Problems Datalogging with Uberdata.
 
I'm trying to Datalog with uberdata but with not much success.

It connects sort of when I plug the cable into my usb port com 4 becomes available in uberdata I set my com ports correctly but I get garbled data. I'll click the rpm box and it will flash the right rpm one time then it flashes back and forth from like say 1556 to 51 and just keeps doing it

I'm using the nokia usb to serial cable I'm using the prolific driver could that be the problem? do I just have the wrong driver?

I have it setup like this sheild conductor and the brown wire soldered into pin 1 of cn2 Orange goes to pin 2 for rx
and the red wire goes to pin 4 for tx.

I have my com port settings at
38400
8bit
1
none
1
advanced I just unclick the box.

I used the hyperterminal to confirm I had rx and tx. When I type it echo's back and I see it on the screen.

I know uberdata is bugy and is real picky about the order of how you open thing and stuff so I did things in differant orders.One time I was able to get rpm to logg somewhat ok. But I clicked another box and it went crazy again.

Thanks for any advice. If I had $150 I'd buy crome pro. But at the moment I'm practcally broke and all I need to finish my turbo is arp head studs a head gasket and a trip to napa for some oil water and vacuum lines and it's time to install. :6

Install the jumper J12 back in. You are seeing an echo. Uberdata's DLing works on half-duplex mode.

Actually I tried that already. Well at first I tried it with j12 in it didn't work so just trying differant things I cut it. But that didn't help and Ive read before that uber needs j12 because it can't handle full duplex..So any way I soldered it back in.

I dunno I'll give it a good look maybe one side is a cold joint or something.

From my experience with UD, J12 has to be a 0 ohm jumper not the resister that comes in the ECU.

Re: Problems Datalogging with Uberdata.
 
Maybe I screwed up agin then. When I put j12 back I just used a 10k 0hm resistor. I'll just jump it with a leg from another resistor and see what happens.

The stock part in the ecu IS A JUMPER not a resistor. The term JUMPER means zero ohms. The stock part LOOKS like resistor, but has a single black stripe that denotes ZERO ohms.

10K resistor won't work. The piece of wire will work fine.

Only made that comment because the P75 and P61 that I chipped both had what looked like a resistor in J12's spot, versus what you usually see as a jumper in a piece of electronics.

He's right to!.. I took ou the resistor and just jumpered it with a pice of the resistor leg and it works great now. Thanks guys!

glad to hear that that :y

I spent about all day today getting the Voltage A/F slope set right on the anolog out of my lm-1.
It's set dead nuts now I get the exact same reading from the lm-1 as in uberdata. I have it set like this.

A/F Volts
10.08 = 1.392
19.90 = 3.118


Uber is one glitchy fucker.
I noticed you can't save as and keep the same file name if you don't change the name at all the rom gets all screwwed up,It'll change the fuel tables that you changed to like -2134 or some ---- or just reverts back to what it was before you changed it. But if you burn it to an eprom you still get a cel as soon as you try to start the car.

but the cel will cycle off like normal if you just turn the key to acc. Data logging is pretty cool though.

Oh yeah before you go make a pull it's a good idea to check what the redline of the rom your using is. :1
7000 probably won't kill an f22a1 but it's further then Id like to go...MY big autometer tach and radioshack made shiftlight saved my ass!!

Have you tried freelog? Pretty nice.

HMTdmc 11-25-2006 02:26 PM

Re: Problems Datalogging with Uberdata.
 
Nope haven't tried freelog..I'll look into it. maybe I can use freelog and crome free. I'm starting to see that you pretty much have to have an ostrich-or a long completely free 3 day weekend to tune with just a burner.

imburne 11-25-2006 02:57 PM

Re: Problems Datalogging with Uberdata.
 
Yeah just sold my ostrich to boosted stinkynuts. But that combo will be more than fine. Go to sourceforge and find freelog there. you shoul dbe pretty impressed with it.

HMTdmc 11-25-2006 04:43 PM

Re: Problems Datalogging with Uberdata.
 
DAMN!! Im impressed yeah but over whelmed to..It takes alot off setting up doesn't it. It looks like you have to set the entire slope on every sensor.

what you are meaning about...?

I was talking about freelog Walter.

Should just have to set up the slope for the wideband.

I <3 Freelog+Crome Free.

Yeah I was outside messing with freelog in the car last night until about 1am. I figured it out you enter the figures for the slope in the wideband setting and make sure their the same numbers you have programed into the lm-1 anolog out and it works great..

How do you save and play back your sessions though?
