I hope so. We finally have a batch of new Sequencers in hand and the new hardware on it - a new power supply and a new dual channel VR sensor processing chip - both test out ok on the bench. I was able to start up a Sequencer with normal battery voltage, then turn the volts down from 12V to *** 3V *** and it kept on running. You won't be able to go down this far with a real engine, but that will be because the injectors won't open, not because of the ECU. The VR sensor chip also works, but we won't know how much of an improvement until we test it on many real engines.
So, depending on how well continued testing goes, we should be able to send some to beta testers in a few weeks.
how's the testing? and the VR sensor chip works ok in the test cars?

So far it works on one running engine. Another will be tried probably in the next week or two. It also works on the bench for 2 people. No problems in the design so far. The power supply works great. The battery voltage during cranking can drop to 3 V and the ecu keeps running. although 3 V probably won't open the injectors.
As soon as 1 more engine is running I will look for more testers.

Yes, but its prognosis is looking good at this time; we'll probably be able to discharge it from the hospital soon. There are a number up and running. We've got one ourselves that is going to be installed on a Nippondenso DIS system, one that's been known for noise issues. Figure it'll give the MAX9926 circuit a good workout.

I've been running 100% for about 30 days now (V1.04)

Now running 3.610
I'll let Al explain the differences but it is much easier to set up and it runs very very well.
I'm impressed with the performance of the sequencer.

X-Tau turned on. Seems to work ok but maybe a little too much X in some places.
Very smooth.

I continue to daily drive the unit. Runs very well.
Note sure when more will be available.
