Android CAN Monitoring App

[priusfan]

hello mario
the dongle I am using is the one from andy honecker, I know by experience it works perfectly with iOn (around 10 used in France and at least one in NA).
May I suggest to try with other phones (I never tested my apps with galaxy tab)
it works normally with:
galaxy s2
galaxy s3
galaxy note 1
galaxy note 2
nexus 7
asus transformer tf 201
chinese 7" no name with BT

so: do not buy the expensive thing without need.

you can contact me by pm to check your dongle: you could send it to me...
do not worry, I will not sell it, I have some reputation on the web as an admin on this website

Hi!

I will try the apps with other Tablets and smartphones.

If nothing will help, I send you my dongle and you can test it

Thank you for your help.

Hi Xavier.

Today i flashed my Samsung Wave with Android 4.1.1 and have install your apps..
But it doesn't work
Your apps are ok, but the dongle lost the connection
Same problem like my tab2....

Tomorrow I can test with galaxy s2 and if that dosnt work, I wil send you my dongle..

And hope, you bring the dongle to life

How this story continues? Any news?

Hi.
No news
I didn't have a Galaxy S2 or S3 to test my dongle...
I think I will send my dongle to priusfan, so he can test the original Scantool

Priusfan.. you have PN ....

To continue...

hello
I sent a Pm to mario, so he can send me his dongle for tests.

 

[priusfan]

hello
I received this morning from Mario his obdlink.
the default serial was 115k , I swapped to 500k (this is a tricky operation) and tested on Torque with my prius.

it seems OK.

I will test on the peugeot iOn tonight when my wife comes back.
next infos within a few hours.

PS: the dongle from Andy is much better because it has the right parms, it is much smaller, it is less expensive.

edit: tested on my (my wife's in fact) peugeot iOn and sent back to Mario...

Hi Fans.

My dongle arrived from Priusfan but first contact with my Ion seems not ok

Some commands via blueterm and voila...
Contact with my Ion and the apps are running fine

But I must sent the codes before starting the apps... everytime my dongle is connected new to can plug..
The dongle doesn'tsave the new configuration...

Andy Honneckers dongle seems far better than the original scantool..

But first my dongle and my Tab2 7.0 with android 4.1.1 are OK

hello

this is a bit strange because the sequence of commands sent with blueterm is exactly he one used in my app.....

anyway, andy's dongle is definitely better because of size & price and also it arrives with the best parameters (serial speed @500kbps).

Hi xavier..

Hmm....
Is it a timing problem of my dongle?

Thanks

[BurgerMario]

Hi .

I do some tests with my dongle.
It seems, the problem are only the filters...
I only send the st commands with blueterm...
Voila... connection ok, apps starting and I have connection

How can i save the settings ?

Hi there,

I very new to installing apps on a smart hone but I managed to install the ion bt monitor and it seems to run on my LG-P705G

Now a couple of questions. Where can I get a bluetooth -odb dongle that was tested with this app. Also where is the ODB port on the car ?

Thanks in advance if I get this working and I am able to log data then I can also start working on a PC program to display/analyze some of the data and perhaps I can contribute to the cause. I have some programming experience with labview and I like the speed that you can develop things on it.

Thanks for the info.

Don.....

Now a couple of questions. Where can I get a bluetooth -odb dongle that was tested with this app.

...
a) a cheap elm327 BT dongle will never work with my devs.
why: because my devs are based on STN1110 because I need efficient CAN filters.

b) never user torque on an iMiev: you can loose brake assistance.
How I know: because a guy somewhere in france made the test for you....

to make it short, the only (/less expensive) way to use my app is to use this dongle

Also where is the ODB port on the car ?

In my Euro clon, between the steering wheel and the brake pedal.

Does anyone have the most recent spreadsheet with the discovered values and formulas?

I'm finally able to find some time to get back to this project. I'm taking it in a different direction than the group is currently going with (a bluetooth dongle and an android tablet). I have neither of these things and don't wish to invest in them either. As a .net software engineer using Windows operating systems, with the time I have I need to go with what I got instead of having to learn another language and/or syntax. I have my modified LeafCan working with the i-MiEV - meaning its sending out the necessary data from a corded ODB-II adapter. I'm now working with my FTDI cable to pickup that data and read it into a Windows form application.

Hopefully, this weekend I can run some in-car tests to see how my FTDI code is working. If all goes well, then I can start hooking up that data to charts, graphs, gauges and controls.

Bonjour
I will try tomorrow to prepare an excel spreadsheet with the details.

as a first step, can you communicate with the car with your interface?
a serial speed of 500kbps is necessary if you do not use filters... (115k with filters)

the initial seq for elm based device is something like:
str_init(0) = " " ' just for fun
str_init(1) = "ATSP6" & Chr(13) ' CAN 11 bits @ 500k
str_init(2) = "ATE0" & Chr(13) ' Echo OFF
str_init(3) = "ATH1" & Chr(13) ' Header ON
str_init(4) = "ATL0" & Chr(13) ' no crlf
str_init(5) = "ATS0" & Chr(13) ' suppress spaces
str_init(6) = "ATMA" & Chr(13) ' show frames

for device based on STN1110 like obdlink, you could use:

str_init(0) = " " ' just for fun
str_init(1) = "ATSP6" & Chr(13) ' CAN 11 bits @ 500k
str_init(2) = "ATE0" & Chr(13) ' Echo OFF
str_init(3) = "ATH1" & Chr(13) ' Header ON
str_init(4) = "ATL0" & Chr(13) ' no crlf
str_init(5) = "ATS0" & Chr(13) ' suppress spaces
str_init(6) = "STFCP" & Chr(13) ' Clear Filters
str_init(7) = "STFAP 346, FFF" & Chr(13) ' put filter
str_init(8) = "STFAP 374, FFF" & Chr(13) ' put filter
str_init(9) = "STFAP 373, FFF" & Chr(13) ' put filter
str_init(10) = "STFAP 412, FFF" & Chr(13) ' put filter
str_init(11) = "STFAP 298, FFF" & Chr(13) ' put filter
str_init(12) = "STM" & Chr(13) ' show frames

I will try to come back with details...

edit: here is a short spreadsheet with some observations
and here the module I am using for calcs (should be easy to adapt to .net)

Hi all,

I am interested in creating an Android App similar to CaniON, but I don't know anything
about CAN-Bus. What I want is to retrive some data from the iMIEV obd2 and send them
to a server for remote monitoring.

As I can see you don't make requests to the OBDII adapter like Torque does for example to
take the speed it makes a request known as OBD-II PID 010D\r and gets back a response.

Correct me if I am wrong. You set some filters using the MSGids and you are "listening" to what
the CAN bus sends? Then you capture what you want and decoded it?

As I have read OBD-II PIDs are not standarized for EVs so this is why you use that tecnic?

Regards,
Giannis

Hi,

Sorry for dredging up such and old message. I would like to adapt the program for Honda Clarity, but the google doc link is no longer working.Can I get a copy of the code, please?

Thank you.
