| 00:00 | We have already discussed the concept of packages but with the M1’s operation being so heavily reliant on the package, it’s important to understand exactly what a package entails. |
| 00:12 | The most important aspect to understand is that the firmware the ECU runs is part of the package. |
| 00:19 | The firmware is what tells the ECU what inputs and outputs to expect and how to treat the information. |
| 00:27 | Without the firmware, the M1 ECU is just a blank box and depending on the firmware of the particular package, the ECU can control anything from a 3 cylinder jet ski, through to a twin turbo V12 or even a gearbox. |
| 00:43 | The key is in the way the firmware has been written. |
| 00:47 | Beyond the firmware, the package also contains the actual tuning information. |
| 00:52 | These are the tables and parameters we as tuners enter to make the package operate the engine how we want it to. |
| 01:01 | With the M1, MoTeC has introduced the concept of security, with different users allowed access to different parameters. |
| 01:09 | The security information is detailed and stored within the package. |
| 01:15 | Lastly the package will also include package specific workbooks and worksheets that are relevant to the particular package. |
| 01:24 | This helps display only the parameters you need to know to tune the particular package you are working on. |
| 01:31 | If you send a different package to your ECU, everything can change as the firmware, tuning information and worksheets may be drastically different. |
| 01:41 | This lets a package be very accurately targeted at doing the best job possible of running a particular engine. |
