Without an XY display its about the best I could come up with in TP. And without the text I will forget my lefts from rights, and forwards from backwards.

lol I understand, everytime I look at the logs I have to look at which way was what from your email!

Do you plan to make this functionality available for retro fitting to existing loggers? I would like to register my interest

from what I understand it will work in at least any V2 logger provided to install like the picture and then just need a revised firmware and adx additions for the extra analog inputs.

from what VL400 said, the inputs are there, there just wasn't the room on the DB9 to add the wiring for them.

you could export the tunerpro log to CSV and import that into a mapping program? bit of a pain tho. be good to see all the engine data with a track map next to it when stepping through the data.

Yeah true, could certainly do that but the correlation of track position to data is what would make it super useful.

It can be fitted to existing logger V2, there are 2 spare analog inputs internally to the logger the board wires to. So the 4 analog inputs are still available to use externally (essentially now its logging 6 analog and 2 digital inputs in addition to the normal ECU data). I can fit a board if you are not comfortable soldering it yourself, I dont have any right now though. Will be adding the '+' firmware to the logger zip once its tested, so you could solder it yourself and flash in the firmware.


These boards are 0-3.3V (1.65V is 0G) - with the loggers higher resolution inputs its not a problem and you can still easily get 0.01 G. One interesting thing is the logger can be a spirit level in a pinch, may have noticed in the video that turning the logger 90degrees shows a positive or negative value that holds. Its 0.6G, so you can change the calc to show a rotational degree value. Vibration is still detected so cant really be used on a vehicle, was thinking steering angle, combined with lateral G force can calc under/over steer.

Very cool

never thought it was going to have so much useful info in the beginning

[immortality]

That's just bloody awesome.

You're doing much better than me - I installed a 3 axis accelerometer in my R-Pi logger a year or more ago, but the car hasn't left my driveway since then so this is about as exciting as my logs get

One day will get that Alfa boosting along to test out all the toys you have developed!



Added a screen that live updates moving the dot and showing the G values...
