Sophia J-850 ECUs settings
I reset the ecu to its base menu by holding down the menu button for about 2 minutes,
all three lights were flashing together.
I found out afterwards it deleted many of the menus that were accessable and adjustable.
peristalic pump menu... cool down menu...etc.
I wrote them down before I did this rather stupid thing:
this is what I had on it :
min rpm ---53000
max rpm-- 130000
temp------celsius
Battery 7 cells
low battery --enabled

low fuel limit --250

RE: Sophia J-850 ECUs settings
Thanks for the help Mick, sorry no change or original or addition menus appeared.
jettronics v.2.0 may not have had a way to recover the original programs.
peristalic pump menu still missing,
cool down menus
I think Ive collected enougn info and settings to try running it again.
to bad DR Hoya did not just toss an electric starter on the front...
these engines were years ahead of jetcat at the time.

Hi JOhn!
Try to contact Horst Lenerz. He and MArkus Zipperer developed the Sophia ECU. You can find him on www.jet-tronics.de

RE: Sophia J-850 ECUs settings
I will try this also, Thanks in advance....
I have never ever seen the "Boss" menu ,
so this will be a new and good development if I can get there.
There is very little info out there on these engines.
Lets help get the rest of those door stops up and running....

RE: Sophia J-850 ECUs settings
Already emailed jet-tronics..de,
waiting reply,
no answer yet....out flying.
No rush, its fun to tinker and collect info,
only some of this info was out on RCU before.
The more info, the fewer door stops there will be.

RE: Sophia J-850 ECUs settings
John,
Instead of going back and re-typing everything, I will just put my parameters highlighted in red that differ from your settings beside the ones you have already given. Mind you, these are the original settings as it came delivered to me from the dealer (Planes Plus) 7 years ago. The engine has never been run by me( 13 minutes factory time only) and none of the settings have been changed that I'm aware of. The parameters given are for comparison purpose only.
When you power up by just switching on the receiver, make sure the display shows 21/22 Celsius. This is about normal room temp. If not, you will need to re-calibrate.
