Quad Pulse Questions

A few question to other running Quad's Adr & Pulse. I'm probably on an older version, and need to update my software, but wanted to know if others have seen or not seen some usual values.
IAT Mine reads -40 all the time.
%Load mine will not go over 72-73%
Lossing Power settings. Every few weeks it will lose its power settings.. It might go a month.. then do it 3 times in one day.. And it defaults to level 10.. Tonight it did it and I got P1688 & P1689... probably by chance..
Drove 500 miles, shut it off.. 5 mins later.. started.. back up the trailer.. shut down.. unhooked the trailer.. cranked.. cranked.. nodda.. (Not blaming the box.. it was probably time... I have a spare.. haha..)

Bryan,
The -40 IAT is because the IAT is not active on your tune.... or older Pulse SW. Need at least v1.2.8 to read IAT, I believe, but just do the v1.3.2 and be done with it. Download a newer version and you should get it.
Sidenote: I plumbed Quad's EGT into turbo cool air outlet (pre CAC) and comparing it to IAT under different conditions is interesting.

Load has me confused. Does not seem to reflect what feels like 'load'?? Haven't paid attention to it at full throttle so not sure how high it goes. Will check it.

I believe losing the power settings is also curable with an updated tune reflash....... but if not, it's in your box and should be sent back.

I was well loaded, but I was running on level one.

I'll get the software updated after I get the VP changed tomorrow.

I ran the control pod a few months while I was getting the Pulse updated, and I had no problems with the POD. I thought everything was fixed, when I went to the production box and harness.
I really don't mind that it goes back to a default setting, I just wish it go to level 0 instead of 10. The big issue is when it comes out of warm up, and it goes to level 10.. There is no way to know what level its going to go to.. but it might not do it for a month.
Thanks RJ..

Bryan
