Will ScanGauge II work correctly in Prime?

congrats!
at this point in time, i think not, but i'm sure it will, hopefully by the time your prime arrives.

 

Mine works, but I can't get it to turn itself off properly... I can get it sleep once the car is off, but it then it will also sometimes turn off while traveling like normal on electric only. Alternatively, I can get it to stay on even when the car is electric, but then it won't turn off after I turn the car off.

 

thanks, maybe i'm remembering black market tech stream.

 

you're probably right, I have that black market techstream, The latest Prius it will go to is 2013 PIP

 

They updated the version to 4.50EF and you will need the Prius Prime fix. Ask them for the tire pressure Xgagues.

Check out this thread. I think they are offering free upgrades until end of year. It is sent in to a particular person's attention, IIRC.

EDIT: I just realized it is USA only. Sorry.

 

Side question
Would this update also know to tell the ScanGauge to go to sleep when I turn off my Prime? Or would it just stay on anyway if I use HYBRID comm mode as it does currently? I have something like version 4.2-ish...I'll check again later

 

It fixes the "COM" mode which works perfectly. I was using "VOLT" but it was marginal as it would sleep while driving.

Just checked I currently have 4.42 by LinearLogic.

 

Just make sure you get the software upgrade and also the Prius Prime 'sleep' fix. I would recommend asking for the tire pressure Xgauges.

Hi All,

This is James DeLong, and I'm one of the engineers that works on the ScanGauge. As
bwilson4web has stated, we do have a new firmware that appears to fix the sleep issue it had on the Prius Prime. Anyone who has a ScanGauge and a Prius Prime can send it in for a free update since it's to address a bug. Just sent it to:

Linear Logic LLC
ATTN: James DeLong
2222 S. Dobson Rd
STE 800
Mesa, AZ 85202

Just include a note indicating that you have a Prius Prime and we'll update it to the latest firmware. We also have XGauges for the individual tire pressure/temperatures which we can pre-load as well, so if you'd like that just include that in the note as well.

Anyone outside the United States that needs this update can message me directly here and we'll work out a way to get the update to you.

If anyone has any questions, just let me know!

 

Any possibility of a future, flash memory recording and dump?

Then we could stop having to video the display and enter the data from the four fields.

James DeLong, I have just ordered a new ScanGuage 11 since I can't find my original ScanGuage that I had for my old 2012 PIP. when I receive it from Amazon I will ship it out to you for the update.

 

Hi James. Good to see you n the forum.
The main thread for the ScanGauge TPMS updates is here. You might make a post there for the non-USA folks and others looking for info.

 

It's not possible with the current hardware, but if/when we update the hardware in the future it's something we'd like to add if possible.

Sounds good! If you mark it to my attention (James DeLong) it will get directly to me. I try to have units updated and on their way back the day they arrive.

I'll be sure to do that.

Finally, I plan on working on XGauges for the Prius Prime in the near future, and I'm curious to hear if there are any specific gauges that may be useful to monitor with the ScanGauge on the Prius Prime. I'm happy to hear any suggestions and I'll do my best to see if they're possible.

 

Remember you asked:

TOTAL ENERGY

1. engine power - very difficult because rpm and torque need to be captured and a calculation. Either HP or kW works for me. In effect numbers for the power-flow display to and from engine.
2. traction battery power - hopefully the battery controller provides both volts and current in one response, it is quantitative power-flow arrow values. I'm OK with either kW or HP.

THESE TEMPERATURES

1. battery temperatures
2. transaxle temperatures
3. 12V temperature

BATTERY MODULES

1. highest voltage and module ID
2. lowest voltage and module ID

The power ones are hard since there is no guarantee of getting both snapshot from the controller(s). The temperatures support health and status. The battery modules are health and status.

GOOD LUCK!
Bob Wilson

 

Good list. Here's a start on it:
