Default EBC Configuration Error

I am trying to set up ready to go from MBC to EBC however I am getting a Config error when I turn on Boost Control Settings.

ECU - DIYPNP

ECU Wiring:
PA0 (behind db9) to IN on boost circuit
OUT on boost circuit to pin on db15
set boost control pin in TS to PA0

No matter what I do in the settings I keep getting a config error like this:



Do I have the output port setting wrong or is it something else I have done? If I turn the boost control setting to off the config error problem goes away.....

The PA0 port in the output port settings needs to be disabled.

Thanks Dimitris, that has cured the config problem, but I am not confident that MS is controling the boost solenoid (brought from diyautotune), with everything turned on (open loop, control duty table set to '30' throughout the table to test), if I disconnect the solenoid from the 12v supply and reconnect it should I hear the solenoid kick in? There is no noise whatsoever, is there a way of testing that MS is controling the solenoid?
Cheers

Cancel that, its working. For some reason, the solenoid doesent operrate with just the ignition on (12v supply from small blue connector by diagnostics box) but if I start the car it clicks in.

Measured the voltage at the 12v supply with ignition on and its only reading 11.1v so I assume I have a battery problem and the solenoid only works with 12v?

its 12v on each side with a soke to gnd on the ecu side.
Just throw 100 in all target cells and see if you get more boost then usually, if it works the turbo will spin alot quicker, if it doesn't you will see wastegate, if it doesn't swipe all cells and put 0 in them.
Careful now make sure you have an overboost cut active.

The blue connector works fine for 12v. I use it with my solenoid and EBC circuit

Cheers Bud, its all working now but I have a 12v problem, I have a parasitic battery drain, narrowed it down to the BTN fuse, just checking whats connected to that.....

Where do you find this in TS
"The PA0 port in the output port settings needs to be disabled"
Is it a TS setting the only thing I can find is boot control location i can make that pa0?

K. So then I have not idea why I was getting an error. if you have ebc turned on and no ebc hooked up does that normaly mean no spark cause thats what happened to me or it was the cas which i changed same time as I changed the ebc to no. by the way I never indicated it was yes that was the base tune as I loaded it from diyauto

the error is that on the basemap the boost control is deafulted on and it happens to be selected to a output that's already in operation.

Simply turn boost control function to OFF, or select the proper output that corresponds to what you acutally put it on.

The conflict is that two things are using one output.
