Do you have the terminator plugged into the serial in connection of the LC-1 unit? Are you sure that you are connecting to the LC-1 using the serial out connection? The serial out connection is the unmarked one.

How do you have it wired up?
Do you have the 6 or 7 wire setup?

If your not using any of the output wires how are you using the LC-1? Are you running two O2 sensors. OEM narrow band to run your ECU and the LC-1 wide band for logging AFR's? I'm not familiar with this sort of setup.

I had mine hooked up with the LC-1's yellow wire set up as a stock Honda analog signal and it was connected directly to the D14 pin of my OBD1 ECU. The brown wire was set and connected to my XD-16. I had no problems hooking my laptop up and reading both signals. I was reading the wide band signal that was going to the XD-16 through logWorks2 and the supplied 2.5mm stereo to DB9 serial cable. At the same time I was also reading the narrow band signal from the ECU in the Crome dataloging window.

What do you mean by RTP. I think of an RTP as Real Time Programmer...ie an Ostrich or some other hardware device used to communicate between a PC and the ECU.

What are you using to tune your ECU?

Some software will allow you to use alternate Pins on the ECU to make full use of the voltage range of the wideband Sensor. That way you could get rid of the stock O2 sensor and hook up the LC-1 as your only O2. You would set up the yellow wire as the stock Honda analog signal to ECU pin D14 (OBD1). Then hook the Brown wire up to an open ECU PIN (ELD-D10) and set it up in your software as an Innovate LC-1 wide band input. This is the way I will be setting mine up next.

Someone that has experience with NepTune RTP will have to chime in.

Here is what I found just from a few minutes using the NepTune RTP software.

I downloaded NepTune 041808 and I found that if you look under edit/preferences there is a logging tab. In there it has a box to select wide band O2 logging and a few options for what ECU pin you would prefer to use. For some reason the Innovate LC-1 isn't an available option in the drop down. But you are able to add your own and it's corresponding voltage:AFR data.

what are your ecu pins then if that is the case are they + or - so i know what wire to hook up from the wideband

Analog out 1, Yellow wire = Stock narrow band signal going to D14
Analog out 2, Brown wire = 0v=7.35 AFR to 5v=22.39 AFR going to one of the following ECU pins; D10(ELD), B6 or D12 (EGR Lift Input) Set these values in LogWorks2 on the Analog out 2 tab.

It's up too you witch pin you choose for the brown wire signal. B6 would be the choice if you are planning on using both your ELD and EGR lift sensors.

That is what I'm trying to tell you, You don't need LogWorksw2 if you set it up through your NepTune RTP ECU.

That's the wiring configuration that I just posted. It's all going through your Neptune RTP chipped ECU. It will allow you too see the full range of AFRs from 7.49 up to 22.39 by using the additional settings in the logging tab of the NepTune RTP software.

Have you familiarized yourself with the NepTune RTP software yet?


Here is the tab you are looking to enter your Innovate WB O2 information into.

i have tried a few thing but nothing really, anyhow couldnt tell if it did any good or not, i am new to this but willing to learn, i will give the wiring a try when the rain stops and i'm not working. as soon as i get it to go the way i need it too then i can rent/barrow a laptop to give tuning a shot
