Setup Hybrid
Control hybrid energy recovery and deployment settings from the cockpit: MGU-K regeneration gain, deploy mode, fixed deploy level, HYS (Hybrid System) boost, HYS regen, and the HYS no-boost toggle.
View sub-modes
Section titled “View sub-modes”The View … entries turn the key into a continuously updating display of the current value in the car. With dual-press enabled (default) the same key also adjusts the value: a short press fires one direction and a long press fires the opposite — so one key replaces the separate Increase / Decrease keys you’d otherwise need.
| View setting | Telemetry source | Format | Typical range |
|---|---|---|---|
| View MGU-K Deploy Mode | dcMGUKDeployMode | integer | 0–4 |
| View MGU-K Regen Gain | dcMGUKRegenGain | integer | car-dependent slot |
| View MGU-K Deploy Fixed | dcMGUKDeployFixed | integer | car-dependent slot |
Dual-press control
Section titled “Dual-press control”Each View sub-mode exposes a single extra setting in the Property Inspector:
- Enable dual-press (default on) — when off, the key stays a pure read-only display and presses do nothing. When on, presses dispatch to the matching adjustment binding (e.g. View MGU-K Regen Gain dispatches to MGU-K Regen Gain + / MGU-K Regen Gain −), so configure those bindings in the Global Settings → Setup Hybrid section.
The tap direction is a single plugin-wide setting under Global Common Settings → Dual-Press → Directions (default Tap increases, long-press decreases; the long-press always fires the opposite of the tap). The threshold separating “short” from “long” is a sibling setting Long-press threshold (ms) (200–2000 ms, default 500 ms). Both take effect on the next press without needing a restart.
Select the mode from the Setting dropdown in the Property Inspector. Directional modes (MGU-K Re-Gen Gain, MGU-K Deploy Mode, MGU-K Fixed Deploy) also expose a Direction setting for Increase / Decrease. HYS Boost and HYS Regen use a hold pattern — the key is held while the button is pressed and released when you release it.
