Hi all

hope you can help

i have an audi s3 8l and i can't get the logger to work

i'm using a ross-tech full version cable

here's a screenshot

so i installed VCP, changed com port etc.
- tried connecting with car off - it's fine, as soon as i turn the key it disconnects
- car on and try to connect - doesn't work
- engine on, pull fuse, and try to connect - i get this error where it tries but fails

what else can i do?

Try using double init (search around the board for more info).

- connection method "double slowinit" added (helps with "instrument cluster" problem)
  To use double slowinit set in the [Communication] section of the .ecu file:
    Connect      = SLOW-0x00
    DoubleDelay  = 12           ; Possible values 1 .. 100 (delay in 100ms)
  This only allows to connect while engine not yet started.

Worked for me with DoubleDelay set at 50.
Turn ignition on, connect logger, start engine.

Set method to SLOW-0x00.
Turn ignition on, connect.

If it runs, you are in business.
If it keeps disconnecting and you are on the older cluster, set the speed to 10400 baud. After that it will work.

The binary can be patched to allow this method to connect with engine running (some RPM > 0 checks have to be patched).
This is pretty much required on the older cluster since the connection is not very stable.

If you set it to double slow init, that's exactly what it will do by itself.

ok just changing the SLOW-0x11 to 0-00 worked for me

i tried putting in Double init but the file wouldn't work.

and i didn't realise you needed to edit the .ecu file to find what needed changing

all good now though

That's what SLOW-0x00 does, double slow-init.
