DL1 Club - DASH4 PRO - ECU - Configure etc
Posted: Mon Mar 05, 2018 2:39 pm
I have what I think is a pretty basic setup. DL1 club, output to a DASH 4 Pro with an ECU in the middle. The DL1 is an addition, as my previous setup was just the DASH 4 and my ECU, working fine.
All I want is for the DL1 to read data from the ECU via the CAN, then splurge it out to the DASH 4. I can then also log all the GPS and g data as well as the ECU parameters. My problems are:
1) On power up all I get is the power on light (steady) and the status light flashing twice - indicating an SD card reading error. SD card seems ok, re-formatted it FAT32 as recommended, no difference.
2) I can't connect to the DL1 via the USB to my laptop. I connect the lead and it shows up in my device manager. But click 'read configuration' and all I get is a pop up message saying it 'can't identify connected device'. It does seem to connect through the live monitor, but as I can't configure the logger to be reading from my ECU I see nothing
3) With the DASH 4 connected to the ECU and not the DL1 it shows the temps, rpms etc. this is with the DASH powered independently and the CAN correctly terminated. If I power the DASH back from the DL1 serial port (no terminator, CAN wired Pin2/3 etc.) the DASH shows nothing (although powers up). What needs configuring in the ECU? (assuming I can resolve connection to it). It seems I need to enable 'decode serial data' but I can't see how I can do that.
Any advice on any points above gladly taken.
Thanks
