That's kind of weird. Might be a bug in the injector reading code. I'll look into it.

You can change the park (vehicle stopped, engine off) timeout in the settings from 2 seconds to however many seconds you want (up to 255 seconds).

The park timeout was meant to be short because the park timeout causes auto-saving to occur, and after the auto-save occurred, the user could then actually switch off the MPGuino (say, with using a switched ignition voltage source rather than a battery voltage source).

I am puzzled, though - apart from showing that the auto-save occurred, the park timeout screen should be exactly the same as the normal screen. The only time the screen changes is when the idle or EOC timeouts occur, or when the inactivity timeout is reached. You say the park timeout screen changes? Can you show me with a YouTube vid?

The coastdown test code uses these stored parameters.

Code:
	FrArea*1000 ft^2 or m^2 - vehicle frontal area
	rho*1000 - air density at the time of the coastdown test
	Cd SamplePd (s) - the period between actual coastdown samples
These stored parameters are returned by the coastdown test code

Code:
	C(d) * 1000 - calculated by the coastdown test code
	C(v) * 1000 - calculated by the coastdown test code
	C(rr) * 1000 - calculated by the coastdown test code

Very good job.
Thank you!
