Launch control in datalog

Post by potatomash »

Hi,

How do I get launch control to show up in the datalog? I believe I need a custom output in the ini file.

My launch control is ground triggered on JS4 but thats only the input switch. So I don't think thats what I want to output into the log, the launch gauge in tunerstudio is on status2AND8_OC but I see there is also LaunchOC and LaunchActive, not sure which would show me the spark retard in the log..?

Yeah that works, I guess I explicitly wanted launch in the graph so I don't have to go hunting for it - can easily be seen

You can use the status fields.

How so? None of them show anything in the datalog, so I think it needs configuring in the custom.ini?

Please just attach the files. Without them nobody will be able to help you.
