CF elm327

[spoolup]

hi guys,
a buddy of mine asked me to give him a hand setting up his carpc.
we've got most of the hardware in minus the elm327 1.2a he just bought.
we ran it thru dashcommand and scantool where it was recognized. dashcommand gave good rpm readings.
scantool dismissed it as "cheap" product. fair enough.

CF (2.0 i think) connects (ignore PiD, 9600 baud) but all values are N/A.

Disabled all options minus engine speed and rebooted. no luck.

ran the log and this is what we got:

Hmmm,
If Im understand you in background you have opened dashcommand application? ONLY one application can use COM port in same time...

i figured. for some reason the latest startup wasn't logged.
do any of the symptoms make sense tho?

[spoolup]

i know the dude's car has 4 error codes as well and they dont show...

Try posting in the bug reports so that way the developers can help you out. Make sure you enable all logs and then attach the system report to your bug report. Also is your com port lower than 8?

i will later on today. thanks
it's also port 4
