Standalone Tactrix open port 2.0 Datalogging

[Chris@Rvengeperformance]

The openport 2.0 cable supports an amazing feature. You can insert a micro sd card into the device and with the appropriate setup it will automatically output log files in the root folder.

The main thing you need to get started is an appropriate logcfg.txt in the root folder of the micro sd card. Insert the micro sd card into the tactrix openport 2.0 and then plug the openport's usb cable into your computer. The sd card will now show up as a drive letter, this is how you will add the logcfg.txt and retrieve your logs later.

There are many options in the logcfg.txt file, but below I have a very simple one that will play fairly well with Greg's chromed mods, namely support of wideband logging and the 2 byte load logging.

Thanks to a poster on geekmapped I had a good start by using a evo 5/6 file. It uses similar logging and parameters to us. I modified the file to point to a few of our specific parameters. The o2 parameters have recently been discovered to not be named correctly, once the new evoscan data files are released I will edit the code below to reflect the changes.

There is one special thing you need to do. Evoscan support logging 2 requests IDs at the same time for one value. This is in part how the 2 byte load logging is possible. Unfortunately I am not currently aware of a way to do this in the logcfg.txt file, so what I have done is logged request 2 and request 3 seperately and I use excel to combine them with this formula:

=((I2*256) + J2) *5/16

where I2 is request 02 column and J2 is request 03 column.

Then you'll have the option to start logging when you want:

conditionrpn = TPS,10,>
action = start
;

I have mine set to log all the time by starting at 10% or above, but once my tune is more solid I will consider increasing this to a higher value to keep from logging constantly.

Please let me know if anyone has any ideas or changes to make. You can add parameters to your logcfg.txt as you see fit.

I am a noob at working on these things, but thought I'd share this data because it did take me a while to put all this together and the standalone logging is extremely useful. I have tested this on my car, but not extensively, so if there are any errors please report. Keep in mind the cable will not log standalone if it is plugged into your computer at the same time.

; sample logging configuration file for openport 2.0
; must be named logcfg.txt and be placed in the root directory of the
; microSD card inserted in the openport in order to work

; this sample logs using the MUT-II protocol over the K-line, which works
; for many mitsubishis, including the EVO 8 and 9

; you can also set an OBD pin to a voltage, ground, or a high impedance state
; the first number is the OBD pin number, the second number is the pin voltage with the following values:
;
; 8000-18000 : voltage in millivolts for OP2 Rev C and earlier
; 5000-25000 : voltage in millivolts for OP2 Rev D and later
; -1         : set pin to high impedance (default state)
; -2         : pull pin to ground
;
; keep in mind that if you are applying a non-zero voltage to more than one pin, all of those voltages
; must be the same

; the following setpinvoltage sets OBD pin 1 to ground, which is needed to enable logging on older Mitsubishis
; it is commented out as it is not needed for newer models (e.g. EVO 8/9)
