simonr Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 A little update. Reading OBD data has proven a lot harder than I imagined! This however is the first time I've been able to correctly read live data - though it's from an OBD Emulator rather than having to sit in the car never mind take photos while moving! I abandoned using WiFi because there was simply not enough memory to implement the IP stack, manage the connection or generate any kind of user interface. I only have 28kbytes to play with - and 11k of that is taken for the two fonts I'm using. This is using a BlueTooth interface into a very low cost OBD Dongle (Cost £4 delivered!). I had hoped to have a shiny user interface to configure the gauge - but it's going to be very sparce. It uses a BlueTooth terminal app on a phone / tablet which is free to download then just asks for a series of numbers / strings of characters to configure each of the 6 things it can display (selected from 20 or so OBD readings and several analogue / digital inputs or any combination of the two). The project stalled for a couple of weeks as it just stopped working. The display was not behaving and it turned out that the display itself was faulty. Another one turned up today - and it immediately worked! Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 And even better - it connected OK to my RRS: Some of the PIDs are obviously not the same as my emulator. Think I need to enumerate which PIDs are available then intelligently decide which to use for each of the built in measurements. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
