highlighting tables in SCAN & TUNE simultaneously

[joecar]

Erik has a good point... you can add link pids to cal_link.txt by adding a comma in front of each new pid...

Add new link pids if it makes sense to do so.

[joecar]

For example, in my cal_link.txt:

;Closed Loop Mode
B4107.ROW=SAE.MAF,GM.MAF,GM.DYNAIR


(all three of those pids have units g/s)

So I can log any of those 3 pids, and if the scantool Data tab shows the same units for those pids as the tunetool table axis (B4107 in this case), then you should see the linking cell/crosshairs (if enabled in the tunetool Edit->Properties dialog).

Note: if you hover the cursor over the tunetool table axis, you will see all the link pids for that table.

There is nothing wrong with those replies but could someone be kind enough to post step by step instructions to set this up right... I'm feeling extra stupid today :(

Sorry, and thanks!

A. In tunetool:
1. go Edit->Properties->Scanner->PID Data Links and checkmark both items.
2. go Edit->Configure Display Proprties, select all rows (ctrl-A), do rightclick->Metric, then click OK to exit.
3. close tunetool.

B. In scantool:
1. goto PIDS tab, select all rows (ctrl-A), do rightclick->Metric.
2. close scantool.

C. Adding extra links to a table
In cal_link.txt, if you want to add extra links to a table, edit the line for that table...

e.g. If you want to ass GM.DYNAIR to this:
B4107.ROW=SAE.MAF,GM.MAF

then add it like so:
B4107.ROW=SAE.MAF,GM.MAF,GM.DYNAIR

Use Notepad to do this.


Now, after capturing a log (containing some ink pids), open the log in the scantool, position the cursor on the chart, open the tunetool, go to that table, you should see the table axises highlighted to match the scantool pid values at the cursor.

Im having a problom getting TLIQ on my diesel to highlight? It is not showing a highlighted cell

all my other tables seem to be working right, I switched them to metric in the scan tool and metric in the tune tule as Joe Car posted previous and still nothing?

any help would be appreciated.....perhaps i need to switch something for that certain pid?

Thanks Simon

Which pid is it...?

And that pid is one of the axis's for which table (id)...?

Does that table id appear in the file cal_link.txt along with the pid name..?

I think you also have to start one from the other. Start the scan tool and then start the tune tool from the Flashscan menu of the scan tool or vice versa. If you start them separately I don't think it will work.
