doninphi Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 So I bought the tablet listed, yes I know you'll say its not dual power, but I thought I'd give it a shot. I'm not fussed about bringing it in to charge etc... So the software runs, I've got a cable to convert the USB down, but it doesn't seem to connect, are there specific baud rate and connection settings I should try? Thanks. Phil.

doninphi Posted February 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 Tried literally every setting. Nothing.. I'll wait till my better cable arrives to convert the USB output of the ECU. And try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamw Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Im assuming first the ECU is wired to a car and powered up... Incorrect or just junky USB OTG adapters is the most common problem I see with tablets. If you look in windows device manager under ports COM & LPT you should see a Link ECU listed in there when it is plugged in. If not then you have a connection/cable issue. doninphi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doninphi Posted February 13, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2020 Yesssss. Turns out the OTG splitter cable was what it needed. But needs power and data in to see the data connection. Odd but works. No charging while data yet but apparently I can edit this in the bios Super cheap setup however which is ace. Not too large to be on the dash and a bargain.

dx4picco Posted February 18, 2020 Report Share Posted February 18, 2020 Its here! Is there by any change a way to display both AFR and Lambda on the pc link? I am aware of the units thing, how to swap from lambda to afr. I like to tune in lambda values, but I would like to have the gauge showing AFR while the app unit is lambda for the rest. In the picture I was in AFR for the whole app. In the end I would like to have the pc link in lambda and only this dial gauge in afr.

Adamw Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 No, sorry not possible. Keyboard shortcut is "U" which may help if you didnt know that. You could set all the other pressure/temp/speed units the same so they dont change between metric/imperial and only lambda changes when you hit the U key... dx4picco 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dx4picco Posted February 19, 2020 Report Share Posted February 19, 2020 Alright, thx for the tip! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doninphi Posted February 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 I cant seem to find boost to display. Well done on the other bits. Is MGP your boost?? Manfold gain pressure?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dx4picco Posted February 22, 2020 Report Share Posted February 22, 2020 Yeah MGP is my relative manifold pressure relative to atmospehric. It makes it a bit easier to read during short glance than absolute MAP itself. And then factor 100 to get a reading coresponding to a bar unit, thing that I am used to read like on any other boost gauge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dx4picco Posted February 25, 2020 Report Share Posted February 25, 2020 I did the bios mods to supposeldy got the OTG + charge going. I can't seem to get charge going through the Rii cable. Have you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doninphi Posted March 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 No I've not. How did you get to the bios?? I've not managed that yet! Did just get my MGP display done tho. Thanks to you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
