(Depreciated) [TBS] 7 Speed Transmission

Description
This is an automatic gear Microcontroller. It has an 11 Speed System built for use with 5 gear boxes.




*** Update: 20.Aug.20 ***
- Fixed an error that caused the brake lights to light when engine was off
- Fixed an error that caused the engine to stall when transitioning from reverse to forward

In order to apply the update on old chips:
1) Open your Vehicle
2) Select the Microcontroler on your Vehicle
3) Select "Edit Microcontroler"
4) Confirm Warning Message
5) Load Microprocessor (top bar)
6) Select the Microcontroller
7) Click "Update", next to "Back"
8) Save your Vehicle



Setup:
- Your Gearbox may be set in Overdrive or Underdrive, just make sure that the Ratio Step is in order. Underdrive = arrow facing AWAY from engine, Overdrive = arrow facing TOWARDS the engine.

- Set your Gearbox so that it always outputs a lower RPS when off and a higher RPS when on (i.e Underdrive 3:2 -- 1:1, Overdrive 1:1 -- 9:5).

- Gearbox 1 Ratio must be 1 step appart (i.e 6:5 -- 1:1)
- Gearbox 2 Ratio must be 2 steps appart (i.e 3:2 -- 1:1)
- Gearbox 3 Ratio must be 3 steps appart (i.e 9:5 -- 1:1)
- Gearbox 4 Ratio must be 4 steps appart (i.e 2:1 -- 1:1)
- Gearbox Reverse must be 1:1 -- 1:-1 (note: I reccomend 2:1 -- 1:-1 as Overdrive)

Use the following Table to count your steps. The order is from up to down. (3:1 Underdrive is lowest RPS)
3:1 Underdrive
5:2
2:1
9:5
3:2
6:5
1:1
6:5 Overdrive
3:2
9:5
2:1
5:2
3:1


Size:
- 3x6


Inputs:
- Composite (Seat Input for W/S as throttle)
- Key Switch (or other Toggle Button, NOT Push Button!)
- Engine RPS
- Speed (PLEASE set you Sensor to "DIRECTIONAL", so many people forget that!!!!!)
- Fuel (read on composite instrument panel Ch. 7)
- Engine Temperature (read on composite instrument panel Ch. 9=


Outputs:
- Composite (Read Ch. 5 + 6 Number for Gear, idealy 7-segment instrument panel)
- Gear Box 1
- Gear Box 2
- Gear Box 3
- Gear Box Reverse (doubles as reverse light)
- Parking Brake (Applies when Key Switch is turned off. The engine turns off)
- Variable Brakes (Applies either on exiting the seat or on throttle input against your current driving direction. Note: This also applies when slipping backwards when driving up a hill! The engine will idle.)
- Brake Lights (Applies when Variable Brake is active)
- Engine On (sends a time limited signal to the engine, can be adjusted with slider)
- Engine Throttle
- Clutch
- Speed (for Dials - Alternatively use composite instrument panel Ch. 8)


Additional Informations:
- The Controler has several input sliders to adjust for desired engine performance. You may change settings as: Maximum RPS, Idle RPS, Time to reverse, Shift up RPS and Shift Down RPS.
- For Shift Up-Down RPS setting, I reccomend to keep the values 4 steps appart (i.e min 8, max 12).
- It is reccomended to have Maximum RPS as high as possible and Shift up RPS as low as possible. This gives you best efficiency and allowes for some extra speed on 11th gear.
- For realism, in reverse, the gears are limited from 1st to 2nd gear. If you want to adjust that, look for an up-down block near the Gear Outputs that is clamped from 1-2. You may clamp it up to 11.
