Hello folks, I am working on an improved version of the MPG sensitive cruise control. This time I will be using both the speed signal and the engine load signal that I captured from the Ford's MAP sensor. Both signals will be fed to and Arduino and a program will compare theses signals and determine if it's more convenient to regulate the engine load or the speed. In other word,s you will have 3 settings, desired engine load, upper and lower speed limit. If the conditions are right, the cruise control will regulate the load, but if the speed increases or decreases to much, it will go back and forth from load to speed regulation. It will have a hysteresis gap.
I need some help on how to interpret the pulses from the VSS and the MAP sensor and convert them to a frequency related number. Any help will be appreciated. Any one of you that have worked with the MPGuino, please let me now how the use the injector and the VSS pulses and how they convert them and manage those signals.
Anticipated Thanks;
Jomel Maldonado
