Using Apexi PFC to Control Fans....How ???

[Red and Single]

Hi Guys  :wave

It\'s been mentioned over the last couple of days that you can use the Apexi ECU to controll the fans.  :yes

I\'d love to be able to do this as at the moment I\'m driving round everywhere with my Air Con on to keep temps under controll. I\'d love to be able to tell them to cut in and out at predetermined temps :yes

Can anyone help with how to do this please ??  :wiggle

I have an Apexi PFC and Commander installed ready to go :chat

Thanks in advance.... :chat

You need access to datalogit software,it is only possible to change fan temps via laptop and datalogit.It can not be done via the commander.

Arse  :spank

Anyone in or around the west midlands got this software and a laptop ?? :wave

Alternatively, does anyone have a copy of this software that they would like me to keep a backup of safe for them

[Red and Single]

Right, done a little research, obviously the software alone is of no use to me as it comes with several cables and conversion boxes etc etc.

Back to square one then :spank

im afraid so, shame you dont live near Surrey I have a datalogit/FCBox , I would have done it for ya.

I\'ll struggle on with using the air con for the winter months and maybe catch up with you at one of the meets next year ??

Thanks for your kind offer :chat

[BlitzBoy]

yep catch up at one of the meets only take a few minutes to do

Snap! I spotted this too, think it was the thread about over-heating engines. So I got into my car last night and got the commander out to change the setting - bugger me could I find it?!

At least now I know why I couldn\'t find the setting.  :rolleyes:

Are local tuners likely to have a datalogit/FC box? I have no idea where to go to get this done.

Cheers

I think all the Tuners/Vendors on this Board use datalogit/FC box.
Dont know who is closest to you Jon.

I think Max who tunes down at ReWorx may have proper Commander Pro Software which is even better then datalogit

[TonyBlair]

Essex needs a rotary tuner. I live on the coast in Essex and therefore all the tuners on the board are 200+ miles from me  

Blitzboy, you mention you have a Datalogit... is it like a univeral tool that perhaps a Cosworth tuner might have/use, or is the Datalogit specific to RX7\'s?

Cheers
Jon

[BlitzBoy]

No its specific to Jap cars with the Apexi ECU fitted.
You can buy the Datalogit from this link

But anyone willing to wait until for the next big meet next year I can do your fans for you.

Thanks for the info mate - cheers!   :wave

All the best,
