Hello. I have a weird issue. My car will only start when I connect my laptop to the PDM15. When the laptop is not connected I can hear the start seloniod click but it doesn’t crank. Is there a configuration update I can make to correct this?

First, I dont know if this is the right spot, but these new forums are impossible to browse.

I just updated my PDM15 to 1.1.6 and man what a disaster that was. It deleted all my configurations, which whatever ill resend it.

Well resending it, while works, causing the connection to freeze (the send button keeps "loading" and the tx/rx bits freeze in connection info). So after fighting that for 15 min come to find out it actually is sending the config still.

Then come to find out it deletes all the CAN configs from the PDM, so even though the saved config had all my outputs setup based on CAN inputs, all those were now undefined. So had to reload can config files, and then go into all my outputs and reconfigure the function to repoint to the correct CAN input.

Maybe i missed a note somewhere saying the…

Hi,

I am documenting my wiring and after reading and taking some notes I found that some outputs (24 and 25) are duplicated.

What is the correct pinout?

Thanks,

Hi,

I have one of the Blink Marine keypads and the PDM28. I am looking for a way to use a single button to turn on ACC, IGN, start the engine and turn everything off. I'm trying to mimic a normal car's push button start.

I've thought about using the different states of the keypad button-state 1 is ACC and state 2 is IGN. The problem will come with state 3 which would be to engage the starter. There is no logic I can see where I can put conditions in for the different states. I would only want the button to go to state 3 if the brake was pressed, no RPM and the gear is park or neutral.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Thanks

Afternoon, I currently have a output not working on my pdm 28 when it should. i have confirmed the output is active in the program and checked the voltage at the pin with no voltage.

send me a email address and I'll send my file to you

Thanks for you time

Thank you Andrew Curtis

I have a pdm 25+ and 2 blink marine keypads. i have one of the buttons on the keypad dedicated to the fault state. i understand how to set the other buttons to trip the red indicator if there is a fault state

What im wondering is if there is any way to trip the fault state button with things that are activated without a keypad button... such as if something is activated from when the pdm is powered on such as "True and True" if there is a fault with that circuit, is there a way to have the keypad fault state indicate it.

Thanks!

We have a PDM 25 linked via Canbus to Fueltech FT550 & BM 12 button keypad. All new install. Task is to turn over engine to build up Oil Pressure. No fuel pump etc enabled.

A keypad button has been allocated as a Start/Stop button set to Momentary.

The output has been set to CAN Keypad 1 Button 7 (Start_Stop) State Equals True.

When you press the button it starts to turn over the engine but restarts the keypad and ECU. Any advise to why it is doing this.

Many thanks.
