In my case, I need a way to turn "traction control" ON/OFF with a digital input so it doesn't come into play when doing a burnout or when on the dyno.

This means under: Launch Control RPM Curve/ Launch Speedbase Control besides the Enable/Disable option we need to be able to pick one of the inputs as means of turning the feature On/Off.

Also, when using Anytrim3 for Spark trim based on Speed1-Speed2 should be able able to turn Anytrim3 On/OFF with an input.

I know you can do this by "switching maps" but that's a lot of work. Every time I make a change i need to update both maps, then go back and disable launch control on one of them.

So, any way somebody can get this done?  :D

Ha ha!  :D For me it is... I barely have time to get the car ready for next race between runs... my mind is in a thousand places. I often make changes between runs, if I miss one of the settings it can cost me the race. The less stuff I need to do, the better.
Any cool car has a button to disable traction control for a reason  ;)

I'm also thinking to save the "switch map" feature to help with my idle control.

Does Launch control not already have Input switch for enable? First item in config page....

To request feature add detailed request on the Wiki. http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=GenBoard%2FUnderDevelopment%2FFirmWare

1.2.38 looks like an amazing update/FW!

Makes me very happy to see this kind of progress, if they would round it off with allowing us to send/receive CAN messages so that we can interface w/ stock clusters/dashboards, etc that would be amazing :)

something would happen in near future with that, maybe not the way you expect it :) you can start scanning can bus for ID's and conversions you need :)

managed to use it?

Not yet been quite busy with work... also have to dig up an old Thinkpad and install Linux on it before anything, or install via VM on my current laptop (not sure how nice it and the drivers will play with a VM).
