help with 3bar calabration
Ive tried the formula but i cant figure it out. this is for a Motorola 3bar here is the data sheet can anyone tell me the calibrations for my s300?
http://www.freescale.com/files...A.pdf
its the MPXH6300 for future searchs
i posted this on teh hondata forum im getting no love so can anyone calulate this for me so i can it.

i cant make any sense out of this

Here is how to calculate the scalar and offset for a MAP sensor.
1. Find the minimum and maximum voltage and absolute pressures.
2. Convert the pressures to mbar.
3. Subtract the minimum and maximum voltages to find the range, then do the same for the pressures.
4. Divide the pressure range by the voltage range to calculate the scalar.
5. Multiply the minimum voltage by the scalar to calculate the offset. Note that a positive voltage gives a negative offset.
Example for a 3.5 bar MAP sensor:
1. For a 3.5 bar data sheet:
0.5V @ 0 kPa (absolute)
4.5V @ 345 kPa (absolute)
2. 345 kPa = 3450 mbar.
3. Voltage range = 4.0V, pressure range = 3450 mbar.
4. 3450 / 4.0 = 862.5 = scalar
5. 862.5 x 0.5 x -1 = -431.25 = offset
So scalar = 862, offset = -431
Plug in the minimum and maximum voltages to check your work:
0.5V x 862.5 - 431.25 = 0 mbar @ 0.5v
4.5V x 862.5 - 431.25 = 3450 mbar @ 0.5v
If you have trouble then draw a graph and extrapolate the lines until they cross the pressure axis.</TD></TR></TABLE>

It will be close, but likely they don't use that exact sensor element. As long as you check your partial-load cells (vacuum) and retune if needed, it will be fine.
But to do it according to that formula, you take the datasheet's numbers:
0.3v @ 20kPa (200mbar), 4.6v @ 304 kPa (3040mbar)
4.6v - 0.3v = 4.3v range
3040 - 200 = 2840 mbar range
2840 / 4.3v = ~660.45 scalar
0.3v * 660.45 scalar * -1 = -198 offset
But to do it according to that formula, you take the datasheet's numbers:

i don't believe it. thats coming form the same people that said you cant run dsm injectors

They posted that years and years ago. Anyways, I have not worked with a motorola 3bar but I know the MSD 3 bars will not work properly even when I calculated the proper values. I always use the MoTeC 3 bar map sensors with the s300 units.

200 mbar is ~24" HG - the only time you'll see that is when you decel from moderate-high rpm with zero throttle, and at that point, the ecu is already cutting the injectors. Idle shouldn't be below that under normal circumstances. The other motorola sensors supposedly don't read below that, and they work fine.
