Re: Serial Communication Take 2

FirmwareVersion/Interface Version should be 3 or 4 element structures of unsigned integers NOT a string... Interface version should be numeric with separators of some type, yes, BUT, firmware version should definitely NOT be numeric, no way, it's purely an ID to be pulled out and displayed and/or r...

Re: Serial Communication Take 2

FirmwareVersion/Interface Version should be 3 or 4 element structures of unsigned integers NOT a string.. Strings are ugly to parse, and zero's can be misinterpreted as nul's. a simple: FWVersionStruct { uint8 major; uint8 minor; uint8 micro; }; If you're worried about possible hitting over 256 majo...

Re: Over-The-Wire Unit Test App

The point of having an app for it is to not have raw hand rolled packets :-) The packet format is basic, include an ID at the beginning, and all the data after it, checksum it, seal it and send. Take the reply, pull the NACK bit and payload data out and compare it with what was expected, display pa...

Re: Over-The-Wire Unit Test App

IDOfFunctionUnderTest = <0 - 65535> ArgumentData = <string of comma separated hex values> IS this a complete Packet in hex (header/sequence/data/checksum? If it is not, the software will need to know how to format the packet correctly and this introduces many places where errors could be induced, as...

Re: MTX Bug Reports

Click on the tab to make it refresh, its a GTK+ on windows issue, and the solution is to use a NON-windows OS if it becomes troublesome.

Re: Choosing a better name for the project

The problem is "openlogviewer" is also a Java project on google code for viewing log entries in a mysql DB and this'll create confusion and make google searches for his app highly ineffective... http://code.google.com/p/openlogviewer/updates/list The project is relatively young like Gufi s...

Re: Bench Test Decoder

OK, you're JUST not getting it.. describe the UI that YOU want to see and use, as well as the basic underlying verification the tuning front end MUST do in order to send "good data" to the device. i.e. I want text entries for this, this and this together, and these other ones below in a li...

Re: Far out idea that fred is likely to shoot down immediate

Funny how people overreact (myself included). Jared: I made that post on another subforum as fred was asking for comments (sorry, I don't remember the exact URL), in my typical rambling manner I went off topic, and posted a bunch of wrong information initially (due to lack of understanding regarding...

Far out idea that fred is likely to shoot down immediately

EDIT: Moved this from another thread in another section, posting this half of the post, unchanged, as an idea here. NOTE: This will require a wideband O2 sensor. Do you anticipate a self-tune operational mode (optional mode to be enabled by the user for limited periods or time), such that as long as...
