VemsTune for Android ?

[LHK_audi_S2_Nor]

With something like this?

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_kw=serial&_kw=bluetooth#ptm260865367462

What baudrate is supported in the VEMS app? Looks like standard setting in these cheap BT/serial devices is 9600. The Android app looks nice! Would be nice if theres a possibility to edit maps also in the future!

Finally got round to fiddling a bit with this, after installing Hyperterminal on the laptop and Arduino Bluetooth terminal software on the phone I was able to send messages back and forth (after temporarily enabling LF at the end of lines.

Changing the baudrate from 19200 to 9600 was tricky, had to write the "AT+BAUD5" command in notepad, copy it and paste it in Hyperterm as the time window for sending the command is short, 1 sec or so?.

Connecting the Android app to the phone was easy, but got the "no AIM data" message. Swapped pin 2 and 3 on my male - male 9 pin cable between the VEMS and the RS232/bluetooth thing and the Vemsdisplay app started receiving data! :-) Thanks for the info from the forum, would have taken forever to find out without it!

Will I be able to run a bluetooth adapter and a vems round from a ECU?

I guess with AIM protocol it should be doable right?

[Sprocket]

I thought the same, and read up on sharing the serial port with two devices.

So long as there are two listening devices, it won't matter. With AIM, the round is just a listening device, and the Vems round null modem prevents any TX from the round onto the RX of the V3 (so I am led to believe). So, if you use the Android app in AIM mode with the null modem and the round, it should not cause any problmes as both devices are just listening  to the V3.

what I would like to know though is when will the Round firmware be updated to listen to triggerframe data  instead of AIM (not sure if it is possibe ), Much more possablities then  for the simple 52mm guage

Even though we would stick to the AIM protocol there are loads of things in there we aren´t using that could be used, 8bits could for instance incorporate 8 different flags being on or off. So there are all kinds of options.

Am I crazy or wasn´t there some talk about second RS232 on the Vems?

[Sprocket]

Its there. Really only used for gps. Have a search about on the forum for gps reciever.

Would be nice if it could transmit aim on the second port and leave triggerframe on the primary port

Here you go. Some info in here on second com port

Could second serial port be used same as first to connect laptop with vemstune or bluetooth adapter?

Is standard (first) serial port with bluetooth adapter fast enough and stable to use it for vemstune logging instead of usb to rs232 cable adapter?
I get random disconnections with usb to serial adapter (profilic) and would like use bluetooth if its fast enough, someone sayed something about onley 9600bps ...

[mattias]

Without firmware and hardware changes it is not possible to do what you want.
It's also a matter of capability, I'm not sure that there is processing power to handle both at high baud rate on both ports.

If you get USB adapter disconnection you should fix your ignition system, and not blame the adapter. Resistor plugs, and healthy wires.

Hi there,
  I am trying to use VemsDisplay on Lenovo P770 (Android 4.1.1), but without success. My BT converter works fine, on desktop PC with BT dongle I am able to use Vemstune via BT without any problems (on 19200). Even when I run RealTerm, I can see AIM data packets in the air (see catched AIM code section bellow (2 frames), AIM data frame should start with 0x69 0xA3 ...)
 The blue LED on BT adapter is still flashing when VemsDisplay is trying to establish connection (it means there is no connection between phone and BT adapter)

Code: [Select]

When I try msDroid for MSII ECU, all is working on my Lenovo P770 fine......
Thanks for any ideas.   P.

Edit: I am using FW 1.1.96

I've found a solution to the problem when AIM mode is working on VEMSDisplay but triggerframe not connecting:
In my case, hardware flow control (CTS/RTS) of BT dongle had to be disabled (ATC0 command on this one).

AIM stream output in Vemstune/"display settings" also had to be disabled, and power off/on.

Now it works fine on this expensive BT dongle at 19200baud, 8,N,1
-Still need to sort out for the cheap one too

Hello all

I have same problem as AudiS2, im using same bluetooth module as Zotya.
I changed baud rate and name of module and i can find it using mobile phone with bluetooth. Android apllication cant connect (it says connecting all the time) and the led on bluetooth module keps flashing
...

I have similar problem.
Temporary solution was to swap BT dongle to a serial cable running VemsTune (on PC) on the other side.
A few seconds later VemsTune connects. Then it can be disconnected and BT adapter connected. 

After that VemsDisplay finally connects and running fine until the ECU powered-off.  Then all the above procedure must be repeated.

Versions involved:
Lenovo Ideapad A1 (4.0), ZTE Blade (2.3)
VEMS Firmware 2.1.1
VemsTune 2013.02.15
VemsDisplay 3.0 (2013-02-15)

Still cannot communicate over bluetooth and I am completely out of my depth

Why Vemsdisplay 3.0 doesn't read EGT in triggerframe mode? Only in AIM mode I'm able to get egt values.

I'm also have this problem. Anyone made it work?
