Some variables (with or without connection with the richness) were uncorrectly displayed when Winjall was required to work in Lambda.
- Intake or exhaust camshaft position target
- Fuel pressure target
- Tick over electrovalve position target
- Tick over electrovalve position target complementary command
- Relative difference to richness target
- Richness target complementary command
And also, when these values were the input variable of a map scale, the scales involved were incorrectly displayed.
2) For those that are using the display in Lambda:
It is important to read the new Winjall documentation "Traps and mines with Richness-Lambda display" which explains the traps when maps are used in Lambda display mode

V 4.0.0.0 : SECURITY CRITICAL MODIFICATION

A) MANDATORY INSTALLATION TO ACCESS TO NEW (SECURISED) MACHINES.
1) If this update is not done, the added consequences to security risks will be:
- Not be able to enter in Challenger4 machines, that have been loaded with V630 and latter versions by manufacturing or by a user
- Not be able to enter in Commander44 machines, that have been loaded with V260 and latter versions by manufacturing or by a user
See details in the 'Security update' function in Winjall User's Manual.
2) Machines access controled.

B) IMPROVEMENTS:
1) Mandatory installation to benefit from new Commander44 V240 and Challenger4 V620 Tunewares.
2) Permanent display of the comments in front of the data.

C) WINJALL ERRORS CORRECTION:
1) The injection time map modification in crankshaft degrees by 0.1% step had some problems: the quantity could be decreased when an increase by 0.1% was asked.
The actual quantity was however displayed in the map, allowing to spot the error.

 

V 3.9.4.0

Mandatory installation to benefit from new Commander44 V220 and Challenger4 V620 Tunewares.

 

V 3.9.3.0

Management of standard licenses with specific Tunewares to provide complete acces rights on one machine.
With this version, Skynam has the possibility to provide a specific Tuneware for only one machine to give the complete acces rights on this machine.
Many tunings and maps are not accessible (hidden) with the standard acces rights.
The complete access rights allow to execute far more advanced tunings, but also to generate serious errors, hard to find out.
Professionnal licenses, already allowing complete acces rights, can use this version too.
It is to note that Skynam only provides advanced technical support to the ones that have been following specific formation courses.

 

V 3.9.2.0

Management of professional licenses for year 2009
Owners of professional licenses for year 2009 must install this version for a correct working of the license.
Standard licenses can use this version too.


V 3.9.1.0

 Able to display the extended faults detections sended by the Commander ECUs.

 

V 3.9.0.0

 First version able to manage the Commander ECUsFirst version able to manage the Commander ECUs.


V 3.7.0.0 : SECURITY CRITICAL MODIFICATION

A) A CALCULATION ERROR HAS BEEN MENDED ON TUNEWARE SAVING ON HARD DRIVE
Under some conditions, after saving a Tuneware on hard drive (function 'Save Tuneware' or 'Update Tuneware') some maps could be lost.
After a Machine Update with a damaged Tuneware, the engine refuses to start, displaying an injection time of 65 milliseconds and an ignition advance near from 360°.
This 3.7.0.0 fixes this bug and warns when a damaged Tuneware is used.
1) Only internal maps and data not tunable can be damaged.
2) Your tunings are not damaged by this error.

B) DAMAGED TUNEWARE CORRECTION METHOD:
1) Open the damaged Tuneware on the GENERIC MACHINE. Winjall analyses the data and displays an error report.
2) Winjall monitors you to make a mending update:
At its request, select as mending base Tuneware a Skynam Tuneware of the same type than the one of the damaged Tuneware (ie : Throttle/RPM, sequential gearbox, ...).
The valid data of the damaged Tuneware (your data) are injected in this Genuine Tuneware.
The invalid data of the damaged Tuneware (not accessible data) are discarded and the Genuine Tuneware keeps its own.
Save the new done Tuneware when Winjall askes to with the name of the damaged Tuneware that has so been corrected.

C) USE OF THE KEYBOARD HAS BEEN MODIFIED
To better fit with Windows standards ((c)Microsoft Corporation), the use of the keys [PgUP] and [PgDown] has been replaced by the use of the [TAB] key.
1) To move from one displayed tuning page to another, use the [CTRL+TAB] combination for a forewarding move and [SHIFT+CTRL+TAB] for a backwarding one.
2) To move from one data to another in the displayed page, use the [TAB] key for a forewarding move and [SHIFT+TAB] for a backwarding one.

D) POSSIBILITY OF CREATING OTHER GENERIC MACHINES
To make easier compar and copy/paste data by hand without having to use a real ECU, you can create up to eight generic machines.
1) Ask the WinjNet context menu by right clicking in the WinjNet machine tree root (at the top of the main Winjall window left part).
2) Select 'Add another generic machine'.
3) Some former Tunewares cannot work on these other generic machines, as for exemple The Challenger4 Tunewares up to 6.10 version
You so have to download and install newer Tuneware versions, if they exist, to use this functionality.

 

V 3.6.0.0

This transitional version has been canceled and replaced by version 3.7.0.0.
We apologize to the ones who have installed version 3.6.0.0 : they have to install 3.7.0.0 or latter.
Some important but not visible complementary calculations have been added.

 

V 3.0.1.0 : SECURITY CRITICAL MODIFICATION

A) NEW WINJALL FEATURES:
1) Updates survey : Winjall announces and downloads new updates versions.
2) Allows to manage fauls strategies on ECU sensors.
3) Dashboards CAN faults detection improvement.
4) New function for bolted machines from professionnal Tunewares.
5) New professionnal Tunewares installation function.

B) WINJALL ERRORS CORRECTION:
1) Bug found in version V3.0.0.0 in the 'Machine Update' function : access rights calculation error forbids to execute the updates of the machines.
