do you have any output captured from the serial port (e.g. in a HyperTerm or PuTTY window after playing with speed/parity/stopbits)...?

And I do apologize, for some reason I had understood it to be compatible at the serial port socket.
No biggie Joe. I have everything working fine with the analog inputs.
I fitted twin PLX SM-AFR Gen4, Bosch LSU 4.2 sensors with twin gauges a couple of months ago (with help !), currently use the 0-5v analog output to feed into a HPtuners MPVI
data logger...seems to work fine. I was hoping to use same way to connect to my Flashcan V2 when I eventually migrate to a EFILive tune. Have to say with my limited experience
the response times look very fast.
Stumbled accross this thread........are the analog signals really that bad ??
UK spec 2009 HSV VXR8 6.2 LS3, E38, HeartBeat Supercharger running ~9psi,1 7/8" long tubes, cat back exhaust.
Upgraded cam and springs of unknown specification, all I know is, it's a small cam with no overlap, suits the s/c.
ATI damper, LS9 twin plate clutch, 548rwhp. twin PLX widebands to twin gauges.
Currently running dismal HPTuners....NOW DUMPED !, Completed migration to EFIlive and slowly mapping it in.
628rwhp.....with a lot of tuner help
Not typically... we just like to use serial comms wherever it is supported (for various reasons).
i've got one in a drag car. it reads 1 afr leaner through the analog over the serial/guage display.
it came with the car when we purchased it, but wont be in it very soon.
Please can somebody point me towards the guide for setting up the analog 5v pids for plx wb's, specifically how to program the V2 aswell ?
Thankyou.

Connect 1st PLX to AD1+ signal and AD1- ground.
Connect 2nd PLX to AD2+ signal and AD2- ground.
Log the pids EXT.AD1 and EXT.AD2.
Select the calc pids CALC.AFR_PLX1/2 and CALC.BEN_PLX1/2.
In FVS2 device settings, checkmark the box to always include External Analog Pids.
Thanks Joe, think it worked out ok, although more fumbling than knowing what I'm doing
I had to remove some odd pids that it did'nt like, maybe that's because I still have the HPtuners 2bar custom tune loaded,
but at least I am slightly further forward. I can't see the BEN pids...are they to convert the voltage to the AFR ?
I have boost via plx and fuel pressure via aeroforce 150psi sensor to set up next.

On the PIDs tab, look at the right-hand column, it is titled "Parameter", click on the title (the word "Parameter") to sort alphabetically on that column...
then look down that column until you see the pids CALC.BEN_PLX1 and CALC.BEN_PLX2...
the BEN pids are the correction multiplier, to see their definition do rightclick->More Info on each of them (on the PIDs tab).
Summary: the AFR pids convert voltage to AFR; the BEN pids calculate the correction multiplier (to apply to your VE or MAF tables).
