Any ACD/AYC evoscan logging experience?
I'm curious if anyone has much experience using evoscan to to datalog the ACD/AYC ecu? What's peaked my interest in this is the ability to log the two g-sensors, steering angle, and individual wheel speeds. For the autocrossers and weekend track junkies, this would be valuable information to help improve lap times. I did a little digging through the factory service manual and online and it looks like the g-sensors can measure +/- 2g with a linear output from 0.5 - 4.5 V (Mitsubishi Electric p/n MAS1390P)
I'll update this as I start doing my own logging but if anyone has any experience in this area and has already overcome any issues, please share. With the recent interest in reflashing the ACD/AYC ECU, I would think this would be a tool to measure any performance increase.

I have the 1.3U cable from Limitless and removed pin9 per instructions from his website. I can connect to the AYC ecu but the data I'm getting isn't changing. I have USDM IX with only ACD so I wonder if that's the issue. From what I understand, the same ecu controls AYC and ACD but maybe evoscan isn't compatible with ACD only. Anyone with AYC been able to log any real data?
Also, if I try connecting to the ABS ecu, it just goes into a connect/disconnect loop.

maybe an issue with 'old' 1.3U cables (mine is 2 year old)

I have a trouble ticket submitted so hopefully Hamish can find some time to shed more light on this issue. I've tried v2.6beta7 on 64bit Vista but no luck there either. I read through this thread and don't think it's a cable issue.
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ec...s-pinouts.html
I checked for continuity on the pins in the cable and pins 1 and 4 are not linked. However, Pins 1 and 15 are linked. I'm guessing this is why Hamish suggested moving pin 1 on the car side to pin 15 but that didn't seem to fix the issue either.

Does this mean we would need 2 cables to log steering wheel angle and throttle position simulaneously? Has anyone just installed an aftermarket steering wheel angle sensor?

No, the same cable would be used to log the AYC ecu instead of the EFI ecu. However, us guys with ACD only are SOL since the only reply I got from Hamish was "ACD is different to AYC." I get the impression this is pretty low on his priority list. From what I'm seeing on this forum, nobody's having any luck logging ACD or AYC.

btw this will also enable us to activate the ACD/AYC pump to purge the hydraulic circuit of the ACD (& AYC).

I bought the "special" limitless cable for ayc, and it did not work, however, in subsequent disscusion with hamish we got to the point that my cable actually did not have the pins in the right position at all.. I am still waiting for an answer from him what to do..
limitless on top, normal tactrix on the bottom..
I think that grayw has had this working on UK cars....
