    Nanocom evo - instrument pack

    Hi, does anyone have experience using the evo's coolant temperature warning feature. I tried setting it up yesterday when driving in sand with the alarm set to trip at 95 degrees,(just to see if it worked). The temp got up to 97 and no alarm went off.

    Anybody else used this feature of the NC evo.
    Most of the time my NC is used for fault finding and servicing. Just thought this might be a handy tool when driving the truck in hard going.

    Mine works fine, it was initially set at 95 and I took a while to work out what was going on as I didn't realise it existed. It's now set at 100 as it was sounding on long hills at 97. It's probably a bit high, but the computer controlled main temperature gauge doesn't move at 97.

    Ok. So there are no other settings, other than the value itself and then drive.
    Do you have a setting to turn it on.

    Based on the quick look I've had at mine this arvo it's always on. Perhaps a value of '0' might disable it?

    Yep. Reakon this is one of the features on the evo that is off regardless of the settings. Drove around today with it set at 50 and no alarms went off. Not even a chirp.

    The other thing that happens if you play with the temp setting is it will crash after changing the temp with the engine running.

    Oh well. Good job most of the other bits work. hang on, no error codes loggEd on the landie today. That can't be right .........

    I'd love to know why yours works Greg and there are others, including mine, that don't.

    I can't think of any other settings that are able to be adjusted with the Nanocom that could assist either.

    I'm unsure if Colin is watching this thread - if he is maybe he can pass the issue onto his technical team for some investigation? I'll probably send them a link to this thread in the coming week and log it as a job anyway as it would be quite useful to know that it is functioning (until I can convince the wife the Disco needs the new EMS2...).

    I probably should correct my initial comment and it's been a while since its activated. It doesn't actually sound, all that happens is in instrument mode all readings are replaced by a screen with a big red cross. At first I thought the device was faulty but then realised it was overtemperature.
    I'll have a play and get back.
