Sending speed signal to Dash pro

[stevel48]

I have a speed signal from a Toyota MR2 gearbox VSS going to DI 3 set as LR WS on a plug & play ecu. I am able to see on the runtime values the correct KPH & MPH values.

I am trying to send the MPH value to a Dashpro via CAN using the driven wheel source under "chassis and body" as the parameter. I have tried a few other ways as well but it only seems to send the KPH reading.

I know I could send it directly to the Dashpro's default speed channel which in turn converts it from KPH to MPH but I want this to remain a GPS reading to help me calibrate the ECU speed signal. 

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks

You could put the kph to mph conversion into your CAN multi and divider (i.e current multi x6 and current divider x10)

To elaborate on Vaughans comment, the CAN data is always sent and received in the native metric units with the designed in native resolution and offset for each parameter.  If you want something different output then you do that using the multi/divider/offset.  This will mean using a custom stream rather than the fixed preconfigured Dash2pro stream.

For some examples read the help file page:  G4+ ECU Tuning Functions > CAN > Data for CAN

Thanks for responding and explaining this to me guys.

 I had half thought it could only transmit the kph value regardless of what I did but convinced myself otherwise.

Regarding the multi/divider/offset I think I have got that sussed just need to test it out tomorrow.
