Title: Any programs with real-time gauges that support FTDI cable? Or do I need ELM327?
Post by: royce5950 on August 12, 2016, 07:14:31 PM
Yesterday I downloaded 10 different programs and 1 by 1, I attempted to connect via FTDI cable with no avail. I have all of the necessary drivers installed and my ftdi cable is recognized by my system as a serial COM port. I currently have it running through COM3. I've used vcds with my FTDI cable, nefmoto, ME7Logger... All of them recognize the cable as COM3...

Does anyone know of a program that has a dashboard function with real-time gauges that works with an FTDI chip? Or am I shit outta luck and I need to order an ELM327 device?

Umm I dont know what your doing, logging with me7logger is by far the best way.
if you going for live display elm or a custom Arduino setup with a display.

I prefer to use me7logger aswell. But I am looking for live gauges so I can monitor in real-time. ME7logger kicks ass but I can't see easily readable results until after I've finished driving.

I just now got visualme7logger working so I'm going to try this for now.
