Uni-Tune Kit
- System Requirements
- Application
- Video's
Minimum requirements for the software to run properly are as follows:
- 1 gigahertz processor
- Screen set to 1024 x 768
- 500 megabyte hard disk space
- 512 Meg of RAM
- Serial port or USB to Serial Cable
- Windows XP operating system
Tip: When purchasing a laptop consider getting a 17" or larger monitor. With a bigger screen you will be able to open and view more than one software application at the same time. Tuning will be much easier if you can view the parameters displayed in a PC scan tool, Oscilloscope or air-to-fuel ratio meter on the same screen.
Special setup instructions
- Using a AC/DC (110V/12V) inverter with a laptop sometimes has feedback voltage problems, in which case try a different laptop charger (with better filter) or run the Laptop directly from the Laptop's own battery.
- If you do on-road tuning , run the laptop on its own battery power (see 1 above).
- Disable all power saving functions in Windows. You can find it under start, settings, control panel, performance and maintenance, power options. Set all options to “never” so the laptop doesn’t turn off the monitor, hard disk, go into standby or hibernate when running on the mains or batteries.
- Disable all screen savers while tuning the Unichip.
- Avoid having other programs open at the same time unless you have a powerful computer with enough memory and processing power.
- Use a good USB to Serial cable. Some cheap cables cause software crashes while tuning.
- The bare-minimum kit required to tune Unichip Q & Q+ , including Unichips in Plug 'n Play kits featured on this website.
- Easily upgraded to a full Tuner kit later on by purchasing the Tuning Pots seperately.
