Jamie told me there were some calibration additions but nothing major to his knowledge. I didn't bother upgrading, but I did update PV Tune to 1.2.0.0. The first thing I noticed was that the color-coding option no longer works. It's in Options but does nothing. I find the black on red cell color is difficult to read and suggested that they offer a no-color option (black on white only), which works best for me.
Cool. I check for updates every couple weeks. I remember some time back that Jamie posted that there would be a "Game changing update" where you would be able to do everything with the PV like update your tune with the PV hooked to the bike or something like that. I look forward to those types of changes.
Thanks
The PV records ECM data at a rate of approx 15/sec, sample rate limitations are due to the speed of the ECM's data bus. By comparison the PV and WB Auto Tune have the ability to sample several hundred times per second.

Jamie, can knock control be turned ON/OFF from the PV screen or can it only be modified from within WinPV. Is knock control being considered for tune editing from the PV in the future, if its not available today?

I did a short run today but not long enough to know if my small changes made any difference, although I didn't hear any pops. I've been pulling .01-.02 out for every trial, only ≥205°, which may not be enough unless the tuner wants to proceed at a painstaking pace. I'm going to also take some out down to 118° like you have, though.

Re:
I just got my PV mounted and everytime I've taken my bike out on a ride with a gauge screen on, the PV stops working and the gauges stop too. It's random when it happens, sometimes it works for 5 minutes and sometimes it's 20. Has anyone else had this issue? Btw I am not logging yet, this is just monitoring with the gauge screens.

I'm not Jamie, but my tune has a parameter to switch it off. It's in Limits and Switches > Knock Control. Use "1" to enable, "0" to disable.

My stock values look exactly like yours, so if it pops now with my latest adjustment I'll just plug your values into the table. I'm not that far from them now anyway.

How did you run your wires? You can't just run them under the fuel tank, as you will get electrical interference from spark plug wires, etc. Really need to take your fuel tank off, which is not that difficult (get the service manual) and run them along the tray and tie them down, leaving enough room when your handlebars are turned.
I wouldn't run PV wires under the tank on the left side, which would probably be too close to the plug wires that are looped around under the tank.

Given the Tune Edit features available directly on the PV, I'm surprised it's not included as an "editable" feature from directly within the PV (or at least I haven't been able to find it if it does exist). It would certainly be a helpful feature to have from my perspective.
If you wanted to run without the knock control feature ON (which can unneccesarily reduce performance under certain circumstances), you would need to use up 2 tuning map slots. One with Knock Control OFF and a second identical map with the Knock Control ON.
The better alternative is to only have the tune loaded to one slot and simply have access from the PV to turn the knock control ON/OFF as needed. Since there's already a list of editable tune features, it would seem this is an easy update if it doesn't already exist.
