECU's. This system is to start the engine, warm up,ramp up to a programmed rev range and monitor the parameters to shutdown on faults or ramp down on task completion.
