How to log realtime values while driving ?

(1/3) > >>

Hello,

I've got a K13GT with some idling problems. I suspect the O2 sensor but I'm not sure. The dealer is still looking for the cause also without luck. As their latest diagnostic gear is not finding any fault, they are clueless. It does not even plot the O2 sensor values but costs in the ten of thousands! This is a joke. I ask them if working like this is not frustrating (following what the Computer says). Where are their experiences as tech put at use ? Anyway, this is another story  ::)

I think of saving the real time values of the engine while I drive but don't know the preferred way! I don't see myself with the laptop connected and riding  :o

Thanks for your suggestions

Issa

hi Issa,

I normally do it on my mobile (I have an Android phone - any Android device will do, as well as Windows Mobile 5 & 6 devices, Blackberries and other Java based mobile phones)... I then connect the GS-911, make the connection to my phone, select the engine, select the realtime values (at this point you will see them) - then select options/menu -> log values (or start logging or something like that...) once done, I normally just send them to the server (once uploaded you get a link where you can view or download them as CSV) ...then I put Excel to god use...

alternatively I know of a number of people who use there little netbooks to do this... you just need to configure the netbook itself that is does not go to sleep when you close the lid) - then pop it into a backpack and off you go...

best,
Stephan

What Stephan say-
I have a OLD cellphone- so I use a laptop instead.
The laptop strapped to my tankbag. (not on rainy days)

" I don't see myself with the laptop connected and riding"

Why not? You will do so for testing. Just find a low traffic area and time.   :)
Just use tape or string to make sure the USB wire stay in place.

Ok, will try the phone way then.

too much afraid of breaking beloved laptop while riding  ;D

Also as the bike's idling trouble is not showing up every time I ride, I will need to log a lot...

Thx

Hi Stephan,

I've followed your instructions and started the logging but I cannot find the file afterwards on the phone (using java version of GS911Mobile on a Nokia).
Can you tell me where GS911Mobile stores the log file ?

Thx
