The cold idle control and the cold idle multiplier are the ones you want. The Hi-cam will actually increase the RPM at all times. Yes, the values for the idle speed are way off, and that is a function of the definition file itself. Bill has fixed the definition (or figured out what he needs to do to change it) but hasn't had the time to get it updated.

If I'm not mistaken, you can start with small values (divide the desired RPM increase by 4) and you should be close to what you want. Bill actually set up one of the definitions to display the actual RPM you want the engine to run at after a specific time.

I used that function on my PMT1 files (originally-purchased definition) with no issues before, but I was using the emulator at the time to get the RPM right where I wanted it.

It appears the values for the multiplier are in seconds, could this be the amount of time it takes to pick up the high idle?

That might be pretty handy.

I have played with it a bit using the emulator (which BTW has not left the PCM in a few months), and the changes seemed to take a very long time to respond. I need to play with it a bit more when temps drop a few more degrees to see what its going to do.
