1. load cell is calculated from RPM and Map data and the new log data is averaged with to the previously recorded data for that particular load cell Because of the accuracy of the UTEC Logging and the environmental differences that constantly change this averaging of the logged data is meant to give a more real world and accurate interpretation of the log session The more times a load cell is logged the more accurate the data should become since it is averaged from more logged values 4 Color Shading Each load cell of the Log Map is color shaded differently for each data type to make reading and interpreting the Log Map data easier While the Log Map is really a 2 dimensional table of values the shading brightness and color values of the individual cells allows the vehicle tuner to visualize more than just the data values contained in the load cell 4a Cell Brightness A cells brightness value is determined by the number of Hits for a particular Log Map cell A value with a 0 Hit Count one that doesn t contain any data has no brightness value and is colored black The more times a particular load cell is hit it s brightness value is raised accordingly There five 6 steps of brightness levels that a cell can be assigned including black based on the cells hit count A load cell s brightness will be considered at 10096 when that load cell has at least 6 hits Below is a breakdown of the number of hits for the brightness2. officers employees affiliates contractors subsidiaries or parent organizations be liable for any incidental consequential punitive or any other damages whatsoever relating to the use of SOFTWARE PRODUCT In addition in no event does Mussetter Programming Services authorize you to use this SOFTWARE PRODUCT in applications or systems where SOFTWARE PRODUCT s failure to perform can reasonably be expected to result in a physical injury or in loss of life Any such use by you is entirely at your own risk and you agree to hold Mussetter Programming Services harmless from any claims or losses relating to such unauthorized use This Agreement constitutes the entire statement of the Agreement between the parties on the subject matter and merges and supersedes all other or prior understandings purchase orders agreements and arrangements This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of US OR STATE Mussetter Programming Services the owner of the copyright of this SOFTWARE PRODUCT all of its derivatives title and accompanying materials are the exclusive property of Mussetter Programming Services All rights of any kind which are not expressly granted in this License are 17 MPS UTECLogger v3 0 Copyright 2007 By Jason Mussetter All Rights Reserved entirely and exclusively reserved to and by Mussetter Programming Services You may not rent lease transfer modify translate reverse engineer de compile disassemble or create deri
