I would say not. Generally, wheel speed sensors work without the mod: it’s just a case of setting the thresholds up correctly in SCal.

Sorry for all the questions!

I am currently picking up my 2 wire wheel speed sensors using bipolar
These are lotus/Vauxhall wheel packs

Not sure if I would need your hardware mod to pick these sensors up?

Cheers
Dave

Absolutely! You can download the User Guide from the Downloads/Technical info page – that will hopefully explain it all.

Hi Tim

Can you confirm that I can use the 4 additional inputs along side the motion sensor data (lateral/longitudinal/vertical G and yaw/pitch/roll). On the S6 GP ?

Kind regards
Dave

It’s being used on a Syvecs 6GP so hopefully won’t be too much of an issue.

I will be wanting to use it for the four wheel speed inputs, GPS, and the yaw sensors etc, for aiding traction control

Thanks for the info

Kind regards
Dave

If it’s used as a generic GPS unit on a Life Racing or Syvecs ECU then it is just a case of setting the ECU to expect GPS data, and the MEU to transmit it (a simple checkbox).

If it’s used in Syvecs/Life Racing “Slave mode” (so it behaves as an I/O expander) then some manual configuration of the ECU to receive the data is needed – all explained in the User Guide.

On a Link G4+ or any other ECU it needs manual set up of the ECU to receive the data in the right way, and each ECU type will have its on peculiarities as to what can be set up or not.

And we’re always here to assist.

Is there much software manipulation to get the gps unit working?
I know my way round it a little but not that clued up on everything

Kind regards
Dave
