Default Vista, LC-1, Serial to USB cable

What version of enginuity logs LC-1 data with vista? Should I run it as XP 2 or admin or something? I am using a converter cable from serial to USB and 774 doesn't work. 702 works sporadically but goes between 0 and correct sporadically

774 is the version which has the plugin for lc-1. it's probably a conflict with vista.

There was a glitch in this version I think that requires you to check, uncheck, and then recheck the LC1 in order to get it to start logging. At least this is the problem I have with XP and that version. There may be an issue with the USB to serial adapter as well. I recall there may have been problems with certain brands.

Good luck

Josh

Default I will try that

thanks I will try that. I heard there was a glitch but still had my xp laptop until recently. I have a good serial converter so I think I should be ok. IT has worked in the past with a different version just sporadically.

Does anyone know what brands of serial-usb adapters work? My LC-1 is on the way and I need to pick one up.

The check, uncheck, and recheck LC-1 workaround fixes the glitch.

This has worked great for me, ~20 with shipping.

Not sure if it ships with drivers, or if you need them, but they are on gwc's website.

I hooked up my LC-1 and I am getting the Error 1 code. Says the cable is bad or the sensor. I bought 2 LC-1's, one for my wrx and 1 for the STi. I tried both bosch sensors and i get the same code.

Is it possible that this is a wiring issue? Or is my LC-1 cable just bad?

THanks

Error 1 is for a shorted heater circuit, do both sensors work on the other LC1? Other than the slight possibility of two bad sensors, I'd check your wiring. All the grounds should be soldered together, then grounded (preferably to the block, although mine worked fine on the chassis). Also, if you're using the LED, check the polarity.

I only have the LC-1 hooked up on my WRX. My STi isnt here right now.

I ran a ground from the battery to a distrubution block and grounded everything to that, not soldered, its just a 1 in 3 out connector.

I did the same for the power.

Got my plug to work with the install disc that came with it. What you have to do to install is, don't let it autorun run, stop it and view the file on your disc. Right click on file and select properties click on compatibility and select to run as XP SP2. Then double click file to start install and just folow instructions given.

Radio Shack drivers do not work correctly under Vista.

Keyspan makes a Vista-compatible unit that is very nice. It also has the screw-in connections for the serial port, so you can solidly connect the Innovate cable to it without fear of it coming loose during a tuning session.

http://www.keyspan.com/products/usa19hs/

I think I paid $35. Works perfectly with my LC-1 using Enginuity. Works perfectly with my LC-1 and LM-1 using EcuEdit.
