OBD2 software with a wideband input

kinger · 04-12-2005, 08:42 PM

Is there any gadget, software, or otherwise tool that will allow you to plug in to the OBD2 port and pull all the information the port give PLUS hook a aux wideband O2 into to view A/F at the same correlation to the OBD2 inputs? ie 14.2 AF at 3600 rpm, 12 degrees advace, etc etc. Thanks

I'd look into the Full Throttle Scan Master and use it with a Palm or a Laptop. They're all over eBay for about $225. They allow for three more 0-5v hookups. I haven't used one yet, but I'll be purchasing one in the near future. BTW, I'm pretty sure it picks up what the ECU is sending out for timing, not what the motor is actually doing, so if you have a UTEC controlling timing it will log ECU timing (false), rather than UTEC/actual timing. Same goes for MAF voltage. You'll be seeing UTEC calibrated MAFv rather than actuall MAFv. You wouldn't have a problem logging both with a laptop because the UTEC uses Hyperterminal and the Scan Master uses Palm emulator software.

Someone might be able to chime in with more info. Like I said, I haven't used it, this is just how I percieve it to be.

ECUTEK deltadash.

You need something that reads the Subaru codes as OBDII will be too slow to be usefull. IMHO.

Both use the Subaru specific protocall, not generic OBDII.

Scan master w/two 0-5v inputs $224. Plus the cost of the WB ($275-$450)Usable on an unlimited number of Subarus.
Deltadash w/LM-1 WB $329+$349=$678. Limited to three Subaru vehicles.

What about the device from zeitronix?
It's installation is discussed on ScoobyMods, but not a great deal about what it does. Just a suggestion, as I have no experience with it.

Zeitronix makes wideband oxygen sensors and hardware that will also log more info with their sensors. It doesn't look like it will connect to OBDII and it certainly won't connect using the superior Subaru specific protocall.

A kit like that for data logging lacks all the nice little features such as fuel trims and a code reader that DD and SM have. It also requires you to buy more sensors.

Deltadash and Scan Master both require you to add your own wideband, such as the basic Zeitronix, LM-1, AEM UEGO, etc, to get everything in a nice little package.

DeltaDash already has support for the LM-1 built in... no LabJack needed.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the info. I guess I missed it while I was looking through the ECUtek website. I edited my post.
