ECUTalk v1.3.3 Beta 4 (2007-08-21 23:10:34)
I've uploaded the 4th and most likely final beta build of ECUTalk v1.3.3,
beta4. I'm fairly sure all the functionality introduced in these betas now works as intended, though I haven't had much if any feedback from Imperial sensor (Mi/Gal/MPG etc) users. If there are no problems with this build, it will become final v1.3.3.
New features/fixed bugs in beta4 below:
#10 Put font size/scaling for gauges in options
#31 When value exceeds gauge maximum, the actual value should be on digital readout
#32 When you read fault codes without having connected to ecu, ecutalk exits
#33 Gauge colour preview doesnt update till you restart ECUTalk
#35 Save long term trip sensor statistics
#36 Clear trip statistics from sensors
#37 Option dropdown lists are editable on laptop/PC (shouldn't be)
#38 check for port open when reconnecting when gauges showing
#39 Put option in for data flush wait time
#41 If using L|T|R|B settings in the ini file, the gauges arent displayed properly if L is far from 0.
Additional notes:
1) For Flush Wait option, 100ms is default, lower values will give quicker startup times, but higher values might help with some connection problems, eg sensors not showing up, ECU part number not being read, gauges not moving when showing gauges, etc. Eg I can use 20ms on my desktop and 50ms on my 568 Jornada.
2) For Font Base Size and Increment, this allows you to specify a font size, and then the amount of pixels which the font size will be incremeneted depending on gauge size. Eg 6pt + 50px increment on a 200px wide gauge = 10pt font.
3) Also a minor fix to heading names in logs so distance/fuel used have units (KM/Mi,L/Gal)
Spent a lot of work on this one, got a lot of the niggling issues out of the way, the new trip meter sensors along with saving/reset ability should prove quite useful for those with pocket pc/car pc setup
Any issues with it let me know.
