logging pids

[aaronr]

I just up-dated from a v1 to a v2. I’m so confused on how to create new pids so the bbl can log them. So do I create new PID section under the *pls section or do I use existing one. I want to work on ve table using the bbl box to log it. I can't get my anlog AFR to show up. I create a section under of pids

*PSL,PSL_23,PSL_24

;Node PID Alarm (min:max:style:time*10ms:hold*sec)
;---- ---------------- -----------------------------------------
PCM, ECT
PCM, IAT
PCM, MAF
PCM, RPM
PCM, VSS
ECM, SPARKADV
ECM, TP
PCM, KR
PCM, CYLAIR_M
PCM, DYNCYLAIR_M
TCM, TRQENG_B

You can overwrite the ones you don`t want in
the section your controller is under.
See the PID descriptions.txt in:
C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8\Documents\Pid Descriptions
for the proper way to write them.

So how do i pick what i want. Please give ex.
thanks.

Here an example (my Options.txt file)...

Modify one of the 5 pid lists...

In each pid list add up the total channel count... the total channel count has to be 24 or less...

refer to C:\Program Files\EFILive\V8\Documents\Pid Descriptions to see how many channels each pid uses
(print Options.txt on paper, then pencil in each pid's channel count, then it's easier to add them up).

LS1B_A = 1999+ LS1 with AT.
LS1B_M = 1999+ LS1 with MT.

[joecar]

Oh, in my example, you can replace EQIVRATIO with AFR if you want AFR.

Can your sd card be bigger than 2g.

How do i get my anlog to work with my plx gauge??
I will be switching to rs232 when the chip get here.

Right click the PID for more info.
The analog setting for the PLX is:
AFR = {EXT.AD1}*2+10

So i would put this in my Options.txt currect.
How change my ECT and IAT to F*.

Goto almost the end where is says AD1 and AD2...

my AFR = v * 1.000 + 11.000 so my constants are 1.000 and 11.000

change yours to 2.000 and 10.000.

Also there you will see how ECT is converted to *F...

When you press ENTER on V2's keypad, the LCD displays these alternate units (as defined by these conversions).

your SD card cannot be bigger than 2G... if it is then I think anything above 2G is ignored...

How do get injector duty cycle bank one to show up?? (calc.injdc)
So is there a way that can show my ect and iat in (F) but still Map sensor in Kpa instead of psi? Can we flash tunes with the black box yet?

[joecar]

INJDC is viewed later on the PC... it can't be viewed on V2 yet.

To show MAP in kPa and IAT/ECT in *F, try the attached Options.txt (press ENTER while viewing log).

BBF: not yet, but Paul says soon.

[mr.prick]

FWIW
calc.pids can be selected after data is logged,
as long as you have the prerequisite PIDS logged before.

Example:
Log GM.IBPW1 & SAE.RPM then after the log is loaded, in the PIDS tab select CALC.INJDC1/CALC.INJDC2, the log will then replot.

[joecar]

That is correct...

when viewing a BBL log on your PC, goto the PIDs tab and select the calc pids...
this works provided the BBL log contains the calc pids' prerequisite pids.

I just need to know witch pid need afr on the plx gauge.
I'm trying to set my VE map to work with new plx gauge the converted to use the serial cable for the V2. thanks
