i continue to read that narrow band suxor, but what about a narrow-band autometer afr gauge? i tried setting up the voltages with innovate's software 0=8afr and 1=18afr, gauge reads wrong pretty much all the time. anyone have theirs not running all red(some orange) all the time?

shouldn't that be 1=8 0=18? I used the NB sim out on my techedge and sent it to my homebuilt NB gauge, that worked great. operates on the same principle though, so im not sure why that aint workin. i doubt its the gauge. get a pot and a 1.5v battery and hook it up as a voltage divder and spin the wiper. see if you can get the led's to light up in sequence

would having the gauge ground and the lc1 ground at different places affect stuff too?
bleh thats probably the issue. kinda curious about this pot and battery, do you mean a pot you put on the stove?

i cant stand my NB..its my 02 i guess.
I can get it to go back and forth..only sometimes.
the other times its everywhere, and then it shuts off. (O2 does it) Just get a WB..i shall, someday lol. Ive never read much on what your talking about, I have a little bit. I only trust my stuff at idle at up to a certain boost/rev. They are inaccurate.

Yeah, you've gotta reverse it. I'm running an A/F gauge with my LC-1 simulating a narrowband as well. It won't let you switch the order of the A/F numbers, but it will let you switch the order of the voltage numbers. Switch your 1 and 0 and you should be all set.

He does have a wideband, LC-1 is an innovate wideband controller. What he's trying to do is set one of the analog outputs up to imitate a narrowband with the accuracy of a wideband. It will work if he gets his voltages right as mentioned above ;-)

Short and good ground is very important for accurate signal. The very long cable that Innovate supplies incurs large voltage drop end this gets worse if you just plug it into the cigar lighter. This is voltage drop error due to high hater current. Just measure the voltage drop between the chassis ground and LM-1 ground at LM-1 power entry connector. I made my own power cable using a piece of coaxial cable. This was not for purpose of shielding anything but for providing a good ground by using the shield as power ground for LM-1.

you see, i read 1/2 the posts, then post.
problem eh?
Im just pissed b/c I have nothin accurate to read my mixtures. damn pizza hut
