Are you there?

I am trying to extract logged data.

what do they mean by venue?

what do they mean by session?

Do I have to answer all these question?

If I extract a new file does that erase all the old files?

Paul Lamar


Paul, like I said before I am not a Motec expert but a session would
 probably be something like morning practice 1. A venue would be Road
 Atlanta.

You would add comments like adjusted base fuel pressure from  32.5 to
35 PSI.

I don't think every line has to be filled out.

The old files are not erased unless you delete them. Even if you
extract them and send them to someone it keeps a copy. If you make a
 change to a file save it under a new name like 1b. You always want
to be able to go back to the previous map if it was better. Barry

Thanks Barry.

When I try to load one I get a blank screen with out the engine
having been run. Here is a screen capture.

Is there away to get a list of the logged files in the M800?

Paul Lamar


Paul, if you look at your blank screen at the top select ..file, the drop-down
box should say something like ...file /open.   And a list of files from previous
runs should show up. When you select one of them in a blank page will then become filled with data.

Thanks Barry I will try that.

We ran out of inputs when we put an exhaust manifold pressure sensor
and an EGT sensor so that logged data is going into the Motec dash device.

The Motoc dash device has far more memory than the Motec
800 CPU.

Motec should have put a 64 Gig SD card in the $3000 M800 just like
the $60 Maximite I used to measure the compression pressures :-)
