OBD-II and aftermarket ECU displays

**Impakt** · 06-02-11, 10:51 AM

Hi all,
I currently write the software and sell OBD-II and aftermarket ECU displays at www.ecudatascan.com.au

At the moment there's $20 off the ECUDatascan + 10% off store wide (until 15 Feb).

If you're a PF member I'll take another $5 off every year you've been here (max. 10 years).

Thanks,
Impakt

Support for.Haltech e11v2?

**Impakt** · 06-02-11, 01:25 PM

I have all the protocol info for that model (from Haltech themselves). Not sure how to connect to it yet though. Is it a plug and play or was it wired in?

**10sec rx7** · 06-02-11, 02:39 PM

you want to try one in the wednesday night slapper??

just a stock LS1 PCM...

**rexxxy** · 06-02-11, 08:08 PM

I have an Innovate OT2 scanner. I kind of hate it.

Can I connect your screen to the OT2?

**Impakt** · 07-02-11, 07:36 AM

10sec_rx7: yeah if you're keen. Is it CAN?

rexxxy: Afraid not. The ECUDatascan uses its own OBD-II cable.

**TonyJZX** · 07-02-11, 07:48 AM

hey when are you thinking about seeing dale?

i have a autel 703 sitting at the post office awaiting pickup

**Impakt** · 07-02-11, 07:50 AM

I gotta go to Panelcorp today to drop off the territory, so could go as soon as today.

P.S. ECUDatascan doesn't do PWM/VPW (yet). Waiting for my cable guy to give me the firmware update that has support for it.

**Boxer** · 07-02-11, 08:19 AM

I can endorse this product , been using for a year or so in the Lib, doubles as an iGo GPS too.

If it did knock detection thatd be perfect

**Impakt** · 07-02-11, 08:22 AM

I'm not 100% sure but I thought there was a knock retard parameter on the Subaru ECU. You could add that to a dashboard and set an alert on it?

**tut** · 07-02-11, 09:10 AM

i want one. but i've got all kinds of cashflows at the moment and i'm on top.....

and i don't even know wether my next car will have OBDII.

how long does this promo thing last?

does it play ogg and flac?

**Impakt** · 07-02-11, 10:06 AM

nah I'm afraid it doesn't. It has a 400Mhz CPU (with no dedicated gfx chip) so the CPU has to do all the work. It plays mp3/mp4/divx decently though.

well, ogg and flac are just songs anyway... (and i don't care for mp4/divx, as i'd be driving :P )

but as i said earlier, i'd have to know what car will be the next one before i make any decision......

A few members have bought one, sale ends on Tuesday. After that only the PF member discount will apply.

**Cookiemonster** · 11-02-11, 03:20 PM

I just bought one. This is a great piece of gear.
Been playing with it all day.

If your car has an OBD port, this is highly recommended.

**jasonp1977** · 11-02-11, 04:12 PM

Do you have a list of parameters that can be displayed with the vipec ECU's?

I wouldn't mind getting a couple of these for my vipec controlled cars instead of the link/vipec display.

Does the display connect to the CAN port or the normal comms port on the vipec?

**Impakt** · 11-02-11, 05:44 PM

It connects to the CAN port using the adapters that we sell on the site. ViPec and Link happily provided us with the complete protocol spec so we support all parameters that the ViPec/Link software supports.

**jasonp1977** · 11-02-11, 05:47 PM

Awesome, what's the best way to order? I'll get one to start with along with vipec and ECU cables.

**Impakt** · 11-02-11, 05:54 PM

Just order on the website. I'll create a coupon code for you to get the PF discount.

nah its not can.. just normal GM OBD2,

**Impakt** · 11-02-11, 06:08 PM

yeah cable doesn't support that yet. Waiting for the firmware update from my supplier.

**10sec rx7** · 11-02-11, 06:13 PM

thats shit! lol

let me know when you want it tested

It was wired in, though being an is200 I think it has an OB11 port. Factory computer still thinks it runs the show.

**Impakt** · 13-02-11, 10:02 AM

I asked Haltech about the PS2000 ECU for another customer this week and they tell me it's a proprietary connector that's used to connect to the CAN port on the ECU. SO you'd need to get a cable from Haltech to adapt to the ECUDatascan.

If you're keen I can chase it up with them.

**10sec rx7** · 13-02-11, 11:18 AM

No there is can hi and can low in the normal ecu plugs... You don't have to use that connector

**Jim** · 13-02-11, 11:29 AM

I reviewed this for Race magazine ages ago. It's a damn good bit of gear and when it can do VT LS1 I'll be buying one as a dash replacement in the race car.

**yojimbo** · 13-02-11, 01:39 PM

My Ecu install is piggybacked over the standard body and engine ecu ( which are required to make the stock dash work). The Haltech ecu gets one set of data through its sensors, and the factory ecu still has its full set of sensors in place. Wondering if I could treat it as a stock car and just plug in as if it were no different ?

**denmaster** · 13-02-11, 01:56 PM

does this work on a 1998 SAAB?

Yes that will work

Yeah like Dale says it will work. It will show whatever the factory ecu thinks is going on though.
