Harry's GPS Suite Forum

Hi there,

I have the GrandPrix edition and am running an OBDLink MX Wifi with an iPhone 6 on a F30 3 series. When I export the csv file, it only provides 1Hz data. Is it doing that because it's using the 1Hz GPS sensor on the phone and averaging all the CAN values? Is there a way for it to report as much as there is available?

Thanks

Exactly, storage rate is set by GPS currently. You will get higher rates in realtime - for example OBD and acceleration. To get higher rates stored, please add a 5 or 10 Hz GPS accessory.

Thanks for reply- so is there no way to export the higher frequency OBD and accel info without upgrading the slowest reporting piece of equipment?

No, GPS is the drum beat. This will probably change at some time in the future, but it is a major change.

Is there anything limiting the speed written into the software, meaning would I be able to get 50hz resolution. I'm considering adding a GPS to my OBD stream, but before I buy a 50hz receiver with far less support than the 10hz models available I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't be a waste.
Thanks
Joe

LapTimer is able to record data at 50 Hz, this has been tested using ASL's RaceCapturePro/MK II. However, it is the front line and not as heavily tested as the standard receivers delivering up to 20 Hz. For most applications 10 Hz will be just fine.
