Video boost guage
 
I have a Pioneer DVD player with a built in screen. What I want is the boost to show on the screen like they do on the fast and the furious.

Any ideas

Cheers

Andy

Yup.

Add a PC with video out, and add DeltaDash to the PC. Connect PC video out to screen.

Cheers,
Nick.

Provided your Scoob is Delta Dash compatible ;) MY99 onwards.

chiark 04 February 2004 03:01 PM

Indeed. A small point, but a good 'un.

If it isn't, then you'll have to hack some software together to interface to ScoobyMonitor (http://www.scoobymonitor.co.uk) on the RS232 port and display the output in a fast'n'furious stylee ;)

Cheers,

Cool, that piece of hardware looks ace :) Is it possible to buy pre-assembled ones, or do I have to build it myself (Would have searched the archives, but as you probably know, the search is fcuked at the moment) :)

Drop Andy a mail. He's an enthusiast doing things for enthusiasts as projects, not out to make shedloads. I'd say he may well sell 'em

Bugger, he's not replying to the email :)

Does anyone know if it's compatible with a 2003 uk wrx (yes, I can see the comment about my99 onwards, but surely something changed with the ECU when the subaru became an insect :))

chiark 10 February 2004 12:23 PM

No, it isn't compatible.

I'm literally a gnat's cock or two away from starting to work out what the protocol is. The BAUD rate is apaprently different, but we'll crack it.
Cheers,
Nick.

Just a bit confused chaps. This scoobymonitor looks like an excellent project. But is it compatible with MY00, or is it just MY97/98?

chiark 10 February 2004 02:16 PM

Just MY97/98 at the moment IIRC. I'll try to get hold of Andy, but this is just a background project for him so he may be rather difficult to get hold of.
Ta,
Nick.

SidewaysMatt 10 February 2004 02:48 PM

Cheers mate. I`ll have to keep checking back. I`d love to be able to write this stuff myself but not my field!

SyHightower 16 February 2004 05:49 PM
