Hi, With your bluetooth module, can you paste the unit's log file when you first power up the unit? We'll be looking for messages related to bluetooth initialization. also, can you create a simple script that reproduces your scripting problem on 2.10.0 so we can test over here? Thanks, Here's a scr...

Bluetooth problem is a hardware failure

A friend sent me his RaceCapturePro2 (the only two in Thailand are now in my garage?) and with a second unit it was easy to determine that my bluetooth module has failed. How do I get a replacement? Or can I cobble one together from off-the-shelf components I can source in Asia?

Replicated the problem, now bluetooth is dead

It's definitely a firmware upgrade problem. My bluetooth connection also stopped working, so I upgraded again to 2.10.0 to see if that fixes the bluetooth, and the script stopped working again but not the bluetooth. So I downgraded the firmware to 2.9.0 and the script started working again. Still di...

2.10.0 Firmware Won't Print(integer)

I just upgraded to 2.10.0 and my working script no longer works. So I downgraded to 2.9.2, and the script started working again. One issue appears to be that print() and println() no longer automatically convert integers to strings as expected in standard Lua. Instead, I get an error about initSer e...

"Clear Script" Button on Lua Scripting Page

Maybe I'm missing something, but I find it very difficult to clear out an old script from the scripting window. With short scripts I can just click-drag-select and delete all the text, but when the script is longer than the window, dragging the left mouse button drags the whole window instead. I lik...

Time / Distance switch in GEMS

Hey guys, Having some issues with GEMS itself. When you have the data loaded and try to switch from time to distance mode it's goes nuts. As viewing data by time is nearly useless for comparison. Any help appreciated, Mat Walker DREAM Motorsport (F4, FFord) Pedders Racing ( GT86 Australian Producti...

Ability to disregard laps for "Best Lap"

Here's a really simple thing that would improve the live streaming. I'd like to be able to force the system to ignore a certain lap in the "Best Lap" display. Just right-click > ignore this lap on the offending lap on Podium would be all it takes. In Thai endurance racing, the cars are wei...

Re: 5 Baud Rate on Serial Port

Just got my new digital oscilloscope, and it turns out the GSX-R1000 uses ISO 14230 fast initialization, so the 5 baud rate is not necessary. Now I have to figure out how to get the 25 ms. low / 25 ms. high hardware initialization sequence, which should be easy. Then I can talk to it through the aux...

5 Baud Rate on Serial Port

Is it possible to run the auxiliary serial port all the way down to 5 (yes, five, not a typo) baud? This is the baud rate for ISO 9141-2 initialization, necessary to communicate with my Suzuki GSX-R1000 engine. I want to connect the aux serial port up via a simple level-shifting adapter to the K-lin...

Send SMS to RaceCapture?

We used the RaceCapture Pro 2 for a 6-hour endurance race at Buriram International Circuit in Thailand over the weekend. The drivers loved the predictive lap time screen and the Samsung Galaxy S5 ran for the whole 6 hours with enough battery left over for a call home. Unfortunately, one of our drive...

GSX-R1000 to HealTech to Serial Converter

That's exactly the feedback I needed. Thank you!

First approach will be (GSX-R1000 diagnostic port) to (HealTech gizmo to USB) to (USB to serial converter) to RC aux serial port.

USB / Serial / Bluetooth Communication to GSX-R1000 ECU

I see the Lua scripting page says the USB port is available as serial port 0, but recommends against using it as it " may interfere with normal operations of the unit". Is this still the case? I already have a device, the HealTech OBD Tool for Suzuki ( http://shop.bluemonkeymotorsports.com...

OBD-II to CAN-bus Cable, Active or Passive?

I'm trying to connect my RaceCapture Pro Mk.2 to the ECU on my 2007-2008 Suzuki GSX-R1000-engined race car. There is no OBD-II connector, just an undocumented connector that the Internet has figured out supports the K-line subset of OBD-II. I have the CAN-bus to OBD-II cable from Autosportlabs, but ...

It seems to me that if you can connect the K-line to the RaceCapture Pro CAN bus connector at the physical level, then the RaceCapture PID protocol should just work. This guy has a schematic of how to go from the single K-line to separate transmit & receive lines: http://www.clubwrx.net/forums/t...
