Hello Everyone,

PowerVision 2.7.10475
MPC-20 Standard Config - Advanced Mode

I am looking for the location of the following items within the configuration.

IO->Function On(ECU_Enable)
IO->Function On(Crank)
IO->Function On(Fuel_Pump)
IO->Function On(Alternator_Excite)
IO->Function On(At_Load_Clutch)
IO->Function On(Prestart_1_Delay)
IO->Function On(Prestart_2_Delay)
IO->Function On(Engine_Running)

etc.

and their "off" counterparts.

I am looking to add a "Idle" function to this list.

I might be able to figure this out on my own, if I could locate the IO-> Function items within the config.

The end goal is to basically scan through the relay listing and see what each one is set to, and turn which ones are configured for this "idle" function on or off, I could put in a separate routine to do this, but would prefer to tie into the IO listing if at all possible.

Let me know.

Hello Ocelot,

The search function for the Input/Output actions is found on the Applications tab by selecting the Input Output Port Manager application and the Actions tab. You should see the binoculars on the ribbon just above the list of available actions.

I think most of the functions you have listed will be turned on based on the states of the Current Engine State variable.

The design of the MPC20 configuration is that it doesn't care which relay or output channel has been assigned a function. The configuration also does not care whether a particular function has been assigned. The IO actions for the functions are called in the appropriate "state" activity program, when it is time for an output to be on or off. So you won't see anywhere in the config going through the list of relay or output channels.

For example, in the PreStart_2_Delay_ECS activity program, you will find the IO->Function On(Prestart_2_Delay). The controller set up may not have a prestart 2 output selected, so this action won't do anything.

Hope this can get you started.

Thank you.
