there is also a beta version (will be final v1.3.1 if all OK):
http://www.ecutalk.com/downloads/ECUTalk_v1.3.1.exe

it has a instant fuel economy MPG sensor added, and an option added under options->other for "imperial" sensors.

imperial = miles, farenheit, MPG sensors show up
not imperial = km, celcius, L/100KM sensors show up

that way there isnt duplicates of the speed/temperature/economy sensors for metric/imperial

I've gotta give this a bump.
I've been using the latest version with the MPG display on my laptop. It helped me diagnose a bad IACV and correctly set my idle when I replaced it (gotta adjust the idle screw so that the AAV readout shows between 20 and 40%, works better than any other method I've tried.)
Of course, you need a DataScan or Blatz cable. If you need to use a USB cable, I'd go with the Blatz. If you are using an RS232 connection, you can use either but personally I use the DataScan.
Oh and remember that this is freeware, so if you download it, use it and like it, donate NewKleer some PayPal bucks....

Can't wait to get my null-modem adapter so that I can permanently install a PDA on my dash to use as a set of extra guages.

Interesing. Where'd you get that information?

Very cool. This may help with some issues I've got too.

I've already got one [/monty python]

For those who don't know, you can order Calum's ECU's "Consult Ready" so you don't need a consult box, just a cable.

ECUTalk v1.3.2 Released - http://www.ecutalk.com

This version fixes a few bugs and has some pretty big performance improvements.
Users of v1.3 and v1.3.1 should update to this version.
v.1.3.1 added a MPG sensor for Imperial users (and an option to switch between Imperial/Metric sensors).
  • Fixed issue in v1.3 and v1.3.1 which meant data packets weren't being dropped when CPU couldn't keep up
  • Increased performance of gauge drawing by ~250% (on my PPC, time to draw a gauge went from ~30ms down to around ~12ms).
  • Changed code to always draw gauges (even if data hasnt changed) in order to result in consistent amount of packets being logged per second.
  • Added option to specify minimum gauge update speed - higher value means more packets are logged due to less gauge updates (and hence more time for logging). Eg on my 568 Jornada PocketPC 2002, 10ms = ~5 packets logged/second, whereas 1000ms = close to full 50 packets). The setting ignored when not logging (it will just update as quickly as possible).
  • Improved consult streaming to allow more data to be read in and processed (rather than lost). Probably the best program for data logging due to the sheer amount of data able to be read in. On my desktop PC, setting minimum gauge refresh to 0ms (ie never skip a gauge redraw, hence uses most CPU), can log 35 packets/second of all sensors. Setting minimum refresh to just 50ms gives the full 50 packets/second. I compared this to Nissan Datascan, which can only log 16 packets/second on the same PC (and thats without gauges shown at all) with the same sensors.
  • Changed options controls to dropdowns rather than textboxes (i didnt realise id disabled the use of the soft input panel on PPC, so you couldnt change settings). If you want to enter a value other than shown, edit the .ini file.
  • Fixed logging time output, both to add in the missing leading zeros (eg it would show 7:5:7 for 7:05:07), and also added in a interpolated millisecond value for PPC users (which doesnt have a millisecond capability in standard time object).
  • Minor changes to individual sensors to better display on gauges, and slight changes to change config (units shown next to sensor rather than down bottom as often the units would overlap gauge).
  • Added a hidden option for CarPC users with frontends (eg Centrafuse) to manually edit .ini file to set custom top/bottom/left/right co-ordinates for full-screen mode. Example: FullScreenBounds_L|T|R|B:10|20|1000|900. Setting all to 0 will use default method.

most of the ppc with the tiny usb cable (like xda o2 mini or whatever the small one is) dont have a serial port and so it wont work (unless by some miracle it has USB host capability, then u need a usb/serial converter with FTDI chip in it, and a normal serial consult interface).

dont get consult mixed up with obd2 btw

I'm having trouble getting into imperial mode. I got it to work once, but it didn't stay the next time I used it, and I couldn't get it to change back. Is there a way to set it once and be done?
