MAP/BARO calibration

 

MAP sensor offset

Can be used to calibrate the MAP reading to match a known air pressure.

 

BARO sensor offset

Can be used to calibrate the BARO reading to match a known air pressure.

Note: This only applies when the internal MAP-sensor is used.

 

 

Voltage calibration

 

VBAT calibration

Can be used to calibrate the battery voltage readings.

 

AIN temperature compensation

Optional setting that corrects analog input voltages under high ECU temperatures.

Disabled

Enabled (BAT54BRW-TP) diodes (ALL MINIs)

Enabled (NXP diodes)

Enabled (N88/88Y diodes)

Note: There is no need to enable this compensation unless your CPU temperature regularly exceeds 60°C / 140° F. For most installations, the effect is negligible - but under extreme under-hood conditions, enabling this feature improves accuracy and signal stability.

 

To ensure consistent and reliable sensor readings across the full operating range, MaxxECU applies temperature-based voltage compensation for selected analog inputs.

Modern ECUs operate in environments with wide temperature swings: From cold starts to extreme engine bay heat. These conditions can introduce minor, but predictable, temperature-induced shifts in internal reference voltages and analog signal paths.

While these shifts are physically normal in all electronics, MaxxECU’s compensation logic dynamically corrects for them based on the internal CPU temperature, maintaining analog input accuracy even under thermal stress.

This feature does not alter sensor calibration - it simply corrects small voltage drift caused by internal heat, ensuring high precision at all temperatures.

 

Note: Due to hardware variation, it’s not always possible to determine the exact diode type used in your ECU without opening the unit. If you require verified information, please contact MaxxECU support with your ECU’s serial number.

 

 

Trigger input 0V calibration

 

calibrate trigger inputs

Used to calibrate the trigger "zero voltage", available on all units, but mostly used on some MaxxECU MINI when the trigger voltage rest input is not showing 0.0V. Press calibrate button to zero the voltage.
