Logging software and info - one stop shop

LOGGING SOFTWARE:

MMCd - Ver 1.6n this with a palm and cable is all you need.

ver 1.5B an older version if you want to tinker with it or even ver 1.3

MMCd tools for viewing your logs in excel
TMO zip file for use on laptop or desktop if you have a really long cable

Pocket logger - the real deal for those that arent too cheap to spend the cash

I have the Palm n stein and tunerstein files but there is really no reason to use these unfinished tools. The MMCd software has come a long way and may only be surpassed by pocketlogger as far a palm logging goes.


LOGGING INFO:

MMCd Home page - includes info on supported handhelds and making a cable

MMCd homepage copy of the original just in case the above isnt available


TMO info faq from an old site here in MS Word doc format - logger and tuner 101 type info along with some tunerstein info as well

More MMCd info in a post from Sean


PALMS, PARTS AND OS:

Factory direct for refurbed or new palms

Canada Computers for refurbed or new palms

Cheap Palm liquidators out of Markham + parts - it has a new Palm IIIxe with 4.1 OS for $58 buxs

Palm Medic - parts, cables, cradles etc out of Ottawa DIY repairs and parts

I have the 4.1 OS upgrade but it is a 6MB file and may or may not keep it availabe for download.
Freeware Palm downloads for general palm apps and utilities

Someone needs to make a good free logger software for 2g. Palm'n'stein isn't bad, but could be alot better.

version 1.8g is available here, the digital display is much better, you can view 4 at once:

Also, here is some info for using extra 0-5V inputs (wideband, boost, I log my AVCR sensor) with the newer mmcd, scroll down to my photo:

Version 1.8 copy on my space as well here . 3si and the MMcd guys do enough at least I can provide the space Thanks to Sean for keeping us up to date

Apparently the 1.8 version isn't compatible with the MMCD Tools. Is there a fix yet for this?

It worked for me. I just converted a file to excel. My version 1.8 is a little newer than the one 2 posts up. If anyone else wants it, email me.

Thanx Sean, works like a charm without my computer freezing up.

Is there any recommended links for cable creation?

I remember seeing a few, but compy died so I didnt get to bookmark. Anyone have any?

MMCd tells you how...

If you're handy with Google, you can find other examples too.

Way up in the first post Reading is fun

Does any one know any software (laptop) for a 2G, just to see if it connects to the OBDII?
I got a cable,and used a program for evos (which is supposed to work on the 2G) but I get an error saying it cant initialize the OBDII or some thing..
Any ways I just want to test and see if this cable works..

side note: Does the car have to run, in order to conenct to ecu? I just turned the key in the ON position, as my car will not start on its own right now...

On to retrieve codes, running to log in realtime.

try this link: http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/art...-how-set-up-mmcd-make-logging-cable.html

Ive been searching for this for a while.. I remember there being a link to a site that showed what Serial to USB connections work for data logging but can't seem to find it if someone could help me out that would be awesome. Just got a laptop and want to log the car but it doesnt have the proper port to plug into.

This should do it. I got an adapter from the Source(radio shack) and it doesn't work, so I just ordered a keyspan off ebay for $25.

http://www.dsmlink.com/wiki/usbtoserialadapterinfo

The Keyspan manufacturer is right there in Guelph.
Call them up, they'll tell you their local supplier.

I think it was $35 for me. Got it the next day.
KeySpan's Canadian Supplier

Sweet thanks alot guys

I've been looking a really long time and i cant seem to find the TMO software for laptop..

Google failed me.

Google never fails.

Hmm TMO software doesn't work with my laptop for some reason.. any other software that would?

Would a Palm Emulator work on windows to install the palm software (Like MMCD) and use it on the laptop?

Yes that will work. I've done in the past while tuning an S-ACF car.

cool thanks Kevin ill try that

Palm IIIxe

i just got a palm 3 and it has version 3.0 .. the palm website is down and i cant find a link to get 3.5 os

does anyone have a hotlink or have the file?

Palm III. 3 what? The above link for flash tools are for for Palm OS ver 4.x. I have 3.53 kickin around somewhere as well.

let me know when you find 3.53, i needed to update my palm from 3.02 but couldnt find any link online.

I flashed a Palm IIIe using Palm Desktop and got Pocketlogger going.
Here's the link: http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/common/article/37014_en.html

Really? you can do that? I have palm III version 3.0 and re MMCD required 3.5. I can see the icon but cant open it.
I was looking for a palm III software version 3.5 to updated it.
Can you give me a quick run down on how to flash it using the palm desktop?

Sure!

- Take the batteries out for a while to reset the Palm (you'll lose your data).

- Install the Palm Desktop software on your PC.

- Run the Palm Desktop program and click on "Quick Install" (at the left of the window).
It might ask you for a username now or later, it shouldn't matter what you pick.

- Drag the MMCd install files from explorer into the quick install window.

- If there is no "hot sync" icon in the system tray (at the right of the taskbar), run the HotSync Manager program.

- Right click on the hot sync icon and make sure that "Local Serial" is selected (for serial cable) or "Local USB" (for USB cable).

- Put the batteries in the Palm, start it up, plug it into the computer and sync it.

That should get MMCd onto your Palm.

//edit
Crap. I just realized that you're trying to do more than just sync with your PC, I think..
Can't hurt to try though, maybe the newer Palm Desktop will allow it to work?

that's ok .lol

Way to bring back something from the dead, but what is THE logger of choice for a 2G if you don't have Link?

Edit: I've read that palm emulators are used on notebooks these days instead of palm devices?

I prefer the Palm on a 1G I tried a few things on my laptop with little succes.

I personally would recommend a blue tooth device with torque, that is assuming you either have an Android or iFone.

Edit: Turns out that torque doesn't work for iFone, but there are other apps that you have

Yeah I recall you guys discussing this bluetooth device that hooks up to the OBDII port, and it works with Android devices.

I downloaded the app on my old phone, but switched to a Windows phone.

Might be switching back if this app as a logger works as well as whatever 2G users are using.

isnt the proper cable for evoscan only like 35 bucks and 20 for evosca? Not the open port 2.0 but the 1.3?, or even a free program like mutscan.
