boost controller for specific VNT turbos. The system is not intended for on road use. Be advised that the
system will produce changes in the drivability of your vehicle. If installed, setup or used incorrectly, your
engine and transmission can get permanently damaged, or worse. This product comes with no warranties or
guarantees of any kind. Both installation and use of this system in any vehicle is done at the risk of the owner
/ operator of the vehicle.
This document provides an overview of how this system has been used in the past, however installation of
the system of your specific application is your full responsibility and might be different from what is
described in this document. All references made refer to the latest firmware for the gen 3 controllers.
The developer of this system cannot be held responsible for any loss; damages or injury caused either directly
or indirectly by the installation or use of this system.
2. Installation of the system
2.1 Identifying the controller components
The standard kit contains:

• The main control unit
• The controller management 2,4" OLED display, that works as both Gear Indicator and for
navigating the menus.
• joystick to navigate the menu
• cabling and plug to connect the gearbox, gear lever, TPS and paddle shifters (if available).
Main control unit Controller management display and joystick, joystick

can be broken off to have it somewhere else
Gen 3 Kit width OLED display Gen 2 kit 4 line text display
Optional Accessories
1” Gear Indicator EGP & Boost sensor Boost sensor
Ol
The pressure sensors are professional type supplied by www.Mouser.com. A gel coating protects them
from harsh environments and they measure max 3 bar boost/EGP over environmental pressure.
2.2 External Parts needed

TPS Sensor
The Mercedes TPS Sensor from model W210, year 1997 – 2002, will function for this kit.
All kit has plug included on the wiring harness
MB A0125423317 (Deutch Gassteller Pedalwertgeber) (Englisch TPS)
W210 TPS Sensor
Gear Lever and plug

The right gear lever has a first gear selection identifiable by the “1” as gear choice. Furthermore, the
plug needs to be a 10 pin plug that have 8 wire out.
W202/R129 gear lever W210 gear lever 10 pin connector

These levers can be typically found in W202, R129 (2022670637)or W210 (A2022670137), Note
that a W210 gear lever is longer and higher then the W202 and R129 version. It is the short versions
that fit the W124 and pre-2001 G class W463. Be aware that the gear lever for a Right Hand Drive
(RHD) car works just as well as a LHD gear lever, however it is mirrored compared to the LHD
ones. Part number above is for LHD
722.6 Gearbox
Q: Can I find any 722.6 on the yard and it will work?

A: As far as I have seen, any 722.6 is OK. The usual problem is that it jumps a little up in RPM between
3-4
Q: What gearbox is the best for high power project. 600 Nm or more?
A: W5A580 AMG box is one of the strongest.
Q: What Year is the best?

A: As new as possible they have only got better and better.
Q: if I find a W5A580 AMG box, is it then just mount and go?

A: Get it as new and low mileage as possible
Q: What is the best to do if i want the best of the best?

A: Have the gearbox overhauled and have everything gone through; seals in valve body and clutches
and have their clearance tightened up beyond Mercedes specs. The best thing to do is to set them up to have about as
tight a clearance as possible but not too tight so that they burn from drag.
Q: But can I use an old worn out box if i just want 5th gear and lockup not for racing?
A: Everybody’s requirements are different, but if you let’s say run it in manual mode and let off the
throttle at every shift, then yes, it is possible, also in automatic mode if it is cruising not racing.
Q: My box was working perfectly in the donor car and now it is slipping between 3rd and 4th gear.
A: You have to remember that the transmission had torque management, meaning the donar car was
limiting power during shift. Because of this, you will never see the state the gearbox really is in, as the clutches get
worn out Mercedes adjusts for that by letting the shift take longer, meaning removing momentum from the engine for a
longer time.
Q: Can a Normal 722.6 from a standard E300 turbodiesel hold a momentum of 600 Nm?
A: Yes it can hold that but shifting under max power is a different case, from my experience the 1->2 is
fine and also the 2->3 and 4->5 but we are on the limit here.
Q: The W5A580 does not fit the OM606 what do I do?

A: Get the Converter and bellhousing from 722.6 which was originally mounted on OM606 (Diesel
Engine 24V)
Q: I have an OM606 and I dont want to mess with the bellhousing what should I look for?
A: Find a gearbox from a E270 CDI as new as possible, they are built to high momentum. (Any 722.6
from an inline engine should fit, only the one from 320CDI does not fit, has different bell housing)
What I am trying to say is that you should get the gearbox adjusted and looked after before installing if you want a
system that is working perfectly.
If you can live with a little slipping when shifting under load, then try to install what you have but that is totally up to
you.
If you want to get the most out of this controller

You should get an overhauled gearbox, if not you run the risk of getting the engine RPM jumping up during
shifts, I have seen this myself, and heard it from others but i have only seen it happen between 3rd and 4th
gears. I have not seen this problem on any other shifts.
If you want to shift gear under 100% load I am just preparing you that you can see a jump in RPM between
3rd and 4th gears.
There are two gearing versions of the 722.6. The controller is compatible width both.

2.3 Installing the controller
1. Gearbox: Connect the large, round, multi-pin plug directly to the gearbox
2. Gear lever: Connect the rectangular gear level plug to the gear lever
3. TPS: Connect the TPS sensor plug to the TPS sensor
4. Connecting Power
• Black to ground makes sure you have a good connection.
• Red to a 12V supply that becomes live when the ignition is switched on. Use an 8 Amp fuse
on this wire.
Example of Gen 2 kit connected
Boost solenoid / EGP sensor / boost sensor. Only needed if used as boost
controller
Controller pin-out diagram
Connecting the TPS sensor
The W210 TPS sensor has a plug with 6 wires. If you take the plug out you can read on the plug pin
1,2,3,4,5,6.
MB TPS Sensor plug
• Pin 1 needs to be connected to 5V,

• Pin 6 needs to be connected to 0V,
• Pin 5 needs to be connected to TPS input,
• Other pins are not connected.
TPS sensor can be mounted anywhere, here is an example where it is put under the pump, but all
that is importend is that is is moved together with throttle.
TPS sensor Mounted on an OM606 in a G Class, Mechanical pump

Connecting the controller for gearbox control
Connecting the Gear Lever Connection 10 PIN MB plug to 14 Controller plug alle
controllers is delivers with cabling harness, Meaning this is just to info
Connecting the 24 Pin Gearbox Plug to the controller plug, Latest controllers has
only white wires that has numbers on them, this is just for info.
Connecting Tiptronic (Optional) or paddle shift
I can NOT talk to the Tiptronic shifter, if you want to use that, it is fine but you then have no switch
for W/S but that can be any switch.
And I can only tell from the gearbox if you are in P/N od R/D but that is fine but the function width
hold in 4, 3 2, 1, and so on are not working.
If you want to use +/- You have to add some micro switch to switch to ground when you press + or
- and then connect to PADDLE input, that’s it.
Connecting Reverse Ligth (Those 2 pin it shorted when i R for Reverse Ligth)
Connecting Starter Lockout (Optional)
“Boost Control” -> “General Boost” -> “USE PWM - AUX-2”
If set to “2” then the AUX-2 works as a Starter Lockout, it pulls the output to ground when in P or N
This can drive a relay, witch has 12 Volt on the other side of the coil. (from version 113)
I know it does not make sence this function is hidden in the Boost menu, but as we steal a AUX output from
there, thats why.
The starter lockout will work no matter if you don't have the Mercedes Gear Lever or running without a Gear
Lever.
You cannot use AUX-2 to other things at the same time.
Connecting the controller for boost control
If you want to use the build in Boost controller, then connect solenoid as below
Vacuum actuator for vacuum actuated turbos
If you have a Vacuum actuated turbo where you want to use the built in boost Controller you should
have one of these.
This is a vacuum valve meaning if it has 100% PWM, there are max vacuum = Wastegate closed, if
0% PWM no vacuum = Wastegate open.
The part is used in Many Mercedes cars from 1997 to 2000 both for boost control and EGR,
It is connected to the two pins marked in red, it does not matter how they are connected as it is a
solonoid,
Connecting the boost and EGP sensor
MERCEDES W210 E300 Turbo Diesel Boost Sensor If you need max 1,65 bar = 25 PSI
Then the originally MB boost sensor from a W210 E300 Turbodiesel can be used as it has a standard
0-5 volt output
I have only tested this exact type below
“Boost Control” -> “General Boost” -> "0 point boost" set it to 305 if this Mercedes sensor is
used
“Boost Control” -> “General Boost” -> "Max boost at 5v" set it to 170 if this Mercedes sensor is
used
1. Boost sensor: Connect the boost sensor to the intake manifold,
2.4 Initial Quick Setup
The below steps will allow you to control the gearbox, but it is NOT adequate to make it shift
properly. For proper working of the controller, a detailed setup is required for your car (weight,
power, gear ratios) and your driving style by adjusting and fine-tuning all the options provided.
Caibrate the TPS

Now before starting the engine, you have to calibrate the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor).
This process teaches the controller about the signal it can expect to receive from the TPS when the throttle
pedal is both fully depressed and when it is not depressed at all.
Put the “W/S” switch into the W position (if you have the Mercedes Gear Lever)[if !supportAnnotations][A1][endif] ,
1. Turn on the ignition so that the controller is powered up, but do NOT start the engine.
2. Press the joystick down until “SETUP” is shown on the display
3. Press the joystick right, to enter this menu
4. Now that you are in the SETUP menu, Press the joystick down until "Setup TPS " is displayed.
5. Press Joystick right, to enter this menu.
6. Now with 0% TPS (throttle pedal not depressed) press the joystick UP
7. Then press the throttle pedal fully (100% TPS) and press the joystick DOWN
8. Put the “W/S” switch into the S position, and repeat steps 1-8. (Only if you have a W/S switch,
otherwise you are done)
Setup the Gear Lever

Put the “W/S” switch into the W position (if you have the Mercedes Gear Lever).
2. Press the joystick down until “SETUP” is shown on the display.
4. Now you are in the SETUP menu, press the joystick down until "Lever Setup" is displayed.
5. Press Joystick Right, to enter this menu
6. If you have the 10 pin plug in the Gear Lever PRND4321. Press Joystick UP or Down to get “0”
i. If you have no plug for Gear Lever set to “1” (and ignore step 9, unles you have mounted a switch
for switch W/S)
7. Press Joystick Right to save
Define the Load

For turbocharged diesel engines with a boost sensor, the torque of the engine is calculated as a combination
of TPS and boost. This means if a diesel engine with a peak torque of 750Nm has 250 Nm with no boost, and
100% TPS, the engine is at around 33% torque. When the turbo kicks in and boost pressure is at 2 bars, we
then get the remaining 66% torque and peak output of 750 Nm. For a Gasoline car it is different here we only
use TPS, 100% TPS is 100% torque.
“Setup Parameter” -> “Load - TPS Boost”

Diesel cars where boost sensor is mounted set it to 2.5
Gasoline cars 3L (6 cyl) set it to 1.5
Gasoline cars 5L (V8) or more set it to 1
When the number is changed it is saved automatically, no need to press right to save this setting.
“Setup Parameter” -> “Boost Part Load”

Diesel cars where boost sensor is mounted set it to 33
Gasoline cars 6 cyl set it to 1
Gasoline cars V8 or more set it to 1
Here you do have to press right to save after the number is changed to the desired value
Setup the how to define RPM and Speed
External Speed
The best situation is to have the controller connected to an EXTERNAL SPEED SENSOR.
But as many of the old cars do not have one, the controller can work with the speed sensors internal to the
gearbox.
"Use int speed/Rpm" (to decide if you are going to use an External speed sensor or not)
In software versions > 157 there are two separate menus. One for “Speed EXT/INT” and another for “RPM
EXT/INT”
PUT the “W/S” switch in the W position
1. Turn on the ignition, but do NOT start engine.
4. Now that you are in the SETUP menu, Press the joystick down until "Use int speed/Rpm" is
displayed.
6. Press the joystick up or down to select “0, 1 or 2” as per the list below.
0 External Speed and RPM sensors are connected
1 External RPM sensor is connected and internal speed sensor is to be used
2 No external sensors are connected and both Km/h and Engine RPM is read from internal gearbox
sensors.
7. Press the joystick right to save
8. PUT the W/S switch in the S position, and repeat points 1-7.
An external speed sensor is absolutely preferable, as there is a limitation on the internal speed calculation,
since the speed cannot be read while shifting.
After connecting the External speed sensor, run the car slowly (10 km/h) and see what the speed says, in “LiveData” if
it is not correct it should be adjusted in the setup menu "Adjust Ext Speed % "
Setup the shift firmness

Shift Firmness.
When you first drive the car, be take careful notice of how hard the shifts are.
If all shifts are too soft or too hard it can be adjusted with the following setting.
“Shift Firmness” -> "General Firmness"
If shifts are too soft, reduce the number to get harder shifts.
If shifts are too hard, increase the number to get softer shifts.
Please be aware that if shifts are too soft, it can cause a problem where a shift does not complete and it stays in the
gear it was in. A shift that is a little too hard is always better than a shift that is too soft.

3.3 Manual Shift
Use the joystick up/down to change gear, 100% manual / or paddle shifters. / or switches connected to a rally type
shifter. It is still only possible to change gear one time every 2 sec (Adjustable in setup menu.). It is only possible to
downshift the same as a kickdown would, Safety that you not turn over the engine.
3.4 Setup Parameters
Setup TPS
Setup TPS allows you to calibrate the TPS (Throttle Position Sensor). This process teaches the controller
about the signal it can expect to receive from the TPS when the throttle pedal is both fully depressed and
when it is not depressed at all.
Put the “W/S” switch into the W position (if you have the Mercedes Gear Lever),
2. Press the joystick down until “SETUP” is shown on the display
4. Now that you are in the SETUP menu, Press the joystick down until "Setup TPS " is displayed.
5. Press Joystick right, to enter this menu.
6. Now with 0% TPS (throttle pedal not depressed) press the joystick UP
7. Then press the throttle pedal fully (100% TPS) and press the joystick DOWN
LOAD – TPS Boost; Boost part load
For turbocharged diesel engines with a boost sensor, the torque of the engine is calculated as a combination
of TPS and boost. This means if a diesel engine with a peak torque of 750Nm has 250 Nm with no boost, and
100% TPS, the engine is at around 33% torque. When the turbo kicks in and boost pressure is at 2 bars, we
then get the remaining 66% torque and peak output of 750 Nm. For a Gasoline car it is different here we only
use TPS, 100% TPS is 100% torque.
“Setup Parameter” -> “Load - TPS Boost”

Diesel cars where boost sensor is mounted set it to 2.5
Gasoline cars 3L (6 cyl) set it to 1.5
Gasoline cars 5L (V8) or more set it to 1
When the number is changed it is saved automatically, no need to press right to save this setting.
If set to “2” then it means that the Throttle depressed 100% gives 50% Load, Boost gives the rest.
“Setup Parameter” -> “Boost Part Load”

Diesel cars where boost sensor is mounted set it to 33
Gasoline cars 6 cyl set it to 1
Gasoline cars V8 or more set it to 1
Here you do have to press right to save after the number is changed to the desired value
If set to lets say 33  L = TPS / 2.5 + Boost * 33

LOAD = Torq of the engine I approximate from TPS and Boost.
Let’s say an engine has 700 Nm with 100% TPS and 2 bar boost.
What does it has at 1 bar and 100% TPS

Load = TPS / 2.5 + Boost * 33  Torq = 100 / 2.5 + 1 * 33 = 73%  Nm = 700 * 0.73 = 511 Nm
EKS “50 / 2 + 1 * 33 = 25 + 33 = 68% Torq / load}
Converter Lockup; Converter Unlock; Lockup 2-4 gear
Converter Lockup allows you to set the speed in km/h at which to lock up the torque converter in 5th gear. Converter
Unlock allows you to set the speed in km/h at which to unlock the torque converter in 5th gear. It must be lower than
the lockup setting above.
The lockup behavior can be chosen in the Lockup 2-4 gear menu:
0 Only lockup in 5th gear

-1 Like 0, but do not unlock if TPS goes below 10%
1 Lockup in 2,3,4 and 5th gear. This is useful for keeping the temperature down when pulling
heavy loads, or driving uphill. The 2 – 4 overdrive feature is activated if you put gear lever in
position 4.
2 Always lockup in 2-5 gear also if the lever is in “D”
3 Like 2 but also no unlock with no throttle.
4 Like 3 but also shifts gear with locked converter, converter only unlocks if below 30 km/h This
is only useful at Racetrack :-)
5 Special only unlock if speed is below 10 Km/h and lock if in “2” and speed > 10, this is a
special setting for an Electrical vehicle (only from ver_140)
6 Lockup over a switch 12V in on (D0 kickdown 12V in), but then you can NOT use kickdown
on this input, no soft lockup in this mode as it is for Racing / Drifting (only from ver_143)
7 Lockup if speed bigger then 30 km/hr and locked under shift And it unlocks if TPS > 75% And
it unlocks if speed is < 30 km/h Does "NOT" unlock it TPS < 10% (only from ver_170)
8 Lockup if speed bigger then 30 km/hr and locked under shift And it unlocks if TPS > 75% And
it unlocks if speed is < 30 km/h Does unlock it TPS < 10% (only from ver_170)
9 Locks if Gear > 2 and Trottle > 10% and speed > 30, locks hard, this setting is for ¼ mile
TPS Speed 25%; TPS Speed 50%; TPS Speed 75%

Volt reg 100%
Here you can adjust the Voltmeter if not showing correct value.
Temp reg +/-

Here you can adjust the temperature +/- 20 deg this is only to be used if you know it is displayed wrongly.
Kickdown at %TPS
if set to 97 then you will have kick-down if TPS > 97 if set to 101 you never get kick-down. If you set it to 105
Kickdown would be triggered from external 12V source.
Fail Handling
Default is “1”
Max speed fail

There is a safety function not allowing km/h to fall down to fast, should be set to max 20
Slow upshift
The higher the number the slower upshift, by instant release of throttle, it suppresses unwanted upshifts, when cruising
slow around in the city.
PWM N->D P->R

This feature is called Garage Shift by Mercedes. If you have hard shift when shift in to D and R the the number must be
higher, too high it will not engage. The default value is 25, but you can make the P/N -> R and P/N -> D softer by
higher number try 35, but if it does not engage you have to lower the value, the first 2 times you engage R or D this
value is not used, to make sure we have engagement first time. If it will not engage in D or R set to 15
PWM 3-4 N-D/P

The Valve for the 3-4 shift is triggered width a PWM signal when shifting from N->D or P->R this is default 50.
This is to give a smoother engage. If you have any problem that it sometimes not engages, set it to “0”
RPM INT/EXT; Adjust ext RPM
Use internal RPM from gearbox, or external RPM. The internal RPM will always show 0 if car is stationary, and engine
is running as the converter is slipping, this is normal.
The external RPM signal can be adjusted if the value is not showing the correct RPM, only use if you use external
engine RPM. The default value in the Adjust ext RPM is 36. If RPM is too high, lower this number.
In Software > 157 there is two separate menu One for
Speed in/EXT; EXT Speed %; INT Speed %

The best situation is to have the controller connected to an external speed signal. Since many older cars do
not have one, the controller can work with the speed sensors internal to the gearbox as well. This allows the
car to drive, but has a significant downside as well. During shift, there is a short timeframe where the speed
can not be calculated. In case of a significant speed increase (powerful engine) or speed decrease (emergency
brake during shift), the speed signal can fluctuate too much and the controller will stop shifting to prevent
potential damage.
Use internal/external speed (to decide if you are going to use an External speed sensor or not)
PUT the “W/S” switch in the W position

1. Turn on the ignition, but do NOT start engine.
4. Now that you are in the SETUP menu, Press the joystick down until "Use int
speed/Rpm" is displayed.
6. Press the joystick up or down to select “0, 1 or 2” as per the list below.
7. Press the joystick right to save
8. PUT the W/S switch in the S position, and repeat points 1-7.
After connecting the choosing the way to calculate speed, the speed needs to be checked for accuracy. To do
so, run the car slowly (10 km/h) and see what the speed says in “LiveData”. If it is not correct it should be
adjusted in the setup menu "Adjust Ext Speed %" or INT Speed %, depending if you are using an internal or
an external speed signal.
Delay 3-4
The 722.6 gearbox has a delay when shifting from 3 -> 4. This delay can be an issue with high powered cars
or when towing. This option allows you to adjust the shifting behavior to match the health of your gearbox
and the power / usage of your car. Only if you have problem with slip in 3-4, start with 5 and 1 up at the
time, until it goes away, do not go over 15 since then you have a bad box.
If you set it to exact “-1” the 3 -> 4 shift only happens if TPS is below 45% that is great as you let of the TPS
when you want the shift, and it shift smooth.
If you set it to “-1 to -9” the 3 -> 4 shift only happens if TPS is below -1 = 10% and -9 = 90% that is great as
you let of the TPS when you want the shift, and it shift smooth.
Reset km
Press Right This will reset to Total Km to “0” Km
Press Up this will add 1000 Km at each press
Press Down This will subtract 100 Km, that mean you can adjust to a precision of 100 km.

7. Press Joystick Right to save
Idle RPM <500 no

Only used in some cases, if components is mounted. and only if there is external RPM-signal as the calculated RPM
signal will always be 0 at stationary car. it has to be set higher then 500 RPM, to get an output.
From ver 123
If set to exatly “510” something special will happen it will adjust idle to 800 when Gearoil temp is below 45 deg, and to

you drive very slow in high gear, (only in SW 95 or higher)
"Time bet shift " = time between shifts

Used to change the minimum time between shift, if set to 1000 mS then you can shift from 1 to 2 then you have to wait
1 sec to shift 2 to 3,
This time is also used in automatic mode but here is added 500 mS this means that when the time is set to 1500 mS
“Standard ” it is 2000 mS in automatic.
"0 point boost " Moved to Boost menu

where the boost sensor has 0 bar on the 0 - 1024 scale if it is a 3 bar sensor it would propably hav a range from -1,5 bar
to 3,5 bar 0 - 5 v and the value here should propably be set to 300.it can be tested on the 2. live data page,
where you press right on the live data, you can press right to get the second page. you should adjust until
you just see a little boost when engine not running.
"Max boost at 5v " Moved to Boost menu

This is the max boost your sensor can handle. A 3 bar boost sensor has 3 bar at 4,5 volt, 3,5 bar at 5 volt, this value has
to be set to 350 “mBar at 5 volt”
“Show on Display at Startup”

Under “GeneralBoost” goto Use PWM - AUX-4,
The following happens for different value
2, you get instant 200 mS 100% PWM
12 you get 100 mS delayed 200 mS 100% PWM (1 is 100mS delay the 2 is 200-100 = 100 mS
signal)
25 you get 200 mS delayed 500 mS 100% PWM (2 is 200mS delay the 5 is 500-200 = 300 mS

3.4 Shift Speeds
Here you can see all UP / DOWN shift at actual TPS,

You can test it by stopping the engine, go to this screen, and press the throttle, to see when it would change at that TPS.
Here you can change the value of all shifts

0% throttle 1-2 called Min 1-2, Upshift
100% throttle 1-2 called max 1-2 Upshift
0% throttle 1-2 called Min 2-1 Downshift
100% throttle 1-2 called max 2-1 Downshift
Kickdown ok 2>>1
If the Speed is lower then this value it is ok to shift down to 1 gear at kickdown
RPM Kickdown 1-2

At this RPM it will make upshift from 1>>2
Kickdown ok RPM
Downshift width Kickdown will only happen if RPM is below this value
3.5 Shift Firmness
LineLowLoad 1>>2 Default value = 20 (Higher value = Softer shift at low load)
PresLowLoad 1>>2 Default value = 30 (Higher value = Softer shift at low load)
LineHiLoad 1>>2 Default value = -6 (Higher value = Softer shift at High load)
PresHiLoad 1>>2 Default value = 12 (Higher value = Softer shift at High load)
LineLowLoad 2>>1 Default value = 20

PresLowLoad 2>>1 Default value = 30
LineHiLoad 2>>1 Default value = -6
PresHiLoad 2>>1 Default value = 12
If you find the shift from 1>>2 to hard at very low load.
Then try this
LineLowLoad 1>>2 LineLowLoad = 22
PresLowLoad 1>>2 PresLowLoad = 32
Remember to press the >> key to save the values.
And before shutting the car down remember to save it permanently under “Userdata/Factory (” version 2 saves it
automatacally.)
And do the same for high load, if you find the shift to hard or too soft.
When this is done and you find that the shift are too soft or too hard at lets say 50% load, you need to change
those
When you have set up nice soft shift and good hard shift. then you can fine tune with number below
"Load at 25% load" if you have to soft or too hard shift at 25% load if to hard lower the number
"Load at 50% load" same but at 50%
"Load at 75% load" same but at 75%
In this menu you can adjust all shiftfirmness parameters manuelly
When you first drive the car, be take careful notice of how hard the shifts are.
If all shifts are too soft or too hard it can be adjusted with the following setting.
“Shift Firmness” -> "General Firmness"
If shifts are too soft, reduce the number to get harder shifts.
If shifts are too hard, increase the number to get softer shifts.
Please be aware that if shifts are too soft, it can cause a problem where a shift does not complete and it stays in the
gear it was in. A shift that is a little too hard is always better than a shift that is too soft.
In the gereral Firmness
You can adjust correction for temperature, and adjust general Linepressure
From ver 139 “LineAdjust” All changed to “Firmness All L=H” L=H means Lower number = harder shift
This now adjust both LinePressure and ShiftPresssure, Lower number = harder shift, higher number = softer shifts.
If you want to adjust the hardness for different load, go in here.

If you want the shift to bee a bit harder at 30% load then just adjust, higher number is harder shift, but only at 30% load
before you leave this menu it is possible to save changes, it automatically saves in “W” or “S” depending on the switch
position.
The last menu in Shift Firmness is the Min / Max at any gear, Just leave it, its fine as it is :-)
3.6 Rate Last Shift MENU
This is the Rate Shift Menu
When the gearbox have shifted you see the last shift, and at what load, the shift was done.
On this oicture below it has shiftet from 2->1 at load 1% = no load
Here i pressed the joystick down, to tell the controller to make it a little more smooth next time.
And the controller reply width “Notet to hard” and it will make it more smooth next time.
There is 10 different load points, on every shift. and they are different on up and down also.
4. User manual for boost control
Here we see the Boost screen We have set the Boost to 0,6 bar and the boost is 0,63 thats why you
see the PWM out is less then 100% = WasteGate is opening
Boost Controller part of the 722.6 controller.

The Boost controller can be used in different ways.
If you want to use Boost Controller
Goto “Boost Control” -> “General boost” -> “VNT Boost/EGP”
The value means the following
0 Boost Controller in PWM mode allow, you to specify PWM depending on boost, see later in this document)
1, 2, 3, 4 is for VNT Turbos 4 different algorithm to adjust boost
5 is for Normal Turbo
6 is for Normal Turbo more aggressive limit
7 is for Normal Turbo even more aggressive limit
8,9,.....................
20 extreme aggressive limit
At the bottom we have the Boost Control menu
In there is a General Boost, and all the many data points you can change
Lets say you have an normal Turbo, just want to open wastegate when boost hits 1 bar
Goto “Boost Control” -> “TPS -> Boost”
Press -> on the joystick.
Here below you have 11 data points for any throttle position, 0.10.20.30....100%
Right key gives you next point, Left gives you previous.
Up key higher value, Down lower value
Check out this YouTybe Video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULEGavGRavs
To see what you have programmed you watch the live data in the live data menu.
Here you see that TPS is 41% and the Limit is set to be max 0.6 bar boost = 9 PSI. at that throttle position.
But as you see boost are a little higher, that's why the PWM out is not 100% it has started to open the
Wastegate on the turbo.
If you want More Control over what happens, you can specify exactly what PWM signal is sent to the Boost
valve.
PWM is Puls width Modulation. if it is 10% that means that yeo have 10% power to the solonoid valve, and
wastegate is almost fully open
If PWM is set to 100% the solonoid will make full vacumm and wastegate will close
Goto “Boost Control” -> “General boost” -> “VNT Boost/EGP” set value to “0”
Goto “Boost Control” -> “General boost” -> “Use PWM-1 Boost” set to “1”
Now the menu has Changed and ready to do PWM.
Goto “Boost Control” -> “EGP-Boost -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “Boost -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “RPM -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “Speed -> % PWM” set what you want here
The lovest PWM value will be taken from the above and send to Valve
On Picture below you see that the boost limits PWM to 30 %
Holset CAN-BUS Control fromSW ver_144
And HW ver 4 the new Smaller SMD board
The Holset HE351VE is a popular VNT turbo, that is why i now support to run this turbo over the CANBUS
output.
Goto “Boost Control” -> “General boost” -> “CANBUS” set it to “HOLSET 1” or “HOLSET 2” if set to HOLSET
2 it moves the vanes the other direction.
Goto “Boost Control” -> “General boost” -> “VNT Boost/EGP” set it to “0”
Now Restart the controller 2 times.
The Controller now control the Turbo depending on the settings in
Goto “Boost Control” -> “EGP-Boost -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “Boost -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “RPM -> % PWM” set what you want here
Goto “Boost Control” -> “Speed -> % PWM” set what you want here
%PWM is % position of the vnt vanes in this mode.
Connect the Holset, there is 4 wire coming out the Holset controller
RED / Green = 12V
Green / yellow = 0V GND
Yellow = CAN H
Green = CAN L
Picture of my test setup

Extra AUX output for other stuff
There are 3 more PWM AUX output,
AUX-2
“General Boost” -> “USE AUX-2”
If Use “USE AUX-2” is set to “1” Then it works this way
The AUX-2 PWM out. takes input from the TPS, EGP, RPM and gives out the lowest of the 3.
From ver 159 (Start Fan for Gear oil Cooler)

If Use “USE AUX-2” is set to “3” Then it works this way
The AUX-2 PWM out. Takes input from Gear oil temp and Pulse AUX-2 to ground at higher
then 90° and releases at 85°
if “USE AUX-2” is set to “2” then it is used as starter lockout. (search for starter lockout)
If “USE AUX-2” is set to “3” then the signal is used to pull the solonoid on the Gearlever,
then it can not be moved in to R and P while driving more then 10 km/h (It gives a ground
signla, you have to supply 12V to the other side of solenoid)
AUX-3
If “USE AUX-3” is set to “1”
This takes in Analog input 1 in and Boost, RPM, and gives out the lowest PWM of the 3 out
.
This output is also used for reversing Ligth if Lever is set to “2” and can then not be used
for AUX-3
If “USE AUX-3” is set to “3” Then

the signal is used to pull the solonoid on the Gearlever, then it can not be moved in to R
and P while driving more then 10 km/h (It gives a ground signla, you have to supply 12V to
the other side of solonoid)
If “USE AUX-3” is set to “4” Then it works this way

The AUX-3 PWM out. takes input from Gear oil temp and pulse AUX-3 to ground at higher
than 90° and releases at 85°
AUX-4,
Same as previous just another analog input. (if set to 1 it is used depending on A-
2,Boost,RPM)
This output can also be used to get a signal out to limit power of engine.
Under “General Boost” go to “Use PWM - AUX-4”,
The following happens for different value
1, it is used depending on A-2,Boost,RPM as AUX, not Pover limit function.
12 you get 100 mS delayed 200 mS 100% PWM (1 is 100mS delay the 2 is 200-100 = 100
mS signal)
25 you get 200 mS delayed 500 mS 100% PWM (2 is 200mS delay the 5 is 500-200 = 300
mS signal)
By the way Engine limit only works at TPS > 20% (prevent stop engine at low RPM)
AUX-4 Explanation
Analog in 0-5 volt out = PWM signal 50% means valve on half the time.

6. Troubleshooting
Fail messages and what they mean
1. "RPM_1 Start Fail" and km/h set to 200

2. "RPM_1 Start Fail" and km/h set to 175
3. "Speed Fail" and km/h set to 150
4. "GearLever N at speed" and km/h set to 125
5. "Shut down under speed"
There is a setting how to handle the fail messages
"Setup" -> "Fail Handling"
Standart setting is "1" or 2 in older controllers Please do not change this setting, unless talk to me
first.
Setting = 0 (Please do not use this setting)

No fail messages and no Lock shift.
Setting = 1
1,2,3 gives a fail message no lock of shift
4,5 Locks shift if they happens, and gives a fail messages
Setting = 2
3 only gives a speed fail message no lock of shift
1,2,4,5 Locks shift if they happens, and gives a fail messages
Setting = 3
1,2,3,4,5 Locks shift if they happens, and gives a fail messages
If you get the Message, "Shut down under speed Press Left to Reset"
You have to press left on the joystick to reset the fail,
only do that at stationary 0 km/h

But i have not yet tried it, all info i have found is below here
Please if anyone know how the S65 switch is working, please tell me, what i think is that it is just
short the 2 wires but not sure. ?
If it works as i think the S65 simply short 2 wires. ? if it is like that then mount a relay to short, and
drive the relay, width the output from controller.
A1 Is it correct to say that if you don’t have the Mercedes gear lever, you can perform steps 1-8
and ignore step 9?
A2 This section is very confusing to me. Can you explain the default behaviour? Does converter
normally lockup if the lever is in positions 1,2,3,4?
Do the speed settings above for lock and unlock only apply to 5th gear?
It seems to me that if you use setting 1 and you are in manual mode and you drive until you are in 4th
gear, then take your foot off the throttle, stop and leave the gearbox in 4th, then the converter will still
be locked when you stop because TPS<10%. Is that correct?
Are these settings affected by the gear lever position or do they behave the same in auto, manual or
gear lever selected gears?
GearOil
It is very important that the gear Oil level is correct in the 722.6 but if
you don't have a dipstick here is how you can make you own. as the
722.6 newer has a dipstick from new.

with the manual speedo on the 722.4. Here's a diagram of the strategy. (The full thread on this topic,
including images of the proof-of-concept test is here - Mechanical to Electronic Speedometer
Conversion )
Momentum for the 722.6 (W5A580)- 578lb/ft = 800 Nm
i think the strongest automatic 722.6 is the 722.649 this is connected
to the 65 amg and handle 1000nm
722.608 300 td diesel
722.623 some v8 petrols
722.649 e65 amg,s
