Hello All :)

Hello All,

I am Sadanand (Sad + Anand = my login name) and i am 27 years of age. By profession, I develop Engine Management software for diesel trucks. I have been accessing this community since almost an year, and i finally decided to login as a new member. I find this community very informative,
and most importantly this is the most active automotive community I have ever come across.

I access this site so often for information, that i know a few login names very well, like GTO, Jaggu, KHAN_SULTAN, V-16, Rudrasen, Samurai...hopefully i will meet some of you some day soon.

I am more interested into off-roading, vintage restorations and technical discussion. Much of the off-roading intrest comes from my friend "star_aqua", who often forwards the new link to new OTRs attended by him...

Nice to be a part of such an active automotive community..
I wish to learn and contribute more to this comunicty.

Welcome Sad

would have liked a more cheerful name though man.

Anyways welcome to the team man. The off roading guys are a different class of their own and I also dream of joining them sometime. Wish you a great time here. Cheers

Welcome to the team man,
you show us that being sad and happy at the same time is possible (:-))
or they are two sides of same coin.

Welcome to TBHP.

Dont implement what you read here about error codes and design at your work place :P

Thanks black12rr, Thanks jkds,
Unfortunately, we don't get to test our code on the trucks :-(. If we are allowed to test them on vehicles, you will witness all sorts of misadventures on Bangalore roads. We test it on vehicle simulators.

Interesting. Could you please share more details.
How you do it ?
Is it like c/c++ ? or do you have some proprietary tools/language ?

How do you test the "code" ? -- EDIT : Just saw that last post. I got the answer for this.
Is the same (I mean the basic "funda") used in other diesel engines (read : the new generation CRDI engines)

sad:) · 27th August 2009, 23:17

Yes, Basically it is C programming, flashed over the controller in the ECU.
And Yes, the funda is to control the engines by controlling the fuel as desired. And not all diesel engines are CRDI.
