How do I get this LM2 to log RPM?

[kidkrawler]

I have my LM2 installed, it logs everything I am telling it to log I have all of the channels and what nots picked, except RPM. The readout shows the RPM, but when I pull up the log file the RPM is flat lined. I am stressed out, need to be tuned by Tuesday and this LM@ has no online support and the instructions are useless. Anyone help me out?

[kidkrawler]

I tried to attach my log files, it says invalid type and wont attach.

[Intense RT]

You have to set it up in the software too. Connect a laptop to the LM2 and pick the channels basically. You have to read the instructions for full details. Other than that...I wouldn't be sure why.

When you get tired of it, sell it to me ive been wanting one for awhile.

when your in the logworks program. have you configured all you channels?

[BryanRT360]

this is what I do:

take the SD card out of lm2. Stick it into SD card reader, than usb port..

open logworks program (brings you to screen with all the gauges)

click file on top, scroll down to import file. find the file you want to import(listed as date)

I than configure the 5 channels I have set up. when the imported file pops up, click on the channels tab. than channel conf. wizard. than set all your values. hit appy, than ok and all should be good.

This sounds like the issue.

[Intense RT]

when your in the logworks program. have you configured all you channels?"configure"..yep, that what it is:biggthumpup:

Been a while since I messed with it and it seems I have to read the instructions every time.:D

[kidkrawler]

K, I now see the rpm values on the left side of the screen but the black line for rpm is flat lined across the bottom. I have it logging, rpm, o2, tps, map, iat and spark advance. They all show up fine on the lof files except for rpm.

[kidkrawler]

Also when I do the playback and watch the gauges as it occurs the rpm gauge never moves, everything else works fine.

[BryanRT360]

how did you set the protocol on the lm2? I chose automatic( i think its the first choice)

[kidkrawler]

Well if I can not get it to work tomorrow I will go to the dyno. And sell this thing.

Here is exactly what I did:
1- Installed the Logworks program onto a pc
2 - Connected the LM2 itself and let it install
3 - Installed the wideband O2
4 - Found an SD card that worked
5 - Went into the auto configure on the LM2 and picked what I wanted on each channel and set the priority, selected rpm then TPS then MAP then Spark Advance and finally ECT
6 - Connected the LM2 to the cig lighter and configured the O2
7 - Fired up the rig, saw the wideband start to read and then connected the obd2 plu
8 - sit on an empty street, hit record and let her rip, get through 2nd and stop the recording
9 - Pulled the file off, put it into the logworks program

On the hand held I see everything, rpm, wide band, tps, map etc. On my data log I see them all except rpm, it is flat lined across the bottom. Can I email my log file to someone? Every time I try and connect the LM2 directly to the logworks program it says no serial port available. I can only see my log on the playback on the hand held or after I transfer it off the sd card and load it. It is like Innovate half assed the software when they went from the 1 to the 2. This thing is overly complicated imo.

[BryanRT360]

send me the file. Btschroer@comcast.net

[kidkrawler]

Sent that

[BryanRT360]

list in order what you record.

do you have the rpm in the lm2 on or off? reason i ask is if you have it on it might fuck up the game, because thats for the when you use a clamp on the plug wire not obd2. not sure if that will mess with it though...

[Intense RT]

May have installed logworks but didn't see it listed that you set the channels up there. I wish I had it with me. There's a box with drop down menus for each parameter and I think in the same order of priority as on the LM2 itself. You have to scroll down the drop menu to each parameter to setup what is logged and in what order...again, if memory serves.

It's not bad if you do it over and over again, but it's not that bad. Can be confusing and complicated at first. I change things so rarely, like I said, I have to read the instructions each time I do make a change in the list.

i got his file.. looks like he has the the RPM on the LM2 turned on. when I go to configure that channel there are no options to change what it is. I'll bet thats the deal.. its recording nothing because he doesn't have an inductive clamp hooked up. I think it cancels the obd2 rpm reading

I have a faint memory of what you're talking about.

What I was talking about earlier...remember the screen with the different colored boxes that you can change the parameter recorded and voltage settings? I remember another one where there is like 8? or so drop down menus with a place to check a box out to the side. What was that?

I'm outta state and don't have anything with me to check.

[kidkrawler]

On the LM2 I went into the rpm option and did turn it on, because the first time I tried to log there was no RPM. I thought turning it on would fix it, but you are thinking that having the RPM turned on somehow overrides the OBD2 rpm output and makes the logger look for the inductive pickup?

exactly. try that, see if it works.

dont know what the fuck your talking about.

take the lm2

turn off the rpm function.

start truck

plug in obd2 port

wait till the obd2 values pop up

hit record. blip the throttle.

load into log works, set all the channels.

any problems send me that file... list in order all that your recording...

yup easy fix... so do it...:nana:

[kidkrawler]

I appreciate all of your help, I will stop by for lunch and try again, hopefully I am loaded up on a trailer tomorrow night heading for Moab. The first tune I got from Sean runs alot better then the one he just sent me so the data from the LM2 would be very helpful. I will report back this afternoon.

[kidkrawler]

OK, you guys are freaking sweet, I turned that rpm enable thing the other way and I know see rpm. However the scale seems off. I emailed you the new files, tell me what you think besides the fact that I am really rich!!!

looks like your lean for the most part.

Did you go WOT or did you ease into it? log another file with rpm and tps for me

[BryanRT360]

also were you driving when you logged that file? almost looks like you were in park.?

can you log A/F, Rpm, Tps
go WOT in first gear through just after it shifts into 3rd

and so you dont have to di it twice might as well log MAP, timing and IAT also

[kidkrawler]

That was in park, part of my front suspension is torn out till tonight I wanted to make sure I was logging right. Did you change anything to see the higher rpm? I thought it was only going to around 3500? I will log everything in a few hours and show it to you, thanks for the help, I'm going to have to send you a six pack!

[BryanRT360]

glad you got it worked out.. just make sure when you log you are driving...

Once you configure it you don't have to do it every time?

I did 6 channels on mine

1 - TP Normal Priority
2 - Spark - Normal
3 - MAP - Normal
4 - IAT - Low
5 - ECT - Low
6 - RPM - Normal

So will I have to do it every time or am I good to go? Here is my log for about 22 seconds.

I got my configured and it remembers just fine.

I tried it on Any_R/Ts computer but it wouldn't stay recognized. Weirdness?

Here's a LM2 question, does it only record one time? I tried to record and got nothing, I cleaned the sd card and hit record, turned it off, record again and got a file w/ no data.

I get the impression it only records one time and wont write over a file that's already there?

And What's MAF? is it air fuel? I'm set to record TPS, RPM,MAP, I don't see one that is specifically O2, I though there was last time I set it up.

Again, can't recall exactly all the setup procedures as I have to read it every time. Sounds like it's not connected (IE too many channels)...mine used to record 6 no problem and for no reason had a problem last year, called Innovate and they said try setting up to record only 4. For some reason it worked. Other thing is to make sure to follow every step of directions in the owner's manual file.

MAF is Mass Air Flow. Never noticed that. We have fuel injection that uses Speed Density to calculate fuel needed.

I'm only trying to record 4, it seems like afr should be automatic through the o2 sensor, and not even a selection in the obdII. Not really sure though, so maf is not something that is going to do any good right?

And you say every time you data log it would write new files right? Maybe I'm not recording right.

[RJ_Hythloday]

this is what I do:

take the SD card out of lm2. Stick it into SD card reader, than usb port..

open logworks program (brings you to screen with all the gauges)

click file on top, scroll down to import file. find the file you want to import(listed as date)

I than configure the 5 channels I have set up. when the imported file pops up, click on the channels tab. than channel conf. wizard. than set all your values. hit appy, than ok and all should be good.

list in order what you record.

do you have the rpm in the lm2 on or off? reason i ask is if you have it on it might fuck up the game, because thats for the when you use a clamp on the plug wire not obd2. not sure if that will mess with it though...

i got his file.. looks like he has the the RPM on the LM2 turned on. when I go to configure that channel there are no options to change what it is. I'll bet thats the deal.. its recording nothing because he doesn't have an inductive clamp hooked up. I think it cancels the obd2 rpm reading

Definitely worth a try in changing something there. I have a faint memory of what you're talking about.

What I was talking about earlier...remember the screen with the different colored boxes that you can change the parameter recorded and voltage settings? I remember another one where there is like 8? or so drop down menus with a place to check a box out to the side. What was that?

I'm outta state and don't have anything with me to check.

On the LM2 I went into the rpm option and did turn it on, because the first time I tried to log there was no RPM. I thought turning it on would fix it, but you are thinking that having the RPM turned on somehow overrides the OBD2 rpm output and makes the logger look for the inductive pickup?

I did 6 channels on mine

1 - TP Normal Priority

Holy crap, ok so it's finally been recording, but just like above I'm not showing RPM.

When you say configure are you talking about in the logworks I have to tell it what I'm recording in each channel right?

I've got channel one OBD RPM
Channel two OBD TP
Channel three OBD MAP
and the O2 sensor.

In logworks it looks like it thinks they are all afr?

I'll have to look around the menus on the handheld to find the enable rpm talked about above, this is so freaking frustrating.
I uploaded a .log zipped,

Everything appears normal on first pic. Second wouldn't work.

Somewhere along the line you should have been on a screen ...in the program, not the handheld, that has dropdowns for each channel logged. It would have given the chance to set the "priority" level too. Not saying that's your prob, but if this is something you haven't seen yet, that may just be what's holding you up.

Ok, found disable rpm in the handheld, still need to play w/ logworks, packing continues. Moving across country next week.

[RJ_Hythloday]

Alrighht. So here's where I'm confused. Do I connect the handheld to the laptop via usb and configure or just log and put in the sd card and configure using logworks?

[RJ_Hythloday]

Alright, so I think I've got the rpm recording and configuring logworks down, but now my afr is flatlined at 7.4. What gives?

This one the afr looks ok but I never got a chance to WOT, the other 3 sessions from today are all w/ out afr data.

http://lh6.ggpht.com/_3hJS1ehodtI/TIr7HOQnDSI/AAAAAAAAAS0/mmdygn1sYzE/s800/afr9-10-cruising.jpgFirst shot, I don't think it'll run at 7.4 and also don't see the purple line for afr.

Second shot looks more like what you should be looking at.

[RJ_Hythloday]

So Sean says I'm still not showing RPM, session one has 4 bars on the graph, session 2 only has 3.


Here's session 1.
