shadow dash

For discussing Phil Tobin's TunerStudio MS is the MegaSquirt edition of TunerStudio, a next generation tuning application. It provides the ability to configure and tune all MegaSquirt controllers and is 100% compatible with MegaTune ini files and msq's.

shadow dash

Is this forum the correct place to discuss shadow dash being as it is related to tuner studio or is there someplace better.
thanks

This is fine with me.
The Palm / Phone based software would also seem like a valid forum.

I have registered 1.22 on LG 500 phone and your blue tooth adapter. My controller is running B&G embedded 2.92. When I start shadow dash it searches and after a few tries it connects and then shows one time setup, then a screen comes up with info on errors and problems and then the screen disappears before I can read what is there. My question is there any way to make the error screen stay put until I read it? After that the connected icon is green with no others lit. If you scroll to the other screens a box with not connected shows.

Check on the phone in the /ShadowDash MS/ dir and there is a file called appDebug.txt
That should have the full error message.

I found that file and it is quite large. I had back installed to 1.19 to see if that helped. It didn't. I will reinstall 1.22 and then get the debug file from that if you think that is a good idea.

All working now. I had to manually import the ini, project and dash from my ubuntu TS notebook. SD wouldn't pick it up on it's own. Being as I am almost illiterate in linux speak it was real time consuming. Anyhow pretty awsome went it gets working.

What firmware are you using?

SD checks with the server and gets the ini if it doesn't have it. You do need internet access though.

Unless you have an odd firmware, then shoot me the ini and I will get it on the server for future users

I am running embedded 2.92. I see now more how it works. My phone is an old smart phone and I don't have a data plan and where the car is there is no wifi. So that would be why I didn't get and auto update. Maybe a note about that in the install memo would be good for us not so computer savy guys. Anyhow, as I said it is awesome when it gets working. Does anyone have any hints about the hud display on the windshield?

makes sense. The next release will have the 2.92 ini bundled with it. As that is a current firmware.
