    Default Link ScanTool to TuneTool Data Logging

    ***Edit*** Update #6.1 Jan 9th, 2012 update
    Inside Update #6.1: Added the support for the following tables: Transmission Tables

    Note: Jan 31, 2012
    Disregard the linking feature in the Boost Fuel Limiter table F0502. It is linked incorrectly and should not be used a reliable link to ScanTool Data logs. Update soon to come.

    Ok, after downloading and following the instructions, you will be able to view what your data loggs are doing in the TuneTool. (provided that your log has the PID's [and in same units] needed for the table(s) you're wanting to view) For instance, if you want to view you Main Injection Pulse, open your data log in the scantool, then open you tune in tunetool, select what ever table (Main injection pulse in this example) and press play in the data log and watch a grey highlighted cell move around in the tunetool table and 3D graph of what the ECM is actually doing. See attached pic.

    Now this will be an ongoing process and updates, some from me when I get time, and some from EFILive when they do as well in Update Releases. Most of the tables are supported, but not all yet.

    Here goes:

    Click cal_link attachment>Save it to:>My Computer>Local Disk (C:>Program Files [(X86) if 64bit OS]>EFILive>V7.5>Configuration>Highlight "cal_link" text document>Save>Replace existing copy

    **Edit For 64bit OS instructions** (Hopefully this will make it easier for these folks with 64bit OS)
    If you do have a 64bit OS like I do on one of my computers, after saving the document, Open it in the "Downloads" window that it just saved in, then Save as: to the instructions above: My Computer>etc.>etc.> in the left lower window.

    That's it! Now do as instructed from above and enjoy the next best thing in data logging since sliced bread.

    Enjoy!
    -Andrew

    Supported tables: F0505, F0508, D0502, E0002, E0024, E0033, E0036, E0039, E0008, D0505, E0063, E0084, E0087, E0090, E0093, E0066, E0069, E0075, E0081, E0078, D0508, F0502, F0519, F0517, F0518, E2503, E2503, E2504, E2500, E2501, E2502, D6264, D6267, D6273, D6258, E0262, E0051, E0054, E0057, E0060, E0259, E0280, E0283, E0286, E0289, E0393, D0782, D0781, D0771, D0774, D0777, D0790, B7511, E2567, B4524, B4526, B4522, B4532, B4534, B4520, B4561, B4512, B4514, B4557, B4516, B4518, B4559, B4501, B4504, B4551, B4506

    I tried this...had a couple of issues.

    My rail pressure never moved and my rpm didn't either.

    I looked at duration, rp was 180mpa

    Timing rpm stayed at 620rpm.

    I can for sure see this bring helpful...

    Thanks for the work!!

    Make sure the pids in the scantool have the same units as the linking pids on the table axes in the tunetool.

    Can you please list the specific table(s) (ex. E1234 or D0123) so I can see if I have supported the particular table yet and/or troubleshoot it.

    Thanks,

    Adding to joecar,
    Also make sure you data logged the PID you're trying to view in the Tunetool. For instance, when viewing Timing Base Table for Main, make sure your log has Commanded Fuel with Balance rates PID (CM.CMDFUELB shown beside the Unit value in the table in Tune tool) selected as well as Engine RPM (SAE.RPM)

    And I have not supported ALL of the tables in the TuneTool yet.

    Happy Logging,

    Andrew

    SAE RPM isint avail in my PID list..I have RPM B but no SAE....

    I 'll look more today to see what I am doing wrong.

    Don't be discouraged if everything doesn't work. I'm continually gonna be adding tables and refining the file to hopefully contain all variations of a PID so that it won't matter if you logged an SAE rpm or a CM rpm for example. I'm also on a weekend family vacation right now up in the mountains so I'll get to it when I can.
    When I do, you'll see the original Post edited with an Update.

    Thanks,

    Les, don't beat yourself just yet. Later today I will have an update that will support all the variations of the PID's. So it won't matter if you logged SAE.RPM or CM.RPMB etc etc...
