Nitrous/Aux Outputs

Do any of the Aux outputs cycle on power up? I seem to remember this being something to watch for in the past, but has been a while since I have dealt with it on Mx00 box and just wanted to verify before I finalize this harness.

Thanks guys!

As someone who has personally been through this exact scenario with an NOS channel.I can assure you
that all the outputs are cycled upon initial turning on of the Mx00 series ecu.
Although you can wire up the nos in such a way so that it will not be momentarily switched on.
In the earlier days of the Mx00 series i had asked the guys at motec oz the same question
and about why this occurred and was explained that it was how the ecu ran a self test, its .0 something of a second long in time.

try this:

Aux output to Arm switch
Arm switch out to solenoid AND a digital in

That way you'll only spray when the arm is on and it doesn't matter if the Aux cycles :)

Thanks for the confirmation guys, I will plan on adding a switch to arm/disarm the system. I am doing a rewire from another system that has certain outputs that don't cycle, and was just trying to verify if I needed to redo the wiring design a bit.
