Logging SpareADC

Post by DaveyC »

Is it possible to log spareADC?

I've set up my MS3 with another GM air temp sensor connected to spareADC, customised my dash with tunerstudio and loaded it to shadowdash. My phone displays the real time data coming from the temp sensor, but I can't find spareADC in megalogviewer.

I've done all of that, I just can't find the values in my data logs. It doesn't appear in the drop down boxes. Would it be labled spareADC or something else in log viewer?

You need to actually do what this page says and configure an input.

I did do that, I can see the values the sensor is reading on my phone's display in shadow dash.

The MSQ and datalog you posted do not have that enabled.

Managed to get it to work.

I had to manually replace the CurrentTune file stored on my phone with the latest one from when I installed the additional sensor. I thought the ShadowDash app would have 'grabbed' this from the megasquirt when it connected. I assumed it was all working fine because the phone was obviously receiving the sensor data and displaying it on the screen, just not logging it. It's a shame because I just got back from a three-day drive and it would have been really useful to see the data. I think I vaguely recall a pop-up message when I first started using ShadowDash warning about having to replace the CurrentTune files.
