Hi guys,
I'm sure that this is something obvious, but it seems that I miss it Basically, could you please let me know, how can I know, which channels are availiable via standart OBDII and which names should I use for them? I've connected the OBDII cable and tried to adding the most obvious one, RPM - it worked. But if I for example want to get MAP or throttle position, how do I need to name these channels for they log the correct data via OBD?

Are you asking for standard OBD parameters or custom PID mapping?
Can't comment on custom mapping but here are the regular steps:
Normally you just go into "Setup" --> "OBD-II" and choose parameters as you like... Pick one parameter, set the logging rate, add another parameter by clicking the (+) symbol and so on.
After writing the config you can go to the dashboard mode and when you look at the overview page, where all parameters are listed, you will see the names of your former choosen parameters. Any working parameter will show a sensible number, non supported parameters will show zeros all the time. Other than that I don't know a better way how to find out which params are supported by your car and which aren't.

Thank you! But the main question here is, what is actually meant under chooseMikeD wrote:Are you asking for standard OBD parameters or custom PID mapping?

Because I see this screen in the following way (screenshots attached) which rather lets you to set up the channels rather than choose.
