Ok, just wondering if anyone has tried the OBD1 Data Logging app for the Android on their phone for a Crome chipped ECU?

Reason I am asking is that I am soon going to dive into the Wireless logging scene and just wanted to ask who has had success and failures.

 

Didn't know there was a wireless datalogging app at all. Want to tell me how it works? Sounds pretty cool. Not sure how my P28 sends information to my phone. What hardware is required?

 

The app can be downloaded on the google play store (Honda Obd1 datalog). What I am working on is the communication between the ECU, Crome Pro and phone via bluetooth for a chipped ECU. Does not work with a stock ECU! The hardware right now is a hit, or miss since I don't have it yet (Still in the mail).

Heres the Video:

 

Not hit or miss at all if you go with quality components, but most people go cheap. Sparkfun has some reliable units, which is what I recommend for use with NepTune.

 

Im looking at the Cheaper $10 range stuff!

 

Then you'll get hit or miss... and part of that is the class of the bluetooth chip. That has a huge effect on power, range, and susceptibility to noise.

 

i use the app, it works. i have the electhouse usb unit which is about $20 on ebay.

I got lots of emails, and some people said my app is not working. Usually the problem is the bluetooth device. I only tested the elechouse device yet, but sometimes it need set up correctly. I don't know which other one works, and which not. I ordered some other cheap bluetooth device, and i will test it.

 

Cool thanks for contributing Peter.
Is there any future support to show what Map table cell your looking at for Crome / ectune?

 

You mean something like that:

 

I guess thats close enough.....

 

I got the bluetooth module to work today with the andriod app. It took a while to program the bluetooth since it was a HC 06 version and not an HC 05 like the one on Electric house....maybe ill add a review of it later.

 

I use and promote Peter's APP with the Elechouse Bluetooth adapter here in Puerto Rico and have not had any issues.

 

I've had pretty good luck with the bluesmirf chip in some projects that I have done, both for work and play.

The class of the chip absolutely matters, especially in the cabin of a car and more so if you plan on enclosing it in an ecu. The cheapo chips just won't cut it if you want reliable communication.

 

From what I can understand the communication tends to receive some noise every now and then causing the data to be displayed to jump to high numbers. I am not sure if its just the bluetooth adapter but much more testing is needed considering that its the same main chip but in a different circuitry, firmware and being tested on the bench instead of an actual car.

 

I need a bit more tester for 2.0 beta. If you interested, you need to join to this Google+ Community: https://plus.google.com/communities/...02651317095441
Then you can join to beta testing here: https://play.google.com/apps/testing...r.hondadatalog

New features in 2.0 beta:
- Crome QD3 datalog protocol (Crome Gold)
- GPS and G sensor logging
- New gauges
- Video recording and logging same time (You can use RaceRender2, to make overlayed gauges on the video. Sample: )
- The app make a summary file on the end of logging which contains Elapsed time, Distance, 0-100kmh (0-62mph) time, 0-402m (1/4 mile) time, Highest rpm/speed/boost, Average rpm/speed. This summary file can be uploaded to my website: http://www.linszter.net/linszterdatalog/

 

Perhaps I will!!

 

The new version is on the Google Play Store, now with Crome Gold (QD3) support

 

Very cool work man.

 

Hi, I wanted to know what configuration you did to the hc because I tried several and I do not find the problem of the datalog
