SM vs PL High Gear 02 Readings
« on: July 21 2017, 10:39:00 PM »
Recall on SM tonite showed 823...while PL checked in at 803. Any reason for the difference?

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Steve explained it in another thread. The ALDL port samples at 1.5 times per second...while PL is 5 times per second. I hit recall on the SM at the end of a run for KR...but I use PL for 02's in regard to tuning.

Let me rephrase that.  The ALDL port updates the SM approximately once every 1.5 seconds.  The PL updates a bit over 22 times per second.  The SM when connected to the PL instead of the ALDL port, updates 5 times per second.  Bob chose that rate because the eye has a hard time seeing change faster than that.
