Ideal For:
Introduction: Designed for the advanced tuner, the R-500 combines 3 essential parameters (Air/Fuel, EGT, Knock) of internal combustion engine tuning into one! Whether you're on the dyno, track, autocross, street or drag strip, the R-500 can be fully customized to suite your individual application. With intuitive user menus packed with features, merged with powerful PC software, there is virtually nothing that the R-500 can't do.
Key Features:
Functional Description: CLICK TO ENLARGE External Sensors R-500 is capable of connecting to 3 external sensors. 1) Wideband oxygen sensor (Bosch or NTK) for accurate air/fuel ratio measurements. 2) K-Type thermal coupler for exhaust gas temperature measurements. 3) Knock sensor for knock volts and audible knock detection. This gives you the capability of actually "listening" to your knock sensor with headphones to detect ping, or signs of premature detonation. Data Logger Inputs The R-500 features a built-in 6 input (2 speed, 4 analog) data logger with 90 minutes of on board memory. The 2 speed inputs can be connected to any signal which gives a pulse (Freq Range: 0Hz-10KHz) and the 4 analog inputs can be connected to any signal which gives a voltage between 0-5V. Analog voltages between 5V-25V will be capped at 5V and will not damage the data logger. This gives the user absolute freedom to interface with various signals to and from your ECU. Here are a few examples of signals that can be logged by the R-500

Logged data can be uploaded to a PC via high speed USB Port for further analysis with the included powerful PLX Logger software. Serial data can also be streamed via USB port for real-time PC monitoring and recording (same as M-500). Sampling rate is 10Hz for 6 simultaneous channels.
Are you a software developer? Here's the serial protocol Wideband Controller Technology: Tech Article: PLX Critical Response Wideband Technology The R-500 employs the same race-proven wideband controller technologies as our popular M-Series product line. PLX widebands utilize the latest digital PID and DSP technologies to maximize O2 sensor reaction time and accuracy without compromising overshoot, and slow settling response time. Accurate to 0.1 AFR, this technology is coupled with advanced self sensor calibration circuitry and sensor soft start to both prolong the life of your oxygen sensor as well as eliminate any user intervention for manual sensor calibration. Sensor calibration is NOT required; simply “Plug and Play.” The R-500 can be fully customized to select the specific fuel setting for your application. Fuels with lead are compatible with the Bosch and NTK sensors.
Fully Customizable Wideband Output: In addition to the linear 0-5V (M-Series) analog output, and 0-1V narrowband analog output, the R-500 has an extra output which is fully customizable. You will be able to customize how your output voltage corresponds with the measured air/fuel ratio (lambda) to fit and integrate with any application you wish. This procedure can be done on the R-500 unit and does not require a PC. All R-Series analog outputs can be used simultaneously. Engine Knock Noise Calibration: The R-500 implements an advanced knock detection algorithm. Your engine's background knock noise can be normalized with respect to your RPM. Since all vehicles exhibit different noise characteristics, the R-500 can be setup to neutralize your engine's background noise. The R-500 is capable of displaying raw knock volts or normalized knock volts giving you a very power tool for maximizing your engine's timing.
Advanced PC Software Analysis: The included PC software is both versatile and powerful. Data can be recorded in real-time on the PC or linked with the R-500 to download prerecorded data. PLX Logger (free download) comes with the following key features.
Programmable Warning Light: Protect your engine from damage with the fully programmable warning light. The R-500 warning LED can be fully customized to activate based on a 1 or 2 variable comparison. For example, you may choose to set the warning light to activate if your throttle position exceeds 50% and your AFR rises above 13.9. You may also setup the warning light as a shift light utilizing a 1 variable comparison.
USB Interface:
M-Series 100% Compatibility: The R-500 is 100% compatible with all M-Series wideband controller models. All R-Series widebands have outputs for M-Series WB Linear output (0-5V) and M-Series NB output (0-1V) analog signals. The R-Series and M-Series o2 sensor harness are also identical. No rerouting of your existing M-Series o2 sensor harness is required for R-Series connectivity. M-Series o2 sensor harness will plug directly into the R-Series harness. M-Series 52mm gauge is also compatible with R-Series. R-Series Firmware Reflash Capability: The R-500 consists of the latest 32 bit microprocessor technologies and has a tremendous amount of processing power. New firmware upgrades with additional features will routinely be available. Every R-Series controller comes with a firmware reflash card. Simply connect one end of the card to the R-Series controller and the other end to your computer's parallel port. Upload the new firmware, reboot and your R-Series wideband controller will be instantaneously better than before.
