Q&A Forum
Its great to see the Constant Updates and Bug Fixes ! Other systems would make you wait months or charge you for fixing their issues.
Folks, disappearing gauges fixed: https://yourdyno.com/YourDynoInstaller_3.3.54.exe
Thanks again. I also updated the link here for those who need an offline firmware update https://yourdyno.com/downloads
Folks, thanks for the feedback about the disappearing group gauges. I reproduced the issue; it happens when you start YourDyno with the blue box disconnected. I will fix right away!
Hi Jostein
I'm very much looking forward to utilising some of the new features on this release. Particularly the output feature to control cooling fans on a vfd linked to roller speed.
I've updated my software and updated the firmware successfully however immediately it returns the message "Staus: Update firmware "
I had to use the firmware downloaded from the link on the download page because I don't have Internet access at my unit where my dyno is located.
I've updated to version 1.28 but it says that version 1.29 is required
Regards
Mark
On a more important note, I don't seem to be able to edit and/or delete a group of gauges that I created to test the feature.
However, when I closed the run screen and reopened it, the new gauge was gone. Other settings I changed also reverted to default.
Yes, I noticed this problem also when I experimented with gauge groups.

Thank you very much for the update, being able to rescale gauges is fantastic, screen space can be used much better. It would be nice to be able to add the option to save gauge configuration, to be able to load different templates as needed, for example i use different standalone ECUs with a lot of information sent by canbus to yourdyno, and every time i work with diferent ecu, i have to deactivate/activate and organize gauges again.
A small error that I have found is that the company image in the printing templates does not work.
Thank you very much again for all the improvements!
Something VERY minor, but just thought I'd point it out...
Looks like there's a spelling mistake on the gauge setup page. I'm pretty sure you meant "Alarms" not "Aarms", in the Note about "Aarms being off when RPM = 0"
That's a great update, thanks Jostein.
I particularly like the ability to configure the analog output functions.
My blue box has an unused digital output terminal and I have never seen any mention of what this is used for?
It would be great to use this is a similar way to switch a fan relay, activated by a temp. input or keystroke etc.
Folks, 3.3.51 is released. A small update to take care of a bug in the sequencer and MOI wizard. Better German translation is added too.

@boz-race-engines, Yes, all blue boxes. You must upgrade the firmware by clicking the Upgrade to latest button.
Hi is this download suitable for all yourdyno models? cheers
All right, folks!
The new YourDyno software version is finally available, version 3.3.50. It is a big release with lots of new features and improvements, so make sure to do the upgrade when you have some quiet time without customers hanging over your shoulder. Check out the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9DweL6MdTE
Changes:
- Support for different output types, including throttle and other controls
- Improved setup for brake settings, with quick selection of default settings for different brake control types
- Support for Sequencer. A sequencer is a table with time, target RPM, throttle and other channels that you can play back. You can define it manually, or let your ECU record a lap of a circuit and import this into the sequencer
- Lots of new features on the gauges:
- Support for Bar gauges, both horizontal and vertical
- Support for Group gauges, where a group of channels can be combined into one gauge. An example would be 8 of EGTs, 2 or 4 brake values, 8 Lambdas, etc.
- More options on the gauge colors. Now you can set the background, foreground and indicator colors, to easily differentiate between the gauges
- Support for different aspect ratios of gauges (tall or wide, not just square). This is nice in particular for Digital gauges and Bar gauges
- Better alignment between the gauges
- Support for alarms. Gauges will blink so an alarm condition is very easy to see
- Support for Brake during retardation. This is a good feature for dynos with a lot of inertia, to speed up the retardation phase
- CAN bus outputs are now enabled
- New brake mode: Brake vs RPM. You can define a brake curve vs RPM. This is a "simple" brake mode, but very good when the dyno has a bit of inertia. The brake will slow down the acceleration and make for a very natural sweep
- A number of small bug fixes and improvements
You MUST download new firmware to use this new software. Some USB extender cables must be removed during the firmware upgrade, so try direct connection if the upgrade fails.
As always, any issues, let me know!
@matteozanusso, thanks if you can send your options file to me and I can try to reproduce that crash. Go to this folder location:
%localappdata%\Fonneland_Engineering_AS then navigate to 3.3.40 and send me (jostein@yourdyno.com) the file called options.config.
The Manual mode is different now. The brake can now be ramped up towards the Manual RPM set point. Once it reaches the RPM set point, the PID regulation starts automatically. If you click Manual start then it records data, but even before then regulation is active. The ramp up is very useful so the engine is nicely loaded by the time you reach the RPM set point. Earlier it tended to overshoot since the engine was unloaded until the start RPM, even if you turned the brake on manually.
