I was told that it couldnt be done with the version I have, 7.5. Now I hear that its possible with the 8.1 version, im sure there are steps I have to take to upgrade. Is there a link to what steps need to be performed so I can do this?

I had a hell of a time making it work when I bought EFIlive due to Vista. I have never logged a run at the drag strip due to getting caught evertime with my lap top in my seat.. So, let me know if this is doable, Thanks.

For Vista, you must be the Administrator (all privileges).

First install both V7.5 and V8.1 from www.efilive.com/downloads.

Then upgrade your V2 firmware to 2.04.72 from C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5.

Then read the readme.txt from C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8.1\...

Be sure to fully understand this readme.txt first before proceeding.

I can all ready tell I am going to screw this up. Is that suppose to be a clickable links?

If you dont have the lastest build of 7.5.4.66 (actually .67, but dont worry about that one) installed then you need to download it again (or run the EFILive updater program).

Nope, those arent clickable. The first one is just the main page downloads section and the others are locations on your HD. :D

And even on my personal laptop running Vista Ultimate x64 as the only Admin I had to change the permissions, so double check that one.

OK.. everything went good. Updated to the 7.5.4.66Ok, now from C:\Program Files\EFILive\V7.5 flash firmware 2.04.72 into your V2.

Then when you finished that, install V8.1 onto your PC.

Then, re-read the readme.txt under C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8.1.

ok.. now I am right here but nothings going on.. The scan tool is just blinking 2 yellow LEDS so I am guessing its still in dead poll mode. But, I try to ubplug it, and plug it back in to get it out of dead poll mode and it just goes back to blinking. The directions say it needs to be out of this mode, but it just stays blinking.

You need the LC-1 serial cable and the FlashScan serial cable, with a null-moden adapter between them.

The LC-1 has a SERIAL OUT cable which takes the stereo jack;
The LC-1 also has a SERIAL IN which takes the terminator plug.

joecar
October 15th, 2008, 11:38 AM
Join the LC-1 serial cable to the FlashScan serial cable using this: http://www.sfcable.com/cable/p/30D1-C1-S.html

or buy a ready made cable from TAQuickness.

Well, a buddy came over last weekend with his hptuners (still learning how to tune with my EFIlive). We hooked up the LC-1 to his HPTuners using the brown wire off the LC-1 and a ground I tagged into the floorboard, both those wires screwed into a 6 or 8 prong connection that he plugged into his hptuners so we can get AF ratios... So, it looks like it will fit into the bottom of the V2.. Do you know what I am reffering too?

to see the analog inputs, you have to enable the external analog inputs in the V2 options (from the V2 keypad/LCD).

Your LC-1 came with cable that has a DB-9 on one end... you can see it in the pic: "LC-1 Serial Cable"...

the stereo jack plugs into the SERIAL OUT cable on the LC-1.

TAQuickness sells a cable that is already made up (no need for null-modem adapter).

Using the null-modem adapter I showed earlier makes connecting LC-1 -> V2 a snap, much easier than analog.

But, in the scantool, you will see the AFR (after you select the CALC.AFC_xxx pid).

This will be ok if you have zero ground offset... otherwise the serial input (using the null-moden adapter between the two cables) is best.

Do you see the Options.ini file under either of these places:
C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8.1\Programs
C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8.1\Config

Drag the Options.ini from the upper pane (one of those 2 folders) to to lower pane (Config Files tab).

Once you have done that you are ready to log (disconnect laptop, restart V2, on V2 select the PCM that is for your WS6 (LS1B_A for A4, LS1B_M for M6).

Jody,

Save the contents of the .zip and drag it to the Config Files tab under EE.

This Options.ini has 5 example pid lists for LS1B_A (LS1B = 1999+ LS1, A = A4).

When you goto "Select PIDs" on the V2 menu, you will see those 5 pid lists.

To do serial AFR logging from the LC-1, see this pic:

http://forum.efilive.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4046&d=1224114427

You need to join those 2 cables using the null-modem adapter shown, or you can buy an LC-1 serial cable from TAQuickness;

The stereo jack plugs into the LC-1's SERIAL OUT cable.

This will allow you to display the wideband AFR as a pid on your V2 LCD.

waterbug1999
October 17th, 2008, 11:05 AM
I have a wideband in the car so I can see the AF... But, I think you said it will just show Volts correct? But, once uploaded, it will turn into AF on the efilive "tune"?

joecar
October 17th, 2008, 11:26 AM
If your wideband is connected to V2 via analog (LC-1 brown signal wire, white/green ground wire), then you will only see the voltage on the V2 LCD (you will see the AFR when you view using the ScanTool).

joecar
October 17th, 2008, 11:33 AM

joecar

Oh no, I dont know what that means?Post one of your log files (use the Manage Attachments button)...

If your LC-1 is set to default, then in the EFILive software scantool you would be using the pid CALC.AFR_LC11.

joecar
October 17th, 2008, 01:42 PM
Jody, and others using the LC-1,

Try this Options.ini for displaying LC-1 standard default analog AFR...

First open the .zip file and save the .ini to your hard disk (overwrite your old Options.ini);
then using EE drag the new Options.ini to the Config Files tab, overwriting the old file.

On the V2, go into Edit Settings... and set A/D Pids to Yes.

Then during logging (pids are shown updating on the V2 LCD), scroll down to the bottom, you will see AD1 and AD2...
press the Enter key and AD1 and AD2 will change to AFR_WB1 and AFR_WB2...

-->> I haven't tried it yet, so let me know if it works or not.

Cheers
Joe

e.g.

- some pids take 1 channel and other pids take 2 channels...

In the ScanTool, goto the PIDs tab, click on the column heading Caption (so it sorts alphabetically), and look up each pid's channel count... you have to keep the total channel count less-than-or-equal to 24 for BBL.

Here is the file, if I did it right.

These were just the default PID's that were under A-> IBPW F1 in the V2. Ill try and change them up.. I have plenty of time as ALL the tracks closed up here.

well, after playing around with it, I can change the pids in this screen.. So, I guess it will let you change whatever was logged, which I am assuming 24pid's that were set under the default "A" IBPW F1 . pretty cool.

Change EQIVRATIO to AFR under PSL_A in the Options.ini file, and drag it to the Config Files folder (using EE)... those are 2 channels each.

;
; Node: Is one of PCM, ECM or TCM (use "-" for external PIDs).
; PCM = Powertran controller, engine and trans combined into one controller.
; ECM = Dedicated engine controller only.
; TCM = Dedicated transmission controller only.
;
; If you are unsure whether to use ECM or PCM, use PCM. PCM will match both ECM and PCM.
; The Node specified from which controller the PID will be retrieved.
; i.e. ECM-RPM v's TCM-RPM.
;
; PIDs: Is one or more "|" seperated PID names. The first valid PID will be used.
; Alarm: Is 5 ":" seperated fields:
; min: Minimum value, below which the alarm will sound.
; max: Maximum value, above which the alarm will sound.
; style: Is one of:
; 0 = No sound, No LEDs
; 1 = Low pitch
; 2 = Medium Pitch
; 3 = High Pitch
; 4 = Very high Pitch
; 8 = Illuminate LED 1
; 16 = Illuminate LED 2
; 32 = Illuminate LED 3
; 64 = Illuminate LED 4
; 128 = Illuminate LED 5
; Add Pitch and LED values together to enable audio and visual alarms.
; For example, for Medium Pitch and LED 4, use 2+64 = 66
; time: Time (in 10ms increments) for which alarm will be sounded.
; hold: Time (in seconds) for which the displayed value will be frozen (not implemented yet).

Something went wrong with your 2-3 upshift... it went 2-3-4 instead of 2-3 and then 2-4...

Yea.. DRKPHX and I were looking at that and cant figure out why we cant find a shift. We see the one at ~69mph but there should be another one somewhere.

- enable SerPIDs,
- set the wideband in/out type to Innovate.

Let me know when you have the cable.

It means you should be able to run high 9's or very low 10's.

It blew right by 3rd gear and straight into 4th... and it looks like it lugged in 4th (RPM did not rise significantly any more).

You might want to look at your WOT upshift MPH tables vs the WOT downshift MPH tables...
the 1-2, 2-3, 3-4 MPH values have to be sequenced in increasing manner, and
the downshift MPH has to be lower than the corresponding upshift MPH.

If it's ok, then post it if you want a review of it by many eyes... ;)

I bet your WOT 2->3 D0915 is less than WOT 3->2 D0930...

This would mean that it never shifts WOT 2->3 but jumps on to 4th.

I can see why your WOT MPH upshift points are all low, you're trying to control WOT upshift using RPM only...

This is fine, but the each WOT upshift point has to be higher than the corresponding WOT downshift point.

Your log shows your 1->2 WOT shift at 3.1-7.5 mph...

I think you can't set the WOT MPH values that low and all equal...

You have to spread them out a little, and make them in seqeunce...
i.e. in this order (increasing mph as you read down the list):
WOT 2->1
WOT 1->2
WOT 3->2
WOT 2->3
WOT 4->3
WOT 3->4

with each downshift being at least 5 mph lower than the corresponding upshift.

We have to analyze your log again so we can set those higher and still allow the rpm to control the upshifts.

Yes, try that tune...

in the tunetool, go:
Edit->Properties->Options
and click on Calibraion - Alternate (i.e. the one on the right),
click OK.


To see the differences, open the tune file, then go like this:
File->Load Alternate Calibration For Comparision
and browse to the old file;

Then do:
File->Display Calibration Difference Summary...
You can now click on any difference and it takes you to that table.

(Or see the 2 buttons circled in red in the image below)

While viewing the table, these 5 buttons circled in red let you see the new table, the old table,
the +/- difference, the % difference, and the absolute % difference:

Make sure to set all the throttle kickdowns to 100%.


Set the WOT up/down shift MPH values as shown in the _0002 tune file...

if it's not doing a particular shift, lower the WOT upshift MPH,
make the corresponding WOT downshift MPH lower than the upshift,
make sure nether of these goes below the parameters for the previous shift.

you may still have to experiment at the track and fine tune the WOT RPMs.

OK...


Let me ask you this, whats the pros and cons for having it like we had it? Is having teh proper gear show up in the logged data really that important?

You know why we turned the MPH down, so we can just tune by RPM and take out the extra variable. I know the car did not shift like what EFILIVE is showing at the track. If it did do that then there is no way I would have been able to run 10.70's.

Yeah, I find hard to believe you pulled most of the run in 2nd gear...

In a vac.mod. trans the PCM still controls the solenoids for shifting...
when you run, are you aware of each shift hitting (can you say for certain that it's not doing what the log shows...?

Hmmm.... (I'll have to get a picture of me scratching my head...)...

LOL... Its hard to tell its shifting (sound or feel wise) due to the shift extensions on the spray are very little.. The converter is not the best, so I am probably on the border of just blowing thru it.

I need to get a log NA and see how that looks.. I know when I have the cut outs closed, I can hear it, but I always race with them open..
I know for certain that if the car did act like the data suggests, it would have not ran 10.7's. More like a 15 and or a serious N20 backfire.

Hey Jody,

How's it going...?

Your LC-1 has power when the motor is running, right...?
Do a heater calibration and a free air calibration.

First do this:
- connect V2 to your PC and start EFILive Explorer (EE);
- on the bottom pane of EE, click on the FIrmware tab;
- it should show the versions of firmware and bootblock, tell me what they say.

Connect your wideband serial AFR cable from the LC-1 SERIAL OUT port to the RJ12 port on the top edge of V2 next to the USB port.
Plug the stereo terminator plug into the LC-1 SERIAL IN port.
Then you have to enable serial afr pids in the V2 setup options (navigate down into there from the V2 LCD/keypad).
You will then be able to talk to your LC-1 from V2 (to do a free air calibration, and to read the AFR and LC-1 status).

Send me your Options.ini file, it has now changed to Options.txt, I can transcibe the pids over.

Cheers,
Joe

Did not see that but, I did find the WO2 type, it was in unknown. So, I switched to innovate as that the kind I have. Ill see if that will work.

*edit*.. I got the AF to display on the V2, the numbers from my gauge to the V2 are about 1 off. Ill recalibrate the 02 and see if it helps. But, for some reason I cant get it to display on the EFILive Scan page.

says version is 2.5.20
and bootblock is 2.5.08Ok, you have to upgrade both software and bootblock/firmware...


1. install V7.5 from the above downloads;
2. install V8 from the above downloads;
3. Start->All Programs->EFILive->V7.5->Tools->Check For New Update and follow the prompts, wait for it to finish updating;
4. Start->All Programs->EFILive->V8->Tools->Check For New Update and follow the prompts, wait for it to finish updating;
After that, do Help->About in scantool (ST) or tunetool (TT) and it should say build 84.

Start EFILive Explorer (EE), goto Firmware tab, click About, it should say Build 44;

Then, still in EE Firmware tab, update the bootblock to 2.06.02 (checkmark Bootblock box) and the firmware to 2.06.06 in that order.

joecar
May 3rd, 2009, 08:05 AM
After updating the V2 bootblock and firmware (2.06.02 and 2.06.06) as shown above,

read this:

Configure FlashScan and/or AutoCal for BB logging:

1. Using the EFILive_Explorer program, select the [Config Files] tab page. The explorer view in the top half of the window will automatically display the folder continaing the *.pmm and Options.tst files.
2. If you have both FlashSCan and AutoCal connected to you PC, select the device you want to configure, by checking one of the FlashScan or AutoCal radio buttons in the lower right corner.
3. Click the [Format] button to format the Config File system in FlashScan or AutoCal’s flash memory.
When loading beta test updates, you SHOULD reformat the Config file system to ensure no incompatible files remain.
4. Click and drag ALL files from the Config folder in the top half of the window to the [Config Files] tab page in the lower half of the window.--> you only need LS1B_A.pmm and Options.txt.
Hint: hold down the Ctrl key (or Shift key) on the PC keyboard to select multiple files and then drag all highlighted files to the [Config Files] tab page.
The Config file system is only about 1Mb in size. If you attempt to copy too many files or files that are too large, then the copy will fail. Make sure the only files that exist in the config folder are files that were extracted from the downloaded zip file. Sometimes files from older releases are left in the config folder, they should be deleted.
Also, read this:

Using BB Logging:

Before you can log any data you must format the Data File system. The Data File system and the Config File system (that you formatted earlier) are kept in different areas of the flash memory. You can safely format one without affecting the other. You can only format the Config File system using a PC and the EFILive Explorer program. That prevents you from accidentally erasing the configuration files while "out on the road".

FlashScan supports two Data File systems: An internal flash memory chip which can hold about 2.7Mb of data and an external SD Card that can hold between 64Mb and 2Gb.

To format the internal Data File system, press Ctrl+Backspace, then use the left/right arrow keys to change the File sys: setting to Internal and press OK, then to format the Internal file system, select: F4 Options -> F2 File System -> F3 Format File Sys.

To format the SD Card File system, press Ctrl+Backspace, then use the left/right arrow keys to change the File sys: setting to SD Card and press OK, then to format the Internal file system, select: F4 Options -> F2 File System -> F3 Format File Sys.

You can also format the SD card using a PC card reader. Select the FAT32 (or just FAT) file system when formatting the SD Card via a PC. If you do that, you must create two folders on the SD Card:
\EFILive\V7\Scan (which will contain the BB logging files)
\EFILive\V7\Tune (which will contain the tuning files)

WARNING:
NEVER insert or remove the SD Card while Black Box Logging is in progress (or any other operation that writes data to the SD card), you will lose some or all of the data stored in the internal flash memory and/or data stored on the SD Card.
The blue LED on FlashScan’s keypad will illuminate whenever FlashScan is writing data to internal or external flash memory. Note: the blue LED will only illuminate when the LED Mode is set to “S” (Status).
1. Using FlashScan's keypad select F1 Select PIDs, then select the desired vehicle controller by using the up and down arrow keys, then Ok to select the desired controller.
You can also set up hotkeys to quickly select one of four preset PID lists.
2. Once you have selected a vehicle, FlashScan will return to the main menu.
Select: F2 Scan Tool -> F1 Data Logging.
Select F1 Record Data to begin recording, or F2 Display Data to display live data without recording.
You can also just press the 0 key to start logging.
3. Pressing Ok during data logging will toggle pause on/off, the same as using Ctrl+Spacebar in the PC based Scan Tool Software.
4. Use the up and down arrow keys to reveal more PIDs.
Use the Left and Right arrow keys to scroll up and down a page at a time.
(Hint: When held down for more than about a 1/2 second, the keys will "auto-repeat" just like a PC keyboard.)
5. Pressing F1..F4 and Ctrl+F1..Ctrl+F4 will insert the notes 1 thru 8 into the recorded data.
6. Pressing Enter will toggle between Metric and Custom units.
7. Pressing Ctrl+Enter will toggle between small and large text display.
8. Pressing Ctrl+DownArrow, will toggle “inverse screen” on/off. Inverting the screen can help visibility in direct sunlight.

How do you recal the O2 from the V2?First, do heater cal:
- remove sensor from LC-1 module and power up for a few seconds, then power off;
- insert sensor into LC-1 modules and power up again.

After updating the V2 bootblock and firmware (2.06.02 and 2.06.06) as shown above,
on the V2 LCD/keypad go F4 Options->F1 Setup->F1 Edit Settings and set the following:

Ser PIDs -> YES
COM In -> Wide-O2
COM Out -> Wide-O2
WO2 Type -> Innovate
WO2 Format -> Both
WO2 Data -> AFR & EQ

Then, On V2 menu, go F2 Scan Tool->F1 Data Logging->F3 Display WO2 and select the controller;
then press the power button (circle with vertical bar, overlays the zero key) and answer Yes;
make sure sensor is in free air.

Just one more "consistent inconsistency" from Microsoft. First they created a folder with a space in thename "Program Files" which broke 99% of applications that relied on the fact the filenames don't (and should never) contain spaces.
Then with Vista, they created a folder called ProgramData to augment the Program Files folder. This time no space. So now we have two folders that are designed to "work together" but one has a space and one does not.

What were they thinking? (were they even thinking?)

Jody,

[red = do this one time]

Ok, now connect V2 to PC (for power);

On V2 LCD/keypad navigate down into setup options, select the SD card, and format it; when done, go back to the opening menu.

Then on PC, open EE, goto Config Files tab, click Format (formats the config space).

Then drag these files from upper pane (PC) to lower pane (V2):
- LS1B_A.pmm <--- means: 1999+ LS1 with A4
- Options.txt <---- the same one you copied

Then, goto Scan Data tab, and drag the 4 dtc files from upper to lowe pane (useful for interpreting DTCs).

Then exit EE, remove V2 from PC.

[green = do this each time you log]

Now goto car, ignition key on, connect V2 to car.

If you haven't done this already, or if you want to change pid list do this:
On V2 display, go into Select Pids...
It shows various "pid lists" (i.e. named lists/groups of pids),
Select one of those (e.g. LOOP or TRANS).
Press OK one more time.
Press the ZERO key to start logging.

When finished logging, press CANCEL two times, remove V2 from car.

Connect V2 to PC, Start EE, goto Scan Data tab, drag log files from lower pane (V2) to upper pane (some folder on your PC, you may want to change to a different folder).
In the lower pane, you can delete the log files.
Exit EE.

Using scantool, open those log files.

On the V2 for "select PID list" what do I select? I see there is an LS1 99+ Auto.

But, when I go into option, its doesnt show what PID's are in the LS1 99+ Auto. It just has this.

The new Version 8 "user friendly" black box logging setup software is almost ready to be released, hopefully this weekend.
I recommend downloading it and using it for black box logging setup once it is available.

Look for it on our downloads page here in the next 24 hours:

I remember last year that the names matched in the "options" file and the V2.

So, I could set this up and use it. which is IBPW in the V2 and select it.. How do I know what group is what in the V2 when the names dont match?

So how do you tell what is what?? Im getting ready to go back to the old shit.

joecar
May 10th, 2009, 07:19 AM
Did you do this (2 steps: copy file to folder, then using EE drag it to Config Folder):

Copy the attached Options.txt to your folder C:\ProgramData\EFILive\V8\Config
then using EE goto Config Files tab and drag it from the upper pane to the lower pane (with V2 connected).Did you have V2 attached to your PC when you did that...?

On V2 goto the Select PIDs option, you will see a "list" of PID lists.

Each PID list is a group of pids that will be logged if you select that list.

Its not strictly necessary, but if you do uninstall and delete the two folders, then your new V8 install will be cleaner and ther ewill be no "old" files hanging around to confuse you later...

On XP:
\Program Files\EFILive\V8
\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\EFILive\V8

Jody,

Have you figured out how to use it...?

Did you program V2 with firmware 2.06.07 using the old EFILive Explorer...?

Then, on the Scan & Tune display (your post #207 above) follow this:

Hints:
- On "LLY Manual" rightclick->Properties and change its name to "LS1" "Trims" (for example), and select the LS1B_A controller;
- Uncheck the other names and click the red minus button to delete them;
- Click on PID Name to sort by pid name,
- Select some pids, click on the double left arrow button to add them;
- Watch the pid channel counter below (if it turn red you have too many pid channels);
- Click the up and down arrows to arrange the V2 display order of the selected pids;

Rightclick on the next empty controller slot and name/create another pid list (e.g. "LS1B" "Trans")...

FInally, click on Save , and then click on Program (V2 has to be connected to PC).

Remove V2 from PC... you're now ready to log

No, if you set up the V2 options to include serial inputs, then V2 should already be logging WO2AFR1...

V2 can't log BEN1... but when you view the log in the scantool, you can select BEN1 (and save the file to permanently include it).

You will also have to edit your BEN map to use BEN1 as data instead of BEN_LC11, and save the map with a new filename.

BEN1 is derived from WBO2AFR1 and AFR.

When you connect your V2, Windows should ask you to install the USB drivers.
You need to install the V7.5 or V8 software (or both) then you should tell the wizard you "have the driver disk" and browse to the folder:
\Program Files\EFILive\Drivers\EFILive\Win-2K-XP-Vista
Windows should install the drivers from there.

If windows does not ask to install the drivers, you can manually install them b right clicking on My Computer and selecting Properties. Then Hardware and click on [Device Manager].

Look for FlashScan V2 in the Universal Serial Bus section and right click on it and select Update driver.

If it is not under the Universal Serial Bus section, check in other sections for "unknown devices" then if you unplug FlashScan and the unknown device disappears from the display then you know that is the FlashScan device. Plug it back in again and select Update driver.
