Okay so I've searched and searched and came up with nothing. The problem i'm having is evoscan keeps disengaging whenever I try to log the external wideband. If I uncheck it it logs ok. Funny thing is when I test it with hyperterminal it works and brings up the AFR, and I have double checked which com port I select in evoscan which is the same one I select using hyperterminal.
Does it matter where in the list I have "external wb"?
Is there some additional piece of code that I need to add/alter to get this thing working. Anyone else encountered this problem?
Dunno if this info is needed but I'm using tactrix 1.3, evoscan 2.5, rom id 88590015

 

How did you guys fix this?
If it logs using hyperterminal then that means that the wires are properly connected right?

 

i use evoscan 2.5 and aem thru serial input . it work works fine.. i have aem on com1 and then on evoscan i have selected aem as wideband input. and selected the com1 port in evoscan and checked external wb input.. and it work.. as it should . if the evoscan open a incorrect com port for input it will give u error..

 

Did you select your wideband from the drop down menu?

 

Yes I did select the right port. Actually, when I plugged in the serial>usb converter it assigned it to COM 9. I selected the AEM wideband from the drop down menu and COM 9. When I unplug the adaptor I no longer get an option for COM 9 in the drop down so I definitely know its right.
Did you have to do any altering to the request or you just checked the box and that was it?

 

Tha its all I know to do.....I got a locals aem wideband up and running on evoscan, I used it to log when tuning his car.

I plugged in his serial cable, selected AEM from the drop down menu, selected the wideband com port and then logged?.

Did you go into device manager and confirm its indeed com port 9?

 

Yea I did check it...
I also logged that same COM 9 using hyperterminal and I got the AFR reading. Do you think it could be the serial to usb adaptor not compatible with evoscan?

 

thats what i was think if serial to usb adapter had to do something with evoscan. can u hook up directly to a serial port.

 

No unfortunately my laptop doesn't have a serial port, I might have to try getting a hold of one that does have serial or see if I can get a different serial to usb adaptor.
Do you think it could be something else though?

 

Send an email off to Hamish. As i understand some later versions of EvoScan have had problems with reading widebands.

if it is working in hyperterminal then the cable is setup correctly and the gauge is working so its just a matter of Evoscan picking it up correctly.

 

Yes it definitely is working in hyperterminal...ok I'll send an email his way right now, thanks.

 

I am also having the same problem with it not working with evoscan im useing evoscan 2.6beta11. Did you find anything out yet?

 

Have you followed all the steps as detailed in this thread?

Your computer probably doesn't assign it the same comport every time you hook it up. I know mine doesn't. If there's an option to open device manager to check comports under where you select your wideband do that. If the option doesn't exist go to control panel, admin settings (or something like that) computer manager, device manager. There will be a comports dropdown and you can see what comport is assigned to your serial-usb converter. I have to do this pretty much every time I log.

 

Ya I found out my problem was a bug it will start to log but just stop logging a/fs..... So im gonna have to wait till they bring a new patch out.
