weird dead time issue found. (bug?)
Posted: Sat May 04, 2019 6:14 pm
first the bug. then how I found it.
open up new calibration. P30. go to dead times. write down the number and/or screen shot. Then use the picker to choose b series 240cc. notice how 3 of the cells are dimmed suggesting they are changed? Look at what you wrote down or the screen shot. see same values!
How I found this I was trouble shooting a miss once in vtec. I was thinking it was because of low voltage. well it kinda was. it was really the dead times were off when the voltage dropped. once I used the picker to choose the (same) values, the miss was gone. I saved the calibration. and tried the picker again just to see if it was something weird with using the picker. nope. no dimmed cells. I tried another new p30 calibration. and the miss came back. I used the picker and poof the miss was gone. I have not looked into the actual calibration file to see if something changed. but thought it was interesting.
