Anyone has a performance steering wheel running data acquisition?
Hi all,
From speaking with Tom at EAS Tuning in CA, the vehicle can only use 1 CAN address to send data, my problem is that I have the BMW performance steering wheel with the electronic display which also pulled signal from the CAN. Tom indicated that running both the Racelogic data acquisition system and the steering wheel at the same time is not possible. Anyone with the same steering wheel/data acq. system running into the same issue? I guess I can power off the steering wheel and use the Racelogic at the track then turn off the RL and power on the wheel for the street.... Thoughts?

If the t was the cases, everything that relies on the canbus in your car would fail to work the second you tapped a data logger into it. I run an aim solo 2 dl on the track that I have tapped directly into the canbus from the FEM in the passenger footwell. Don't have a performance steering wheel, but again, I don't see why this would be a problem short of the network not being able to handle the additional bandwidth. Honestly don't know enough about it to be sure. I guess I could plug another data logger (Bluetooth to Harry's laptimer for example) into my OBD port and see what happens. |

I was told the vehicle only has 1 CAN address and can't be sending data to 2 different sources. I believe Tom said the same issue came up with JB4 installed and running AWRON at the same time.
Can you connect to the OBD2 port with a device power on and see if your AIM Solo is running normally while driving? Quote:

Now maybe the OBD port has a separate bus that it works off of, I know when I bought my solo, they told me that more data was available if I went straight to the canbus vs. plugging into the OBD port (different cable for each). Like I said before, I would think that it should work. Last edited by detroitm2; 09-03-2020 at 07:53 AM.. |

Thanks for checking. I'll power up the RL and steering wheel today and see what'll happen.
