Hooray for the good guys!

Thanks a lot for that Speedy. I was fairly dumfounded. Out of all the beta testing people we had operating around the globe, we never had a report of this problem. Then one frome the first batch we sent after final release... D'oh.

We are thrilled you like our software. A number of workshops have expressed their delight in the ease of use of it.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Quick question. Is there anyway to do automatic sequential datalogs?

I'd like to set it up so that it starts logging when the throttle position is greater than 90% and stops when it drops below 90%. I also see where you can choose the destination of the file prior to starting the run but it would be nice if you could do 3-4 runs in a row without having to stop and enter a new file name. With some of the other programs I have used, they would allow sequential file naming if you placed a wildcard in the original file description. I think that this would really help to streamline the data collection process.

Keep up the great work! Now I'm off to collect some data.

 

Why would you want to do data logging in one gear only. Unless you keep the throttle open when changing up a gear ?

Squential logging is nice idea though.

I found I need to cool down the car for 2nd run anyway.

 

Speed Racer,

The log will run continuously until press the stop log button. When you hit a stop trigger it stops writing to the log file but doesn't stop logging. So when you hit the start trigger again you will get entries written the file again until you hit the stop trigger. You won't stop the logging process until you hit the Stop Log button. As a result you'll get multiple "runs" in the same file.

Would you prefer multiple runs in different files? If the answer is yes then I'll look to add this into the next release.

 

Sco is correct. Stop/Start triggers are not "single shot". They keep going. And the same with "start / stop" logging. It just appends to the same file when you start. You can identify the individual "runs" in the data by the gaps in the log times.

This is cool. A CanScan owner using sCANalyser to tune his CZ piggyback. :D

If this gets big we might have to have a dedicated forum for sCANalyser community to swap ideas, help each other etc.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

That is a good idea.

I beta tested the goodies but still not sure how to apply to a few mods. I need help on those for sure.

Let's do it!

The only disappointing thing in the Lambda thing is the sensor cuts out too early. Mine at full throttle just touches it thanks god but some car I tested touch it whenever it hits 100% throttle.

 

Yes, that is a great idea!

 

You missed a bit ... "always" between "is" and "correct". :D :p

I'm hope I'm correct... I wrote the logging code .. If I don't know.. who does? :p :D

 

Can you explain that better?

 

Just bought one too to be hooked up to my carpc.

 

Vido,

And did I reply quick or not? Should be able to post it today.

Since it is 3rd June here and still the 2nd June in the USA, I hope that doesn't mean we are slow!

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Very Quick Service!

Thanks Hymee.

Hope you guys release the API in the future. I want to add this device as a plugin into my carPC interface.

I'm very excited about it. Been waiting patiently for a long time.

-Thanks

Vido,

The API is still under development and will be released soon. I'm interested to know how you intend to use it (e.g. how do you want it to plug in)... if you can fill me in it would help me make the API as developer friendly as possible.

Cheers

WE soon soon have our Shipment.. for USA REsale..
FYI

 

Yeah, I'd prefer multiple runs in different files but for the time being the triggered start/stop works fine. No rush on this, as I can just split them into separate files when I open it in Excel.

Personally I'd rather see playback (w/ VCR like controls) of the data logs on the Live screen and be able to log knock retard in the next release.

 

I'm making a program I dub CarGUI in C# (I also know vb.net). It has 3 windows forms. The MainForm is covering the whole screen. The LaunchForm is on the left side and slides in/out. the ControlForm is at the bottom. The plugin is a dll assembly that implements the Core.IPlugin interface. In this interface are 2 important methods that will return the UserControl that will be placed on the MainForm and another for adding onto the ControlForm. The LaunchForm lets me switch plugin easily and displays other misc infomation. It's a pretty simple setup.

public interface IPlugin
{
string getVersion();
string getName();
string getDescription();

UserControl getControl(); // Main control placed on the MainForm
UserControl getControlDash(); //the controls for the plugin, placed on the ControlForm.

}

Right now I have 2 plugins I'm working on. Plugin.GPS lets me use mappoint as my gps. Plugin.MediaPlayer lets me use media player to play music and anything else (if you install lots of codec).

Other Plugins
-----------
Plugin.sCANalyser
Plugin.Camera
Plugin.Web
Plugin.TV
Plugin.Radio

if anyone has any other ideas for plugin let me know.

I'm glad we got your off to you quickly V!

We have found out some interesting "things" about pay pal. Our "very first" customer payed via pay-pal with something known as an eCheck. Even though he had a proportion of the funds already in his paypal account, it took 6 days for it to clear and be "confirmed". as such he was very dissapointed that he had paid express post. We have sorted this issue out between us, and he has some talks to PayPal about it.

What we are doing is putting a note on the Hymee site regarding PayPal payments with eCheck take some time to clear.

Just thought I would draw this to everyones attention just in case.

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Thanks for the feedback. We'll look at multiple files sometime in the future.

I've already got a prototype version of VCR like controls going... just needs a bit of tidy up before I can drop it into a new beta. Knock Retard, like the rest of the non-standard data is coming too. My aim is to be able to get these onto the same set of gauges that shows standard data.

Cheers

Looks like just what I need.

A few questions, though:

What variables can be logged? Is there a list somewhere you could publish?
I was only able to leaf through the last 10-12 pages of this thread, so maybe I missed something.

[B]Can mpg be logged? Can mpg be turned into a gauge?[B] That, for me, would be a huge asset.

Is there any chance the manual could be made available, so we can see what the Scanalyzer is capable of?

Thanks,

El Kabong

 

Hi El Kabong,

There is a list of the parameters the RX-8 supports here:
https://www.rx8club.com/showpost.php...&postcount=311

MPG can't be logged at the moment, nor turned into a circular gauge. We're looking to change that but it may not be for a version or two. However, you can log the source data (MAF, Widerange O2 readings and vehicle speed) and we can help you with the formula to calculate it.

Cheers

Hymee, Sco,

Got a phone call from Customs on Friday. Your first European shipment is already in Belgium and will be delivered to me on Monday.

Thanks,

Fabrice

 

Good news. I hope the European interest is high!

Cheers,
Hymee.

 

Nemesis,

What is the lowest lambda value that the RX-8 senses Hymee help..

0.75 something.. some car I have seen Hymee tested hits that mark and gets below it and hence has a flat line.

The top value is easy to remember 1.349 (it hit all the time when there is no pressure to throttle).

Therefore, for cars that are very rich. The value is out of the range (0.75 - 1.349) that the car picks up. Hence, my disaapointment.
