utec/nitrous

hey guys, so i just got my utec in today and am currently running on my stock ecu that i reflashed which runs great by the way. So map 0 is pump gas, and am planning to retune pump gas and make that map 1 and make map 2 nitrous+pump. So now, Utec states that they have nitrous control/feature. So how do i access/use that and edit it. i plan on running nitrous sometime soon probably and want everything ready if i get it. Is that one of the spare solenoids in the parameter section of the UTEC? if so, how do i begin controlling nitrous with the UTEC as i searched and found nothing lol...thanks guys

Its not a complex feature, Its just a basic circuit that you operate a relay from. If I recall it has several parameters you can control (RPM, Coolant Temp, etc) how/when its activated.

Its nothing like a window controller or a PWM Solenoid controller. That level of complexity just isn't available in the UTEC. There aren't many options for that besides a standalone ECU, or a standalone programmable nitrous controller.

I thought that it was exactly like a window switch. You set a parameter for the RPM at which the solenoid is triggered and an RPM where the solenoid is turned off in addition to other parameters such at TP, You do have to put the solenoids on another arming switch so that you are not triggering on your regular map. I don't understand how it differs from a window controller.
