One more update today.  I will probably slow down on this project for a while unless there are any other requests.  Cleaned up the UI a bit... got rid of the stupid rpm gauge. Made labels nicer.  Added tooltips to the graph lines.  Added options for vertical and horizontal graph resolution.

oh.. forget that it is GUI and trying to run it standalone
you should make a msgbox for such idiots like me Smiley

btw doesnt work for me (and me7logger too) because 'cant open com port' error=2 0x1
only vag-com can connect for reading logs

i will try to play with bauds..

This is just a wrapper around me7logger, so if you cant get that to work, this wont work for you either.   Sounds like you just need to specify the correct com port (look in device manager to find out which one your cable is using)  let me know if you need help, I can walk you through it.

if you are using a vcds cable you may need the vcp drivers

download this and install the driver:
http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/usb/virtual-com-port.html

Once you install this, you might have to use the windows device manager and "disable" the virtual com port driver to make vag-com work the way it did with the other driver.

it is installed
i know which com-port it used and how to change it
but only vag-com can connect
other tools like me7logger and lemmiwinks are not
nefmoto logger can connect but saw only zeroes except calc egt which are ok

Hi,
finally i was able to test it and i have to say: you are improving the best! Thank you so far!
But i also have to say i have encountered a little problem during the graphic mode:
with the display-setting "line" or any related it looks really strange. the only possible view i could use was the point/fastpoint-style, but it was pretty annoying because it was pretty slow. did anybody have the same problem or is able to guess what causes this issue?
but although: the text-showing window in the right is cool add-on!

The fast-line/fast-point are going to give you the best performance possible.  The other options are in there merely as a beta option.  Regardless, any real-time graph plotting will be pretty processor intensive.  I have a 5-7 year old laptop (slow for today's standards) and it is able to display 10+ variables on the graph and keep up just fine.  Open up your task manager and see how the VisualME7Logger is performing regarding CPU%.
Your graph does looks a little funny though... seems like you rpm variable is jumping all around on you.  I'd be interested to see what those logs look like to see how it made a graph that looks like your screenshots.

i was wondering whether it is a problem of sample rates. so that the logger asks for a value and there isnt already one, so its using zero (but it looks like it uses infinity or something really big...)
but changing them had no effect.
maybe i have to explain that my "normal" me7logger is not always producing "." while logging, but sometimes also "o", the hint that the time gets too small. Maybe this could be reason for it? never had problems with the normal logs though.
the loggings that produced this behaviour lool normal so far. if you want to i can attach them although

Yes, attach the log file that was generated. there should be nice, smooth, linear values in there. I'll take a look.  Your graphs should look much nicer than what you see.  See the screenshot on the first post as example.

Concerning performance, another thing you can do is dial down the refresh rate of the logging screen.  Instead of refreshing every 50ms (I think that's default) try something more like 100ms or 250ms.  That should significantly increase the performance once you find the sweet spot.
