how do you transfer or create a Pid from 7.5 to BBL

[scottcmb]

I have a E38 system and like using BBL but PID ""Calculated Air Flow-GEN IV (GM.DYNAIR_LS2)"
is not in my PID list for E38 but is in my list of pids in 7.5 and am able to use it when logging using 7.5.
Is there a way to transfer that pid from 7.5 and add it to my list in BBL? or if not is there a way to create this pid for BBL? if so could someone out there give me good instructions on how to do this?

Thanks guys
Scotty

Hi Scotty, you could try the BBL pids AIRPERSEC and MAFSD.

The equivalent PID in V8 is MAFSD

For PIDs that have had a name change between V7 and V8 software, you can look up the name changes in the sae_generic.txt text file under the section heading "*BBLV7"


Or if you want to create a calculated PID to do it for you...
The relationship between airflow (f) in grams/sec and air mass (m) in grams/cylinder for a V8, 4-stroke engine is:
m = a*15/rpm
so if you know air mass (E38.APCYL_DMA) you can create a calculated PID for air flow as follows:
a = m*rpm/15
which is written as "{E38.APCYL_DMA}*{SAE.RPM}/15" in the calculated PIDs file.

I am attempting to setup my Flashscan to scan for all the things in this thread (Using a serial Wideband Innovate LM-2 Sensor and digital gauge):
http://forum.efilive.com/showthread....in-single-log)

1. I made a PID selection and saved it in V7.5, but I don't know how to copy it over to the Standalone BBX to make a log. I've done it using V8 but don't know how to do it for the Calc.VET

Any help would be great.

2. Also can I log LM-2 as a serial wideband without actually connecting the gauge to power and a ground, or is it required?

Thanks
