Default Wideband datalogging question re ECU pins and wideband

Hello,

Uberdata has worked great for me for over a year and I have been running flawlessly with 550cc injectors until recently but I came across a good deal on some larger ones and seeing as I am building a turbo motor over the winter I decided to upgrade sooner, rather than later. I was dyno tuned with Uberdata 1.66 but only at WOT.

After I installed the injectors I had 2 BAD stumbles at 2000rpm and 3000rpm. Obviously this is because of the lack of part throttle tuning and the huge injectors so I bought an Innovate LC-1 this weekend to try some datalogging.

The LC-1 has 2 analog outputs which can be programmed. By default analog 1 simulates a narrowband and analog 2 is a 0-5v wideband. I have a 93 Civic Si with a 95 GSR motor and ECU. I hooked up analog 1 to pin d14 and analog 2 to pin d10 like I have read many times. I burned a ROM with the ost2 version of Uberdata since I also picked up a Moates Ostrich. I disabled closed loop and the O2 heater in the ROM and the car runs exactly the same as before so I went to do some street tuning.

The problem I have is that my A/F values were reading incorrectly - about 9 too low and the values went up instead of down as the A/F got richer. I have an Autometer A/F gauge and it was doing it's Xmas tree thing like it should and went rich when I was in boost like it was tuned for but the laptop would go from 7.x at idle to 10.x in boost.

Obviously I was getting a narrowband reading so I programmed the LC-1 analog 1 to be the wideband out and voila - it works perfectly.

My question is - why did I have to switch the outputs on the LC-1? I have read several places where they say to run the 0-5v output to the ELD pin (d10) and the 0-1v narrowband to d14.

I posted this on the uberdata forum but, as you know, it is kind of slow.

im guessing the d10 is for the 2nd o2 sensor. on a p28 you just hook up one output to d14. maby your lc-1 was programed backwards lol. i use a lm1

There is only 1 input for the O2 signal in an OBD1 ECU...any signal you send to the ECU has to be through pin D14

maybe you read somewhere about someone logging a separate input, but thats not general practice

D10 is ELD (electronic load detector), if you manipulate the code, it can be used as another input that can be logged...but this isnt something that is built into Crome/Uberdata so you need to know how to program assembly to do this I would imagine.
