After spending days looking for a decent/free way to graph ECUTalk logs (without excel or datascan) I deceided a program was needed to convert ECUTalk logs to a more generic format. Mainly the time stamp which most LogViewers have difficulty with the existing format, they are now converted to the number of seconds from the start rather than a hhmmss format

I know NewKleer is working on adding this type of feature to ECUTalk, however I've been know 2 be impatient (:happy: 3 cheers 2 Peter for all his work :cool:)

Anywho, the converter is free to use, copy, share...

you'll need Microsoft VB5 Runtime librarys if ya don't have them

only known bug is with logs that span Midday or Midnight

WinlogView is available HERE

tried datalog lab?

http://www.dataloglab.com/

looks good but has a 30 day trial limit or $$$ ( can't get it to work with ECUTalk log file either)

I'm after a free/unrestricted setup

Cheers

Bump / UpDate

V1.1.0.0 is now available, the AM/PM spanning fault is now fixed along with a few others

hi Bundybear - I've been playing with this software myself. This software you've created looks rather cool. I work with maya an awful lot and I've got a basic way at present to read the ecutalk log .txt files into maya and then drive needles of rpm, water temp, timing etc.. as a kind of animation log.

my end goal is to use the same data to drive a 3d engine model. I'm still working on the model but it features pistons in motion and I'm hoping I can get it to display other things too like the sparks firing in the cylinder.

dl'ing your program currently and gonna give it a shot a bit later this evening (8pm in uk) :nyaanyaa:

cheers for sharing!

can it monitor the knock sensor?

I don't think so, although ECUTalk is not my software

see ECUTalk.com 4 info

I believe conzult will via custom registers

hey Anthony

had similar ideas myself but VBz just not up 2 the task. Would love to see it come to life

my end goal is to go the CarPC route with live stats (ECUTalk), so animated logs would be a cool addition

my prog basicaly converts the 12Hr time from the log file to an 'Index' and copyz the rest of the log line, simple I know but most of the graphic log viewers couldn't deal with the time format

are you gona release either variant to the eager public ??

Freeware is Goodware

Cheers Bundy

ok so ive updated ecutalk (see http://www.ecutalk.com) to have the extra 'Entry' column index but that didnt help at all with winlog, which needs an extra empty line up the top, which would make it invalid with datascan format. it doesnt even help with excel which was fine with the time entry as-is. so i dont think its any use at all?

    • CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System) has existed since the 80's. I'm looking into buying a Hummer H1 and they generally included it. 
    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
