ECU Connections.

EVO4 can acquire data from all the ECU published on the list on our website:
http://www.aim-sportline.com/pages/download/section_documentation_ecus.htm
This list includes about 500 different protocols and is constantly being updated, since all the
ECUs are often improved and new models appear. When possible, we have explain how to con-
figure your ECU to ensure compatibility between the data flow transmitted and what the pro-
tocol is designed to manage.

From the hardware point of view, EVO4 is compatible with all currently available connections:
CAN, RS232 or line K. If you need a CAN or RS232 connection, you must connect the cable to
the connector labeled "ECU"; if you have to use the OBDII K Line, please use the connector la-
beled "rpm / K".

n 2. Please read the documentation about

your ECU in www.aim-sportline.com, and

identify the name of the proper software

driver.

n 3. Configure EVO4 setting that software

driver in RaceStudio2. (1)

n 4. Select the channels to be recorded.

n 5. Send the configuration to EVO4. (2)

The steps to manage the data coming from the ECU are:

n 1. Determine which hardware connection is available for your ECU.

If your ECU transmits the data to CAN or RS232, you need to connect the cable 04.563.01
(Shown below left) to the connector labeled ECU.
If it is equipped with a K line, you must use the cable 04.563.05 (shown below right) and
connect to the connector labeled "rpm / K".

Please refer to drawings listed in the appendix for further information regarding these cables.
