The iC-7 is getting a birthday, and it’s backwards compatible.
The iC-7 has always been a display-only device and has been priced accordingly, but with an upcoming firmware update, some added functionality is coming, all without any hardware changes, payments or strings. Further to this, the dash will now be controlled within Haltechs NSP software rather than the old standalone ICC software.
Scott Hilzinger also has some other major news, ‪@haltech‬ is also ready to open up their CAN protocols to the public, making it easier to integrate their products with a wide range of others for those who have the desire and knowledge to do so. This has come due to popular request, and the fact that all levels of the performance industry are simply better equipped to deal with CAN communications these days compared to just a few years ago.
This was filmed at the 2023 ‪@WorldTimeAttackChallenge‬ in Sydney, Australia.

This was not on my bingo card. Thats insanely awesome!

[@deadwaterblacksmithing]

Scott usually looks massive beside marty and moog from MCM but beside Andre he looks like he belongs in the NBA. How this man manages fit fit himself into tiny cars to tune them needs studied by scientists. I believe Andre is roughly the same size as me...

[@hpa101]

Yes he does well to squeeze into a lot of small cars that are often made even smaller by the way of a roll cage etc! kzbin.info/door/kH2fkUhM1nM86-j6xrg_sQcommunity?lb=UgkxlPcUnfNgJl9-FNpZ928fXN5KTDQj2EvB

Super hyped! Thanks guys!

[@its_dhazardous]

wow scott is an absolute unit

[@exidous6831]

Really hope they finally update the MaxxECU firmware to 1.3. IC-7 still runs 1.2 which is from 4+ years ago. I'd hope, worst case updating to NSP will allow custom CAN inputs.

[@MouloudeSUU]

[@ajchristensen]

Nice, stoked for that. I have an iC-7 in my k24t gt86.

[@doubletee4391]

As someone who is in the market for such a device i just don't understand why this product is better than its competitors? It's certainly not significantly less expensive than similar options. Other than working in the haltech ecosystem well what is so great about this product? I'm not being contrary. I'm asking a honest question.

[@xplore7359]

I have to admit, I was a bit disappointed with the ICC software and its functionality when I bought into it so this is very welcome news!

[@davey_projects2977]

It's an optical illusion. Andre is standing 3m further away from the camera than Scott.

Great job Haltech, that's why we love your products 👌

[@BlakeMcBride]

Haltech consistently justifies my investments in their products. Thanks for being awesome, guys and gals!

[@TurboBaldur]

Really love to hear about the ic7 software getting canned. It was so difficult to use that it was actually easier to unzip the config files and edit them in Vim than to configure anything through this software.

[@hpa101]

Yes I guess that was the downside to this plan, as why would you perfect that when you know it will be obsolete in a matter of time and could use those man hours on NSP instead. Long term win though for everyone - Taz.

@hpa101 Thanks! Hard to miss the burnt white wrap on her ass, and the Element extinguisher decal was the for sure giveaway. 😁

[@25aspooner]

If possible, it would be incredible to be able to have a reverse camera that integrates seamlessly with the ecu and display dash.

[@kenny240]

It would require a hardware update to work with external video inputs. Currently, the inputs on the dash itself, only allow for CAN communication and a few analog inputs.

[@igvtec]

I got my ic7 dash, and haltech elite 1500 patch harness for my EG B18C2 build. Probably like two years ago, need to get off my ass and get my project done already. Always been keen on Heltech, got to support Australian products where you can.

[@BuiltByRik]

So the dash I ordered yesterday will already be updated? 17/06/2024.

[@ppoad]

Finally! Would they make the CAN setup on the NSP more flexible for ECUs as well?

[@craigm5511]

FANTASTIC!!!!!

[@najstephy5565]

And here we are 6 months later and no update.

Finally!!! CAN is a 2 way street :)

[@sashazxtt]

@sashazxtt 0 seconds ago regarding OBD2 - it seems there is a fundamental limitation with the Haltech ECUs. If Haltech devices are connected to both main and AUX connectors, there is no way to enable the OBD2 functionality.

[@THEKITPLUG]

Does this mean you can use the PD16 with a motec ecu as long as you have the IC-7 as a master?

[@bigbothoee8617]

I did think that the helltech software was a bit primitive can't wait for the new update

[@Takeitlightly6]

I didnt know scott was this tall. But i like these haltech dashes. Seems its time i sell off my nismo gauge.

[@MidgetBarmaid]

Is this or without the drum? I walked past this interview and Andre was standing on a 20L drum in order to have the height difference not so large!

[@hpa101]

haha glad you saw that! Even on the drum I think they were only just even 😂- Taz.

[@Torches-n-Tap-Sets]

How can we convert or redirect the signal to the IC-7 screen and send it out to the 7" LED in my dual din? My car is a street car so I have a 2500T tandem wired with my factory ECU for compliance purposes. I also prefer the car look sleeper / normal and not give away what's quietly tucked away inside the wire looms. Yet I'd enjoy having an easily monitored output when actually at the track or when editing or tuning. I'd love it if we didn't need to buy an IC-7 to get the feed, but not trying to take money out of Haltech's pockets as they are hitting the US market harder lately (glad to see it!) and I wouldn't mind just cracking one apart to send the feed off to my stereo head unit 7" screen instead.

[@S30Build]

Does that mean there will be 2-way communication between the dash and the NSP? instead of just monitoring the I/O, thy can be controlled by the ecu?

[@frederickhalljr8947]

NICE ❤️

[@djt2njr]

So does this mean we'll finally be able to integrate this dash with other aftermarket ECU's not already listed on their website?

[@kadebugler9]

Will this mean idle control ect?

[@Incognitodemons]

It's the mighty car mod tunner

[@Ismcoyote12]

Will this transfer data from an oem Ecu from the obd port to a haltech ecu ? Some of us are considering using a r3 or 2500 for boost control and safeties ontop of an oe ecu for emissions purposes and trans control

[@hpa101]

Yes, but that's not necessarily plug and play as every OEM is different. Tapping into the stock sensors you have on your road turned race car via CAN is a smart and cost effective thing to do though for sure 😎 - Taz.

[@MrNotStock]

How's the update coming along? :)

[@eddh999]

Does this mean you'll be able to use the input channels to make changes to tables in the ECU? Such as setting target boost pressure, enabling antilag/launch control and setting traction control slip % via the dash?

[@rollinrobo]

Yep

[@eddh999]

@@rollinrobo awesome thank you!

Obviously Haltech kept it a secret by hiding it behind Scott, because he's the size of a redwood.

[@brucelee1067]

[@yipchitaywonga]

Scott is taller than I tought

[@mftsolutions3893]

The most important question is while the dash cost $$$ remain the same once the firmware is released or will it have updated pricing to reflect the added features?

[@5UPRAH]

The firmware release won't make buying the dash more expensive, otherwise the firmware update for existing dashes wouldn't be free....

[@Jamxknife]

I wouldn't be supersized. Demand for them will go up, so the ones on the street will get snatched up at lower prices from people who don't know yet. Could eventually effect supply and make the prices go up.

[@crum086]

The hardware inside the dash is still the same, just it has been firmware limited up until now

[@Mintonperformance]

I will assist where I CAN to offload tech support questions if/when CAN is opened up.

CAN is one of the most basic and easy automotive protocols. It's been around for over 40 years and is obsolete now, too slow for any reasonable data rate and even borderline for real-time signals. Get into the game and at least put CAN-FD on that and give your customers something not ancient. 😒

[@UzumakiGarage]

Thats great! I just updated my Elite 2500 to NSP and now I'm looking at my old Racepak dash and it's looking a bit old. It has logging and GPS feature but I never use either. Thanks @hpa101 @haltech and Scott from Haltech :)

[@4funner66]
