Seems like a cool setup. I’m assuming if you hook up the MAP port you can also make a virtual vacuum advance with the 3D table. That would be really nice.
To use your programmed 2D ignition graph/table, did you need to "lock out" your distributor? I'm assuming yes, but I can't find a definitive answer. And contrary to the feedback, thank you for the video! There unfortunately seems to be very little (if any at all) technical resources or videos about this specific ignition box. Too new of a product I suppose.
thanks, yes after I locked the distributor I had to set the timing at 15 degrees (if I remember correctly) and then go back to the app and tell the system to read the 2d program. There the system reads whatever you have programmed as a graph. It didn't show on the video very well, but on mine I had it start at 10 degrees and then ramp up to 35 and actually go down slightly after 5000 or so.
@@saltracer1 Interesting. Did your computer see that anything was plugged in when connected? When I plug my box in to the computer the box power light comes on but the computer doesn't see any cord being plugged in at all. Tried 4 computers and 3 cords. The phone app works for me but I paid for full functionality and the laptop is supposed to have that. I'm going to send mine back to Summit and try another one but it's not sounding great.
@@saltracer1 So I got a replacement box and it was the same issue connecting to the laptop, however this time I tried a fourth cord and surprise both boxes connected. 3 out 4 of my cords are power only and no data. I imagine this is common place. Would it kill MSD to put in a $2 usb cord that works.
Really don't drive the truck much, but haven't had any problems with the ignition system. I am having the oil analyzed to see if the engine is eating a lifter.

@@saltracer1 awesome, thank you!
Have you had any luck using the MSD view on a laptop? I can't get any of my computers to show a connection.
I couldn't get it to work with my laptop, I ordered a new cable but then I got the phone app figured out.

David, I would have to try it again with my laptop, but if I remember correctly sounds exactly like yours.. charging light on but did not connect

Have you had problems with it deleting your settings and show any faults like kill switch activation or eprrom error

Can not connect to my ultra 6al no idea how. What a waste of money.
Stop crying
Who showed you how to make a video
@@EmoryTullis I guess that's a compliment?
What are you talking about? Confusing video.
do you have one of these? There is a phone app to program the 6al Plus. I was trying to help people, if it didn't help you I am a sorry.
