The car is a fairly highly tuned 2001 996 Turbo, and I used to be able to get both speed and rpm readings on the video. I use a Dual XGPS150 and a plug in GoPoint OBD cable for my iPad running the latest version of LapTimer Petrolhead Edition (v18.3.6). My OBD cable is older so I have to use an...

I use Harry's laptimer with my young lady : a porsche 964 Carrera 4.
Unfortunately in 1990's, the OBD2 system was not use by Porsche. But I have find a converter from OBD1 to OBD2.
Harry, do you think that will work with your LapTimer App (iOS) with adding a ELM327 wifi interface ?

Hi Harry,

I'm running HLT Petrolhead on a US Samsung Galaxy S4 and using an OBDLink MX bluetooth dongle connected to my 2008 BMW M3.

The OBD dongle connects fine to the phone and I can read data using both the OBDLink's included software and DashCommand, but HLT is giving me the "does not...

Good evening,
I finally received my BT1 and noticed the following behavior. I plugged in the BT1 and loaded HLT. From the seniors page, I see the BT1 connected at 5-7 HZ. After a few seconds, the refresh rate will decease one hertz at a time until the green dot turns to yellow. The BT1 will then...

I'm going to simulate the ELM327 with a custom programmed STM microchip with a bluetooth connection and a CAN interface. What acknowledgements do you need as the connection is made from the LapTimer program to the OBD interface? Do I need to respond to any initialization requests, like the "AT...

Hi Harry, firstly thanks for a great app.

Have recently seen intermittent comms with the GoPoint BT1 unit. Works for a while 30-60 seconds, then stops, some times when on see gears shows one higher than actual and for some reason the speed shows 0 constantly. Though when ODB data disappears the...

Is there a way to have the gps and OBD data exported so we can overlay them in a video with have taken using another camera?

Ok on the surface this is pretty cool. The issue is that HP is not really one of the metrics I need. Is HP one of the PIDS that is at a high refresh rate? Will i see any refresh rate improvement if I disable it? I am concerned it is robbing precious OBD cycles.

If I disable the MPH PID from the...

Hi Harry,

I was wondering if/when Lap Timer will be compatible with the Automatic Link bluetooth sensor? I just picked one up and LapTimer doesn't seem like it's able to detect it. I'm driving a Sync-enabled Ford Mustang. I believe the sensor is using the car's bluetooth connectivity to connect my...

Since the beginning of the 2014 season I have not been able to use Harry’s Laptimer Grand Prix Edition (currently v18.3.3) on my iPhone 5 under iOS 7.1.2. I can no loger get the Laptimer to co-operate with GoPoint BT1 OBD2-adaptor in my 2010 Lotus Exige S. It always says something like “OBD2 rate...

Can I exclude PID's that I'm not interested in, like intake air temp, fuel level and MAF, and get a faster and more reliable update rate for, say, the BT1 dongle? I really only want RPM, wheel speed, throttle and maybe coolant temp.

I have purchased a BT1 Go Point and have only started to get it working with Go Pro 3 Black edition and HLT and IPhone 5. I have notice that OBD update rate is now red. because the new version 18.2 actually tells you this as previously before it didn't.

When recording with Go Pro and overlapping...

Hi Harry et al.:

I recently received an OBDLink MX WiFi (I was a Kickstarter backer), but I'm having problems with the OBD-II update rate while using HLT. I'm getting OBD updates about once every 4-5 seconds or so. HLT also shows a green and red dot together periodically on updates. It appears...

Noob question sorry..
I'm thinking of using this for Karting but unsure on how the sensors work as I'd like to add revs. What additional devices would I need to add a rev counter?

Thank you in advance

Hi,

I have connected the kiwi wifi OBD to the lap timer and all data are ok. When I use the iphone to overlay the data in the video, there is a big lag. Is there a way around this?
Is there a way to transfer all data (video and OBD data) to a PC, and then join them?

I also use a V-box sport to...

Hi Harry,

Is HLT able to record and overlay data from CAN, K-Line, etc (not ODBII) interfaces/protocols, perhaps by somehow using protocol conversion devices, if any exist?

I am asking because I use your app for motorcycle recordings. I wonder if you know of anyone successfully using HTL to...

Hi folks.

I have a 2013 Golf R and am looking at OBD dongles. Planning on upgrading my car to APR Stage 1+ and want to use the APR mobile dongle and their app.

Concurrently, I just purchased Harry's Lap Timer and am looking at the GoPoint BT1 dongle.

I've asked on another forum about the...

Hello,

I just bought a vbox sport and Harry's lap timer. I was considering using a bluetooth OBD as well but i paused. Is there a way to connect the OBD and the vbox via bluetooth at the same time?

Regards,

Antony

I have an Emerald aftermarket ECU (quite popular for Rover 'K' Series engines in Caterhams, Lotus Elises etc), and was wondering if there would be any way to get live information from it.

Although there is no OBD socket available the ECU is capable of outputting CAN data through a couple of pins...

Hi,

Does anyone know if there is a datalogger device compatible with the J1939 CAN signal (used for heavy automotive and industrial normally) that is compatible with the Iphone Laptimer ap?

I know from searching on here Harry has mentioned as long as the data device is ELM327 it can work with the...

Hi all
I'm new to the Forum and I have ordered a GoPro Hero+ camera, will buy Harry's LapTimer GP Edition but my question relates to OBD II dongles. I am looking at the KiWi versions and see that they do a Bluetooth and also a WiFi version. Which is best to use with Harry's LapTimer app and what...

Amazon says its unavailable. Although the GoPoint site shows it. And I read somewhere it was being upgraded and a new model due in May.
Isn't it of benefit to you, to have us get it from Amazon?
Do you know the status?

Thanks, Jim

Hi, I have little problem. After last update, BT OBD (i´m using ELM327) stopped working. BT GPS works fine.

I tryed unpair OBD from device and pair it again, remove from app and set it up again in sensor list but it didnt work. App shows me in sensor list OBD statuses over and over...

Attempting to setup for next weekend, the speed and connectivity of the OBDLink LX device is a bit buggy. Rarely reporting more than 2 Hz and connection up and down. Also unable to edit the list of fields to capture. I was able to do so on the lesser version of HLT using a cheap OBD clone but that...
