I'm not on a high horse. I just keep reading about smoothing and it doesn't make any sense. Why take a good tune and ruin it because the graph doesn't look pretty? Regardless, the ECM is going to win every time if it's a closed loop tune. You change a VE...ECM says nope, I don't like that and changes it behind you. You won't win. You may be proud of that pretty graph but the ECM has plans of its own.
EGR is a whole different animal and should probably have it's own sticky. It's ALOT of trial and error and back and forth. Will it make a difference? Yes. How much? That's something every individual person will need to decide if it's even worth trying. All my point is that once the VE's are dialed in forget what the graph is looking like. The bike says "Hey this is what I like". PV says "Hey I hear you loud and clear and will set up the VE's just how you like them". All the graph does is take numbers and makes a picture out of them. But too many get caught up in the picture instead of listening to what the bike wants.

The screen shots were too small to see on my laptop. Maybe someone else can see them.
The delta won't help us much if you're looking for feedback. All the delta tells you is how much changed from the tune you started with and the tune you ended up with. It will continue to show changes every time you make a new tune. What it doesn't tell you is if you're near the finish line. You can either rely on the % results at the end of the process or use log tuner to look at every cells change. What did the results say at the end of your new tune?

You can download it from the PV website, go to support, downloads, software...then look for PV Log Tuner.

When you say locked, do you mean you cannot edit them? One thing I don't care for in the software is that the default file locations are hidden and have special permissions set. I don't use them and save my tunes to another location of my choosing. I can easily find them via explorer or other methods. If you haven't already try opening the tunes, saving them to a new location, and then copying.
By locked can only work them on my old computer. Flash drive does not work going to try right now to put them on PV then to new computer. Will note here if it works or not.
NOTE.. I took tunes from old computer put on PV then to new computer and I can open them now on new computer. Old logs and stuff is still locked but really I don't need them.

Does anybody know how to un lock the tunes? I have got new computer and can not get to my tunes that I have made. I get on my old laptop with them but can not figure out how to unlock them. Have not tried but one work around maybe to put tunes on power vision then put them on my new computer? Has anyone else changed computers and had tunes locked?

That's what you want it to do. It's only an excel spreadsheet. LogTuner just lets you import your starting tune and logs so it can create a new/updated tune based on what's contained in the logs. If all you want to do is review the logs then grab the logs off the PV with WinPV and it should drop it to whatever folder you designate or the desktop.
