Also, out of interest... There seem to be a few people out there running delta-dash. Have you all had to obtain/make special serial cables to whatever connector is on the car, or do the newer cars have a standard 9 pin RS-232 connector somewhere???

I am really itchy to find out more about the Select monitor protocol!!!! Does anyone out there know more about it?

 

I guess you're referring to the OBD-II connector. On my car, the OBD-II connector is on the front side of the panel, the Select Monitor one is right at the same place on the back side of it.

I've looked, and there is a yellow connector with 4 conductors. From a quick bit of probing with a meter, I am assuming:

+12v
TTL (5v) Tx
TTL (5v) Rx
GND

But I am gagging to know what the serial protocol is! Would I see any kind of sense if I hooked it up to a TTY running at the appropriate baudrate (and appropriate voltage, of course), or is it more likely a binary protocol (where you send a few non-textual bytes at a time representing a command)?

 

Hi Nexxxus

What is the status of your website, I'm really looking forward to details about your reader?!

//loscooby

 

I have now teamed up with Nexxxus - I'll help him create the website (which is my primary job) and he'll help me to build my reader for my MY02.

So you'll hopefully be able to see progress real soon

Cool piece of kit....

Want one for my MY01!!! It would be the dogs if it could do oil temp and pressure and also a shift change like the STI?!!

But hey... time is required and this looks like the thing people are crying out for....

Gook luck in your development..

Nexxxus,

Would you provide any information on the Select Monitor protocol?

I am really interested to find out more.

Regards

James

 

see http://lillith.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp/~kashima/car/gc8-e.html

 

Just wondering if looking at the select monitor port with my laptop while driving the car would help diagnose my boost problem?

If possible tech info would be greatly appreciated (can be emailed)

Thanks

Dave

 

Any news on this? Looks superb

 

Any idea when the website will appear?

Jon.

I hope you can have one of these for my94's, it looks excellent, I want one!!!!!!

I can confirm that Nexxxus is working on the website and will be updating it soon (there is a frontpage there now).

I am currently helping with his translation of Estonian English into Lancastrian English to ensure that any information put on the site is not ambiguous or misleading.

 

Good news... we await that impatiently...

 

BTTT. any more news?

 

btt

 

Oooh, just seen this and very interested. Is this similar to the Techtom device?

 

Its absolutely great news that he is keeping this open source, beats paying megbucks. I wish this guy all the luck in the world.I hope he puts all the other rip off places out of business.

 

Any news on the MY99 debugging?

Jon.
