This page contains basic information for DSMLink's loggable data items including minimum, maximum and “ideal” values and explanations of these data items.
| Listed Name | Common name | Measurement unit | Min Display | Max Display | Min Actual | Max Actual | Ideal value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A/C rqst (A/C comp) | - | on/off | -1 | 2 | 0 | 1 | - | A/C compressor requested on by A/C computer. The ECU can ignore this request as it deems necessary. ECMLink disables the A/C compressor when running wide open throttle, for example. So this value does *not* indicate the state of the A/C compressor. It only indicates the requested state from the A/C computer. |
| A/F Ratio | - | : 1 | 9 | 18 | 9 | 18 | - | Gasoline air/fuel ratio estimate. This is only an estimate! The calculation basically takes airflow per cylinder firing event and divides this by the amount of fuel that should have been injected during that same event. The user has to tell the routine which injector size, deadtime, and fuel specific gravity was used by right clicking on A/F Ratio in the graph legend and selecting “Props”. |
| A/T D | - | on/off | -1 | 2 | 0 | 1 | - | AutoTrans park/neutral switch. On a manual trans car, this is the input used for clutch switch wiring. If this value is changing as you press the clutch pedal, then you have not yet enabled clutch cut operation in the ECU→RPM dialog. |
| ACClutch | - | on/off | -1 | 2 | 0 | 1 | - | A/C Clutch |
| AEM35Bar | - | -inHg/+psi | -30 | 40 | - | AEM 3.5-bar pressure sensor | ||
| AEM5Bar | - | -inHg/+psi | -30 | 40 | - | AEM 5-bar pressure sensor | ||
| AEMWB | - | :1 | 9 | 18 | - | Gasoline A/F ratio from AEM wideband sensor | ||
| AEMWBgauge | - | :1 | 9 | 18 | - | Gasoline A/F ratio from AEM wideband sensor data. This differs from the AEMWideband item in that this version works on the gauge type UEGO controllers rather than the non-gauge type. | ||
| AEMWBgaugeR1 | - | :1 | 9 | 18 | - | Gasoline A/F ratio from AEM wideband sensor data. This differs from the AEMWideband item in that this version works on the gauge type UEGO controllers rather than the non-gauge type. | ||
| AirFlow | - | g/s | 0 | 400 | - | Airflow values. Uses properties to define preferred units and limits. | ||
| AirFlowPerRev | - | g/rev | 0 | 5 | - | This is literally airflow divided by RPM. It represents how much air is flowing into each cylinder per firing event. It's useful for a number of things, such as checking that your airflow at idle is roughly where it should be (around 0.28 g/rev when displayed with the V2 app, 0.24 gm/rev with displayed with the V3 app). | ||
| AMtrFuelPress | - | psi | 0 | 100 | 0 | 100 | - | Autometer electric fuel pressure gauge |
| AMtrOilPress | - | psi | 0 | 100 | 0 | 100 | - | Autometer electric oil pressure gauge |
| ApexELBoost | - | -inHg/+psi | -30 | 40 | - | ApexEL pressure sensor | ||
| ApexELEGT | - | C | 235 | 1300 | - | ApexEL EGT sensor | ||
| AVCR3Bar | - | psi | -14.7 | 40 | - | AVCR3Bar displays boost from an AVC-R boost sensor fed into the MDP sensor input. This is the 3-bar version, made by Denso. The label reads: “DPS-310-2000A 949940-6270 5v”. It has a socket on it for the AVC-R harness. The harness has 3 wires: Blue - Output, Green - 5 volts in, Brown - Ground | ||
| AVCR4Bar | - | psi | -14.7 | 40 | - | AVCR4Bar displays boost from an AVC-R boost sensor fed into the MDP sensor input. This is the 4-bar version. | ||
| Baro | - | in/Hg | 20 | 32.5 | - | Barometric pressure sensor | ||
| Battery | - | v | 0 | 18 | - | Electrical system voltage as measured at ECU | ||
| BoostEst | - | -inHg/+psi | -30 | 40 | - | Estimates boost from airflow per rev. On a properly configured car, this value should match measured manifold pressure pretty closely at WOT around 5500-6500 RPM. Above this RPM range, BoostEst is expected to fall off from measured. The BoostEst calculation is not calibrated to read accurately in any other RPM area. | ||
| CltchSw | - | on/off | -1 | 2 | 0 | 1 | - | Clutch switch (used for NLTS). This value will only change after you have enabled clutch cut operation in the ECU→RPM dialog. Until you check that box, the A/T D indicator will change instead. More details on the CltchSw page |
| CoolTmp | - | F | -40 | 420 | ~200 | Real coolant temperature value. This value does not include the coolant offset (if one is defined in the ECU→Dash dialog). To see the value used by the ECU for most stuff like fuel trim adjustment points or fan control while you have a non-zero value entered into the coolant offset field, datalog OffsetCoolTmp instead. | ||
| DynoJetWB | - | :1 | 10 | 18 | - | Gasoline A/F ratio from DynoJet wideband sensor | ||
| EGRSolenoid | - | on/off | -1 | 2 | 0 | 1 | - | EGR valve solenoid |
| FJOWB | - | :1 | 9 | 18 | - | Gasoline A/F ratio from FJO wideband sensor | ||
| FourBar | - | -inHg/+psi | -30 | 40 | - | Pressure value from 4-bar sensor. Not generally useful as the mapping is only appropriate for a hand-built 4-bar setup used internally at ECMTuning. Provided in the client just in case we need to send a datalog to someone that contains this value from our own car. | ||

| RawKnock1 | - | - | 0 | 255 | - | 2G only - RawKnock values are used by the ECU to track knock sensor noise per cylinder firing event. The ECU averages this value over time across the cylinders to arrive at a knock threshold. Knock values above this threshold result in ignition retard accordingly.
