EVOSCAN and LC-1(LC1) question
I have an LC-1 and it works just fine with logworks but I need it to work with EVOSCAN.
The values that EVOscan logs read like this(idle values).
4.8265
4.8314
4.8412
4.8461
4.8559
4.8706
4.8902
4.9
4.8951
4.8804
Any idea's?
Yes it is set up to LC-1 and the correct com port.
Yes I searched.
Thanks in advance.

The LC-1 sends a 'type' with each value. Typically, this is lambda (AFR), but when the sensor is out of AFR range the measurements switch to O2. Also, the type can be status or an error.
I actually explained this in detail here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...6&postcount=14
My understanding is that Evo4Mad has never implemented all the types. That is, he assumes every value is AFR. So it is possible that the LC-1 is reporting something else (O2, error code) and the value is coming out whacked.
Another possibility is he may be miss reading the AFR multiplier in the header. You could connect the LC-1 to LM Programmer and check what the fuel type is set to (LogWorks honors this as well, but also allows fuel type to be overridden).
FWIW, you can also log ECU data into LogWorks from the Tactrix cable. I don't know if that helps or not.
Good Luckk,

Thank you for the post. I will try it and let you know. What is odd to me is that the LC-1(LC1) works just fine in logworks, but evoscan won't read the value. I am going to try what you posted and post the results here.
I do log with the tactrix and logworks and absolutely love it. I am eagerly awaiting version 3.
Is there a way on logworks to export the data to excel or csv etc the way that evoscan does? That is my goal.
Thank you,

Make sure you have the LC-1 selected and the correct com port ( i know you said you had the correct com)
Sometimes I forget to select the wideband and put it on LM-1 Or something and get all sorts of funky readings.
Also, where are you getting our LC-1 out from? The serial cable or an analog output?
What you could consider doing is making a serial cable using one of your analog outputs and setting it to the LC-1 range or LM-1 Range and using that.
The problem is not likely to be software, but rather to be the LC-1 brain.
I have had issues with the LC-1 going bad before and giving stupid readings.

Logworks has everything I need. I have since stopped using Evoscan.

I use an LC-1 now. So what will Logworks read with only an LC-1? You can't get calculated load right?

I'm really confused. You're saying, if I plug in my tactrix as well as my wideband. Then logworks will log everything the evoscan will log simply by selecting what I want in Logworks?

I have played with it and its very nice, I don't have an Innovate in my car so I haven't really used it to its full potential. Funny that I own one, but bought it to write the Mitsulogger software about the exact same time the plugin was announced.
Currently you have two options, Logworks and Evoscan to log with the LC1.. In the near future, Mitsulogger will also be able to log from any device that Innovate offers that works on their serial chain. For me getting it implemented is a personal challenge because their protocol is fairly complex and makes for an interesting task.

When you install LogWorks you will get another folder called 'Extra Devices', which let's you use the plugin to log any MUT requests, or even OBD, if you wish. There is a xml file which you can add to the same way that you do today in EvoScan or Mitsulogger.
