Not entirely. Part of our ECU code is being written by Ford in the USA, to plug into the code written in France, the UK and Germany by the supplier and the designer. Imagine my annoyance to find that the very first thing that the US code did was convert the incoming temperature signal to Fahrenheit, then convert it back again at the output port. Considering that the numbers are all scaled representations of the real values as 16-bit ints this makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
