LogWorks2 is awesome, question for Logworks users

wow, Logworks2 is NICE. should have tried using this before buying EvoScan last week. oh well, i can still use EvoScan to clear engine code and HP feature.

here's the question. my speed and load is not matching up. what do i need to change in the channel config to correct the speed and load. it seems that my speed is showing up half of what the actuall speed is. and load is showing up more than 260% but EcuFlash table max out at 260%.

I have been messing with logworks also. Is there a channel you can choose for knock? I looked and didn't see on though

yes, there's a knock sum channel. it should be on the list when you start the OpenPort1.3 connection. it doesn't log as much things as EvoScan but all the import ones are there.

when you try to add a channel you must delete a channel if you are at ten samples.
its a little odd how it actuates but if you fiddle with it you will get the channels you want. the grayed out add and remove buttons are key.
as far as the original poster, sorry I have not tried logging speed, and load is for another day.
I have a feeling logworks 3 is a few days or weeks away.

I agree with you though, for basic logging it is easy and very well designed. On my laptop I get boost and afr along with the ten openport channels.

you might try the calc with 0 speed as 2.5 volts

The load you are trying to log is MAF based(OBDII) load and will not display as the calculated load in Evoscan . You will need to calculate the load after logging using the math library in Logworks2. instructions are in the link.

base on the instruction from that link, which approach to you think would be better, MitsuLogger or EvoScan?

I am using the version a few pages after that here:

http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/f...&postcount=125

Seems to work well for my use.

I like the graphing of Logworks over EvoScan. And EvoScan is about worthless when it comes to reading and clearing codes. It always throws false codes that mean nothing. Here is what you want for code clearing. It will report all the OBD required PIDs too!

I played with Data Log Lab a bit too and for $35 its one hell of an app. it will do your power and torque curves as well and its very easy.

MC(LoadAF;load;0;260) = AirFlow/RPM*852

so, with this formula, you only need to log AirFlow and RPM?

do you still use this same line in the xml
<datachannel id="#32" name="AFR MAP" selected="0" units="MAP" min="0" max="255" expr="x" type="0"/>

can you give me the exact code for the formular entry.

Sure thing.

I didn't put anything in the XML, maybe I didn't do it right, but it seems to be working well enough for what I need.

When you open a log file in Log Works 2, go to Tools > Formula Calculator

Then on the left of this new box you enter that formula. Using the proper variable names for AirFlow and RPM. After entering what you have above (don't forget the stuff in parenthasis) you can hit calculate and it will add it to your log. You can also click the add to math library so its always there. Thats it.

I am not sure where the 852 comes from, I haven't looked into it far enough. I'd like to see the formula Mitsubishi is using. As of 2005 there is a standardized formula that they have to use for reporting the PID of load to OBD. And thats what formula I will probably eventually use in mine, but it has some constants that I don't know right now and I have been too lazy to look into it. I'll post it up sometime when I remember to look it up

Hi,

Just as a tip: instead of typing in the formula you can cut and paste it directly out of the post above. Highlight it with your cursor in the post. Then hit Ctrl-C (copy). Then bring LogWorks to front, open the calculator, click in the edit window and hit Ctrl-V (paste). Presto.

Another method for getting load in logworks would be to find your 2byte load for your rom and then there is a formula you can use to log 2byte load instead of calculated load.

Now that would be a nice way to do it.
