f**k working today

From what I know, you can't store more than one map in the ECU, I think Hamish carry laptop containing both 98 oct and E85 tune and transfering via PFC datalogit.

I'm sure Hamish will correct me if I'm wrong.

data logit wont work on a mac i dont think... fek..

go kill yourself kadir.

Can't switch tunes on PFC, need Data Logit or FC Hako - Paul will tell you more about this, or Google it. Be surprised if it doesn't work with Mac. Or just shell out $200 for a small/cheap laptop...

Lub jou long time Aaron

Yes. Just beat my PB at the Island from April by .5 of a second after being set back by a traumatic crash in October. In an exhausted state as well!

Now down to 1:46.3 oooooooh rah! Only ten more seconds to go

Congrats, maybe it was me and the supplements

Yeah, I think one of these macbooks with intel core can run mac/windows xp.

Might be a option.

BTW, is this at Dromana on the pics?

yeah you need winblows to run datalogit

and fc hako is a cable only solution, so you use the fc hako cable with datalogit or apexi's software

again all windows based

you could buy a crap old dell lattitude laptop off ebay for 200 with a true serial port and run win98

many people do that for car based serial connection thingies (i sold my datalogit kit with a dell win98 laptop)

cool thanks..

i can install windows as a secondary system on the mac..

will i need the datalogt module to use it? or is it just a pfc to usb cable??

[PENGUYEN]

If not aaron, you can buy my 10" eeepc for like $200. Rather keep a shitty laptop in car than a mac...

[paulr33]

yep you can try running it inside an emulated windows

as long as it can speak to a serial port it should be fine

datalogit expects a serial port, and doesnt understand usb

so as long as whatever you use, appears as COM serial port, it will work (or should)

datalogit is software and a cable

fc hako is a cable

datalogit is software and a cable

depending on what software you try to use, will determine what cable you use

or vice versa

if you have an apexi legit cable, you must use their software

if you have datalogit cable, you can use datalogit

if you have an fc hako cable you can use any software

[Count Grantleyish]

Paul, which software use USB cable? Cos macs only have USB port.

[PENGUYEN]

Have firewire too dont they?

[Count Grantleyish]

Yep

[paulr33]

grant

as long as it (the pc or laptop or mac or windows or linux or solaris or beos) can speak to a serial port it should be fine

datalogit (and the others) expect a serial port, and don't understand usb

so as long as whatever you use, appears as COM serial port, it will work (or should)

datalogit ships with a USB cable and so does FC hako

but all that this cable does is provide a USB serial port

datalogit and apexi fc pro etc don't know native USB speak

they just assume its a COM serial port and hope for the best

[Count Grantleyish]

I see I see

Shut the f**k up kunce
