Hey all, I have an LFX (GM V6) swapped RX8 and am running both the Mazda ECU (to run gauge cluster, EPS, fuel, etc) and the GM ECU (to run the engine). I have an Aim EVO4S logger which only has a single canbus interface which is connected to the GM canbus. My goal is to collect the Mazda canbus' inf...

Good ideas! I'll implement them and test tomorrow. Thanks.

Interestingly the Haltech CANBUS protocol sends data at different rates. So using the modulus method, i made it so different functions are updated at either 50, 20, 10, or 5hz so that i could match the Haltech protocol and also put other things in more sensible update rate bins. This seems to work, ...

Looking at the ShiftX2 API, there seems to be a value that isn't set in any of the demo code, brightness scaling. It's in the "Set Configuration Parameters Group 1" section here: https://wiki.autosportlabs.com/ShiftX2 Does this value determine the brightness of the LEDs when in auto-bright...

Why not just use a $60-80 Amazon Fire HD tablet? I have a Fire HD 8" and its great.

Hi, We just released 2.13.5 firmware which offers 20% more Lua memory than 2.12.0. If you haven't, give it a try to see if that makes a difference. Also, you can post your current script here to see if we can optimize it. You're right, it should be a first class feature in the system. I think Shift...

Hello, First, what is the LUA memory limit (fw 2.13.5) and how can i measure the utilization of my script in order to compare? Is the memory usage a realtime memory thing or more of a storage thing? I ask because LUA optimizers seems to simply remove whitespace and comments. This script does a few t...

This isn't optimized or fully verified, but it seems to be working with a 50Hz update rate. I'm using the Haltech V2 canbus protocol. In the Solo DL 2 i simply select the Haltech as the ECU canbus protocol and voila. function sendHaltech() local rpm = getTimerRpm(0) l...

I'm also running into memory issues again now that i've added some canbus sending stuff. I'm using LUA minifier as well. (https://mothereff.in/lua-minifier)

There's really no reason to have all this ShiftX2 clutter in our scripts being that its standard Autosport Labs hardware.

Hello, I'm curious about how to make my sending of CAN messages as robust as possible. I notice that I occasionally get fail warnings which are triggered when txCAN() returns 0. I'm sending data at 50Hz (a send function is running with an onTick() at 50Hz) with the CANBUS set to 1mbps. How should th...

I'm interested in using an AnalogX as an "analog to CAN" bridge for connecting to an Aim Solo DL. Has anyone done this? Will the AnalogX just start broadcasting out of the box?

Thanks

Great, my issues were with 2.12. and it seems marginal so this should fix it. Thanks

Hey Brent,

I often which i could check what a max temperature was while out on track. It'd be cool if there was a small numerical display inside the dashboard gauges that could be set to record min/average/max gauge values.

Thanks,

Hi Brent, any updates on this? My ShiftX2 still crashes and goes nuts about 1/4th of the time which i believe is due to memory capacity issues. I'd love to get it out of my LUA script.

I have a RCPmk3 setup with several sensors and working well. I would like to send all of the data to an Aim Solo DL so that the Solo with log it and i can use AIM RaceStudio software for analysis and for comparison with other people running Aim hardware. Aim seems to support various CANBUS protocols...
