Wait theres an update?.....I meant I was doing it your way until theres a update released that gives me all the PID that I need.

It has never worked.

I was able to reproduce what you are seeing. I was told this is fixed in the new version of livelink that is currently in test. Unfortunately I do not have an eta on when it will be released though.

 

[Blivit]

Yes. I saw data from all 8 gauges.

It really sounds like it wasn't started or stopped correctly at this point. I ran through a few different procedures on our test bench and could not reproduce this. Which configuration file were you logging from and what is the firmware version on your device?

 

[Ryan2289]

We pushed out a minor update but it is unrelated to your needs.

I do not recall, are you setting all of this up while connected to a vehicle or only connected to the device through usb?

Connected to a vehicle and laptop with manually entering the strategy code you provided. And selecting the PIDs that I need.

Maybe you could make a video how to do this properly? I was not using any configuration file. Just selected the gauges and started logging.

If you have a specific list of items you want to log (configuration file) that you have created using livelink, you have to load that file to the device using livelink and the export dlf/dlx button. Once that file is loaded to the device, you can then log on the device only using that configuration file. If that file is not loaded, then as you have seen, you are only presented with the default list of on device configuration files.

I'm trying to do this now. I have .cf4 file from Torrie, I can open it in LiveLink and I can see all the items that will be logged. Now I want to transfer this to the device using the Export DLF/DLX as you said, but every time I press this button, I get "Device mismatch. Please check device communication and try again.". Then I click the "Check communication" button and the device is found. The firmware is 1.1.1.3, is that ok? I updated via wifi.

Having the same exact issue

Ok, I tried the support chat at sctflash.com but it says they are not available, so I left them a message with problem description.

I have the same issue, I eventually got torrie's file to upload to the device, not sure how but it's on my device now. What I did was unplug the device from the pc and plug it back in once it was recognized I quickly hit the export dlf/dlc button and it somehow worked. Took a couple tries thought I was doing it incorrectly.

 

[mehturt]

Looks like this worked for me add well. What format did you use? Dlx?

maybe the same day the x4 is released with a mount included? cant wait for either one. so i can get my x4 rigged properly and use datalog right.

Guys having the same issue as me (and from the US), perhaps you could give SCT a call, that's what they asked me thru email: 407-774-2447 x291

 

[DontRevMe]

seems not many are logging with their sct x4. I ordered torries tunes today (91oct) and id like to start logging (checking my fuel quality as well). Im a bit lost on what perameters i need to monitor, and what they mean. If you could help me out with a basic into id appreciate it man.

thanks

 

[mehturt]

Mail Torrie, he will send you config file for logging.

 

[Imitation]

So the x4 and livewire appear to be finicky. Plugging the device in both to export the config file and then to pull the datalog failed the first time I tried. Unplugging then plugging the x4 back in seemed to do the trick to allow me to do both operations.

Now a question, Looks like the datalog I took is actually 6m 45seconds! I thought it wouldn't record until I hit the record button? What's the best way to trim this up?

:edit never mind I see what it did. The timer must start as soon as i started the car up, took me about 6 minutes to get to my flat spot of road I've picked out, the actual log is only 12 seconds long. Time to get some datazap going.

Yes, this is the case for me as well.

 

[mehturt]

Seems like after latest fw update, the logging frequency has increased dramatically. This affects how long you can datalog though.

When you are logging with a laptop and a device, the device is in pass through mode. It only serves as the communicator between the vehicle and the pc. So, this means you are not actually loading anything to the device configuration wise.

If you have a specific list of items you want to log (configuration file) that you have created using livelink, you have to load that file to the device using livelink and the export dlf/dlx button. Once that file is loaded to the device, you can then log on the device only using that configuration file. If that file is not loaded, then as you have seen, you are only presented with the default list of on device configuration files.

Sorry for the thread resurrection, but I am still having an issue with device-only logging.

The Ign Cyl Correction fields are not logging anything.
I am using the custom parameters file from Torrie.

If I hook up my laptop, those parameters log just fine. But device only, they stay at 0.00.

Thanks.

Is the file from Torrie for your actual strategy?

 

[MatthewAMEL]

Yes, GMBM2A2.

 

[Blivit]

Yes, GMBM2A2.

Something must not be right in the setup; can you send me the file?
