tuning q for 730 ecm

[timsiford at hushmail.com]

Dave,

I should probably make myself more clear when I say something.  Let me try 
this again...

I found the necessary parameter in the ANHT_HAC.PDF which I believed to 
control the mandatory lockup of the TC.  I submitted this info the GMECM 
mailing list and everyone who did respond to my posts was only in agreement 
that the address that I was referring to looked to be the address that I 
would need to change.  I added this parameter to my TC definition file (because,
 as you said, you can modify the TC definition files).  TunerCat was in 
the process of releasing a new TDF for the 8D so I asked him if he could 
do 4 things....
1) Add EPROM ID
2) Add Knock attack rate
3) Add knock decay rate
4) add mandatory TC lockup

I had added all 4 of these to my TDF.  The EPROM ID was not working due 
to a bug in TC where he wiped the EPROM ID on every save of the bin.  The 
knock attack and decay rates looked to be working aok.  The TC lockup appearend 
not to be working but more testing was still needed.  

I asked TC to add the above parameters ... I didn't tell him exactly how 
to do it.  My reference to the address was -my- reference that I used for 
creating my TDF for testing purposes.
