Help with logging oil pressure

[Harrismarine]

Can someone step me through setting up the pid to log oil pressure. LS1 411 computer.
I have searched and am still confused

Thanks Mike

Hi Mike,

See this post of mine from a while ago. I suspect you aren't running the latest software version as this was released as an update

Cheers,

Thanks Andrew, Done that. I still have no pid for pressure, I am missing something..

The PID just reports a raw voltage from the sensor. If you wanted it to be represented as a kPA measure (or other unit) you'll need to create a CALC PID.

I can't find the detail at the moment but I know it was something like; there used to be a kPa PID in the software which we used to calculate internally given a known voltage on the LS1 controller. As there are now many more controllers the actual PID is a voltage PID and the scaling is different between controllers and sensors. For that reason the EFILive software now provides the ID as the sensor voltage as output by the ECM.

I have GM.EOPS and CALC.EOPS but both are in voltage

OK, I have got as far as getting the pid. When I right click on it there is no info but when I right click on the engine oil pressure sensor voltage it gives me this.

Expression
V=Raw({GM.EOPS})/51
is NOT valid because:
Unknown parameter{GM.EOPS},at position 14.

PID value cannot be determined because
the following error would occur:
Expression not valid: Unknown parameter {GM.EOPS}, at position 14

Mike, what is your V7 software build version (do Help->About)...?

GM.EOPS was incorrectly spelled as GM.EOP in earlier builds of V7.

V7.5.6 build117, I did add the S as per instructions. Thanks for the help its anoying me now

Mike, can you post your calc.pids txt file so we can check for typo's.
