Default freelog datalogging thread

im about to start tuning my turbo civic using free crome for tuning and freelog to monitor afr's. at one time i was planning on getting the aem uego wideband, but haven't really found anyone who had much luck with getting corresponding afr's on the gauge and on freelog.

-if you log, or have ever logged using freelog, post your tuning success and if you were satisfied with freelog, or any problems you had and how you solved them. also include which wideband sensor you used and if the afr's from the wideband and freelog where the same.

im just trying to findout which wideband to get using freelog.
thanks, jordan

lol, no responses. I am using freelog and a aem wideband. I wish I knew hpw to get the gauge and frelog afr's to match. To the best of my knowledge my aem gauge displays about .5 afr richer than my freelog. 14.2afr will read 14.7 in freelog. Driving it tells me that the gauge is correct and freelog is off but I don't know for sure. Anyone know what to do so I can get it right? My best guess says that I should tune everything a little lean according to freelog. I find it really hard to tune my car to 15.2 cruising and 12.2 WOT but according to my gauge to are stop on. Very frustrated and need help.

I run crome version 1.5.0 and freelog 1.0.93 with no problems. my only problem is the difference between afr reading on freelog and with my aem gauge.

i got freelog to work perfect with my uego what i did took a little bit of time. I went in to settings then wideband table and adjusted it till my guage matched my afr in free log
i started with the voltage tables aem gives you and just tweeked it a little for freelog. it was like my afrs where .5 off

can you copy paste them on here. I am sure it will people in the future and deff help me. I tried to go off the uego voltage table but the table had like 40 boxes. I skipped some of aem's boxes and filled in freelog the best I could. It still didn't match. I'm pretty frustrated cause I have a lc-1 and it worked just fine. unfortunately I had to put it in my wrx for dattaloging reasons and the aem in the civic.

I had the same problem when I first tried to use freelog. I erased everything and reloaded it. second time I loaded it, worked just fine. still haven't had a chance to try the new wideband tables yet. I've just been tuning off the gauge vs .5 off on wideband.

how did you come up with these??
i'm having the same problem tried everything but no data capture hope this works. one more thing my wideband in freelog reads oppsite of of my lm-1. the lm-1 reads 13.9 to 16 and freelog reads 12.3 to 10.7 i tried switching some different in my volt and a/f

I got this off pgmfi along time ago, it helped me set up my aem on crome pro but should work for freelog to.

Getting set up:
- Get your car to idle a bit higher than normal to keep it from fluctuating the AFR (use the IACV slider or something else easy).
- Bring the car to a full warm so that the ECT and IAT compensations won't be affecting the results.
- Note your current fuel offset.
- Make sure realtime programming is enabled.
- Hook the multimeter on the battery terminals and bring the multimeter in the car so it's easy to read.



Set up the wideband table
- For simplicity, let vO2 be O2 sensor voltage in Crome, and let AFR be the recorded votlage beeing seen by the wideband.
- Note the current vO2 and AFR.
- Increase or decrease the fuel offset in marginal increments to get the AFRs to go up or down by 0.4~0.5. (Depending on your car and injector setup this could be a large or small change to get the results, just start small and work up from there).
- Note the resulting vO2 and AFR per fuel offset changes.
- Construct the table from AFR 11.0 to 16.5 (roughly 0.5V to 3.8V) --> if you have a 0-5V mod done on your ECU, which is highly recommended, go a little higher in the AFR range.
- It is recommeneded to do a few more readings around where you will be tuning the select ranges (boost 11.5-12.5, normal drive and idle, 13.5-14.5) for increased resolution
- Take the table you constructed in Excel (or Notepad, whatever) and put your results in the Options menu in Crome.
- Verify the effectiveness of your table by changing the fuel offsets and see if Crome matches the UEGO.
- Put the fuel offset back to it's original number (that's why we noted it!)
