I'm trying to be able to log my NGK AFX and the pid is not valid. Is there something I need to do to make it valid so it will work? I've tried searching for this problem. The only thread that I found about how to make it work was this:

Thanks in advance!

Is it not valid after logging begins?
Sometimes a PID will have the red X thru it before a log begins but
will be valid once recording or monitoring begin.
{EXT.AD1} must also be selected and plugged into Flashscan. :grin:

EXT.AD1 was part of the problem. It now shows a reading on the scantool but it is not the same as on the NGK AFX box.

I have these pids selected:

CALC.BEN_NGK1
CALC.AFR_NGK1
EXT.AD1

Is there anything else I need for this thing to work properly?

Just make sure it is plugged into AD1. ;)

Thanks, it's plugged in. I think I have it figured out. I was looking through the gauge properties on the scantool and found that the "round to" box had a 1 in it. I set it to zero and it now seems to work although it is still about .50 different from the NGK box. Is this normal?

It may just be the speed of the signal,
it's pretty hard to watch both at the same time.
Remember the slope for the AFX returns 14.57AFR as Stoich.

Well, thanks for you help. I think i'm ready to log this thing.
