Creating a Spark Table Variance File
Before starting to adjust your timing table for the first time, you will want to create a Spark Table Variance (STV) file. Click 'File' and 'New Spark Variance File". You will be asked for the stock GFS and MBTS tables for the tune you are currently working with. I gave the option of creating more than 1 STV file because I have seen people using different year model bins. Different years seem to reteact differently, so I figured this would be needed.
The Spark Table Varience file contains:
- The path to the original GFS and MBTS tables. These should be the stock tables for the bin you are currently working with
- A copy of the 2 tables (just in case)
- A third table containing the variances between the two tables. This will allow the user to create a new MBTS table by pressing only 1 button. Steps 1 and 2 probably are not needed, but what the hell. If something happens to the original files, we have a backup
- A record of timing reductions per cell automatically made due to KR. The amount of timing removed by this program is added to the amount removed from the previous update. This allows the program to keep from adding timing not only to cells currently with KR, but also cells with a history of KR. This option is, of course, optional.
The last STV file you use is your default and will be used every time unless you change it. I added a status bar on the botton to show which one is currently being used.
Here is a step by step on creating a Spark Table Variance file.
- Click 'File' from the menu bar (top of the screen) and click 'New Spark Table Variance File'
- Click 'Yes'
- You will be asked for a name, choose one and click 'OK'. I use the nam of the current tune I am working on so I can keep everything straight
- You wil be asked for you stock GFS table, click OK then browse to the file you saved when you exported it from PowrTuner
- You will then be asked for the Mean Best Torque Spark table, click OK then browse to the file you saved when you exported it from PowrTuner
- Click 'OK' and your filished. When the program starts next time, this file will be used when creating a MBTS table, and when saving KR informtaion to build a KR history for this tune. You can have as many different SVT files as you need. If you nee to use a different one, click 'File' and 'Select Spark Table Variance file', browse to the file, and click 'Open' The file that was used wne the program is closed is the one that will be used the next time the program runs.
