ok seems to work fine thanks... once I spotted that I'd named the OBDLog folder ODBLog by mistake

also so far just a couple of short journeys, but will let you know if I sport any problems later.

the 12v value always seems to be 0, is that a problem my end, or something that isn't working yet?

also is there a description of all the values somewhere.

thanks
Steve

 

All the other values seem correct.. well the ones I can decipher the 12v value is zero both on the display and in the log file

I have attached the log file and associated txt file just in-case you want a look. (and discovered that you need to use zips and not rars)

could it be to do with the 115200 'Test only' version I am running, also not all the values are lined up correctly on the display.

and at present I'm just using it for logging or looking at the display whilst stationary, or letting my passenger have a look.. just out of interest how did you ballance the net-book on your dash?

thanks again
Steve

 

I have noticed that the txt log keeps saying
BUFFER FULL
so maybe it can't read all the data a 115200

I can set my device up to 500000 (8), but it refuses to be set to anything higher, and this seems to be quite common (although I seem to have lost the link).

thanks
Steve

 

Thanks, the buffer fulls have mostly gone, there is an occasional one, with one or 2 other errors so I've attached a log for you to look at.
This was just in ready mode for a couple of minutes, ice started up for a bit then switched off.

12v is now showing a value and a number of other things to do with the hv battery which were logged as zero now have values so looks like it was just related to the buffer.

ok another question, what screen resolution does this want. I finally managed to get my netbook to go from 800x600 to 1024x600 (driver needed updating) and it gets a little clipped at the bottom.

how about this.. seems a bit scary though

Yes, I probably will turn the car on 1st in future, I was just curious to catch the whole car startup, so yes probably best to ignore the beginning part.

possibly, I'm in the uk so I have a European version. 2008 TSpirit.

No not really a concern, just curious.

Thats what I though, thanks for all your pictures, interesting, although I'm not sure I'd be allowed to stick that stuff on my dash

here's a rather scary video of someone using one (or something similar). Not so much scay about the mount, but the fact that she's demoing it while driving.

 

Just wondering, Is there a way to work out at what rate the Ice is consuming petrol even when its in park?
thanks
Steve

 

thanks will do

sorry, I meant in the csv log, I can see mpg, but thats only really if I'm moving. I'm just trying to work out if I could calculate the total fuel used in a journey accounting for the ice warm up etc

thanks again
Steve

 

What are the logging capabilities of this? I had the previous effort installed on windows XP and noticed it looked like it logged at a 5HZ rate, but there was nothing beyond 1s intervals recorded in the time stamp so it wasn't clear what the timing of the recorded data points actually were. I am debating whether to install this to overwrite the Can Monitor program or not. It isn't clear what this does better from reading the features post here, however when I looked into more threads it seems this offers a lot more options. I just don't know how the data logging compares. I am using this in a hymotion conversion as well, the prior version seemed to work though.

 

Hi 2009
(I got boost from the libs directory v. the lib directory.)
When running priidash 20110911/ 2m, 115200, etc
The error msg I get is "Error loading shared libraries: cygboost_thread-net-1_43.dll (?):cannot open desired object file: no such file or directory."
My handwriting isn't the best but I think this is what I wrote.

Priidash_vc_20111021 runs in simulation but in normal I get no readings the final message is:

setting com state!
*

Both programs are running with 2M baud set and F:\OBDlog
It seems like I may need to troubleshoot my cygwin installation.

Yes. I just rebooted and ran it and got the same error message.
I hope you can help
Thanks,
John

 

OK
I ran xterm from cygwinx/xwinserver on the start menu.
Then I navigated in the window to the downloads/priidash20110911/priidash/bin and launched priidash2m. (This is the precompiled file right?). ..
the error message then was returned. end.
Thanks,
