Logging with the (Beta) Standalone Tactrix Cable Logger (No More Computer!)
#35
Trying to get logging of AFRs through the standalone logger working.
I've read that the LC-1 is only supported device that works at present, but I've a LM-1 with same bosch sensor as LC-1, are the analogue output values different between the two models? I thought they outputted the same range of voltages and the LM-1 would work.
This is what it spits out to logcfg.out when I have it running
02: type=inno
: name[type,8] value[inno,0,0.000000]
03: ; log from an innovate bus via the 3/32" jack
04: ; currently the LC-1 is the only supported device
05: ; in the "inno" case the parameters are already pre-defined, you just
06: ; need to reference them by name so that they are included in the log
07: ; output. note that these parameters won't become valid until the LC-1
08: ; has been calibrated and the sensor is warmed up.
09: paramname = inno.afr
: name[paramname,16] value[inno.afr,0,0.000000]
10: paramname = inno.lambda
: name[paramname,16] value[inno.lambda,0,0.000000]
--- log config dump ---

logging interval will be 100000us
and no logs whatsoever.
Is there something I'm missing or expecting the standalone to work when it never will. I assumed the LM-1 would work fine as the analogue output can be hooked up to a guage as LC-1 can ie similar outputs.
Here's my logcfg
;----------------inno----------------
type=inno
; log from an innovate bus via the 3/32" jack
; currently the LC-1 is the only supported device
; in the "inno" case the parameters are already pre-defined, you just

; output. note that these parameters won't become valid until the LC-1
; has been calibrated and the sensor is warmed up.
paramname = inno.afr
paramname = inno.lambda
Any help assistance appreciated.
Thanks.

Try that^^^

Thanks,
Still nothing though.
The outputs are both voltages and can be programmed to the same range.
From LM-1 manual:
As factory programmed the first output simulates a typical narrow band oxygen sensor. The
second output is programmed to output between 1.0 V for an AFR of 10 (gasoline) and 2.0V for
an AFR of 20. This allows to connect it to a digital voltmeter or panel meter (0.2V input) to show
directly AFR. Other curves of course are easily programmable
From Lc-1 manual
The LC-1's analog output 2 is factory programmed to provide a
linear output between 0V and 5V for an AFR of 7.35 to 22.39. Any other linear output range
between 0 and 5V can be programmed.
Thought it would have worked

Does it log anything at all? like RPM,Timing, etc.
If not did you make sure you updated your OP2?
Reason I say this is if I remember right, if you don't update your OP2 that is what your output log looks like..
Try update it again. Make sure use "beta" ECUFlash version to do this on.
here is step by step.
Step by Step Instructions:
0 - NOTE: This is for the BETA release of the standalone logger. It takes some playing with text rather than a shiny GUI. It's difficult to predict the future, but I imagine that this logging ability will be simplified and made much nicer to setup.
1 - Download the required "beta" ECUFlash version. The most updated beta version will be in the first post of this
http://forums.openecu.org/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=4319,
but the direct link to the version I used when this was written was here
http://mail.tactrix.com/ecuflash/ecu...0_win_beta.exe
2 - Install it, accepting any agreements and driver installations that pop up.
3 - Plug your Open Port cable into a USB port, start up ECUFlash.
4 - Run the Help -> Licensing to force a firmware update of your adapter. Once completed, you can close every open window.

Beta version and firmware upgrade was performed, and i went through the steps again. Still no go.
But it does log rpm parameter and value and I get columns in the csv file for inno.afr and inno.lambda but no values, just zero's for both innos.
Code:
time RPM inno.afr inno.lambda 16.04 750 0 0
Have test both analogue outputs of the LM-1 and both are outputing voltages in the ranges I would expect for the ranges I have programmed so at least I know it should be working.
It might be a total DOH on my behalf

LC-1 analogue outputs both have there own jack, one each for each channel, is that correct?
and rather than connect a "stereo jack" to the standalone logger it requires a "mono" with only the analogue 2 channel connected?
I did have a stereo jack wired with both channels, and I tried to hack it to be a mono but still no go, maybe a proper mono jack will solve the problems.
If anyone can confirm if the 2.5mm jack to fit Standalone logger needs to be the mono type????

Hi,
Managed to pick up a mono jack and attached the anologue output #2 from LM-1 to it.
And I've got a value logged in the .csv for inno.afr but as you can see below its a constant value of 128 throughout the logging session and this .csv is definitly when the sensor is warmed up and reading AFR and lambda readings on the LM-1 screen.

Scratching my head![Confused](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/confused.gif)
Could someone answer as well why this line is important in the logcfg.txt file. Nothing at all is logged without it:
type=mrmacan
I've attached my logcfg.txt and logcfg.out for the above log. I would love to get this working![Help Me](https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/images/smilies/help.gif)
