    Default Black Box logging issues

    First post here, still learning and very much a noob!

    Reading the manuals and any info I can find, but cannot solve this issue.

    Using EFI Live v 8.2.2.254 / FlashScan v2 Bootblock v. 2.07.07 and Firmware v. 2.07.63

    TRYING to get the BBX screen to show standard / imperial values vice Metric, but it is NOT happening.

    Formatted the FS, Quick Setup and made sure to Edit Device Settings and change to Custom. Even tried the Enter key on the FS itself per EFI Live v8 and it STILL shows metric values in the display. Again, I am trying to get Standard values to display when doing BBX logging. I am not having an issue when viewing on the laptop reviewing data.

    How in the heck do you do it??

    Much appreciated for any info!

    Did you define Custom units for the pids that you want in Imperial units...?

    Post your Options.txt file (from BBX click Save and specify the filename).

    Dave K BBX.txtHi Joe,

    Thanks for responding! That simple sentence pointed me in the right direction, believe it or not!

    I assumed that if you go to (in v8) BBX > Quick Setup > Edit Device Settings > Display > Units that this was where you told it to display standard measurements by selecting Custom.

    Not the case, hence the post.

    When you stated above for the PIDS, it made me go look deeper in the Selected PIDS, right click the desired PID (in this case IAT), select Properties, mark Active in the Custom PID properties and hit Ok.

    Now it displays standard units when doing BBX logging.

    Also clued me in to take a look at the Options.txt file and I see where the differences are. I don't have the previous one, overwrote that one with this one that is attached, but I see the differences.

    I really appreciate the help!
