Just wondering if any one has used this system on a Vane 4000 eddy brake dyno?

Looking to upgrade my one.
Eddy brake is controlled with 0-50v to transformer which then steps it up to 0-196v.
Load is read by a PT ls 500 load cell.
Speed is from a single tooth reluctor. (easy enough to change)

And is there anyway to display power in KW instead of HP.

Hi,

Do you know how your brake power supply is controlled, i.e. 0-5V for example?

There is no option to show kw instead of HP. I have had 1 other request for that, so it is in the queue, but not super high priority at the moment.

Yup just tested out of back of computer on it. 0v - 5v for 0% load to 100% brake load.

OK, so the brake can be controlled directly from YourDyno. You can likely reuse the load cell, but need an rpm sensor. That's it!

5.2% lower reading then old dyno software.
Is there anyway you can get rid of the trailing tail on the dyno graph?

Nice! I see you got rid of the tail, it's just about stopping the logging at the end, manually or automatic.
