 +The YELLOW wire is defined by default to have a mapping of 0V = 7.35 AFR (0.5 lambda) and 5V = 22.39 AFR (1.52 lambda). ​ This will work nicely using ECMLink'​s LC-1 datalogging item.  So run the YELLOW wire into your selected ECU input for logging and then configure ECMLink to use this input for the LC-1 log item (ECU Inputs tab) and, optionally, for the narrowband simulation function as well.

 The BROWN wire from the MTX-L is defined by default as the "​narrowband"​ simulation output. ​ Because you're using ECMLink, you can leave this wire disconnected (but isolated from ground with some heatshrink or electrical tape) and simply use ECMLink'​s [[v3narrowbandsim|narrowband simulation]] function instead. The BROWN wire from the MTX-L is defined by default as the "​narrowband"​ simulation output. ​ Because you're using ECMLink, you can leave this wire disconnected (but isolated from ground with some heatshrink or electrical tape) and simply use ECMLink'​s [[v3narrowbandsim|narrowband simulation]] function instead.

 It's not a big deal either way, though. ​ So don't go out of your way to make it happen. ​ If it's convenient, great, give it a shot.  If it's not, don't worry about it. It's not a big deal either way, though. ​ So don't go out of your way to make it happen. ​ If it's convenient, great, give it a shot.  If it's not, don't worry about it.
