LM-2: Digital Air/Fuel Ratio Meter Install

[wickedstangs]

Alright, Look what showed up today...:rock:

I will be working with it. I will learn the software and post a how to datalog with it.

Cool a Carrying Case I can take it everywhere. We can now do street tuning..

"While a car CAN be tuned on the street, and some functions like drivability and WOT automatic transmission shift points can ONLY be done on the street, doing WOT runs through fourth gear and public highwars is not recommended..."

Well after work today, I went for a little drive to a buddy of mine and asked for a favor

Here are is the nice carrying case opened..

We begin the installation and wiring of the LM-2.

Here it is at Idle..

The LM-2 combines an air/fuel ratio meter, a full-function 32-channel datalogger, and powerful software to deliver a complete tuning workshop for less than the cost of one dyno day. Whether you have a piggy-back fuel controller, race carb, aftermarket ECU, ODB-II tuning software, or a flash/chip programmer, an LM-2 is the tool you need to dial in maximum HP. The meter’s award-winning digital signal processing technology provides data on exactly how rich or lean an engine is running at any load. The LM-2’s self-calibrating circuitry also compensates for changes in temperature, altitude, and sensor condition.

• Patented “Direct Digital” Wideband Technology
• Wideband O2 Compatible with ALL fuel types
• Single or Dual Channel Version Available
• OBD-II Scan tool- read/clear DTCs and log up to 16 channels of CAN OBD-II Data
• Log directly to SD card (included)
• Playback log data on screen and/or with powerful LogWorks software (included)
• Large high-contrast graphics LCD
• Built-in RPM converter (direct frequency or with optional inductive clamp)
• 4 fully-differential analog inputs
• 2 configurable linear analog outputs
• Positive lock connectors for all connections
• Innovate MTS serial IN and OUT
• USB connection to your PC

The LM-2 also features two fully programmable linear analog outputs to connect to analog gauges, dyno computers, ECUs, piggyback controllers, and other devices with analog inputs. Analog output 1 comes setup from the factory ready for narrowband simulation; analog output 2 is configured as 0 volt = 7.35 AFR and 5 volts = 22.39 AFR. With the provided LM Programmer software these analog outputs may also be configured by the user.

Started datalogging today with the LM-2 and this system is pretty neat. I can monitor all the PIDs from the OBD port... Here is a little sample.. Only went to about 4000+ RPMs

Innovate makes nice stuff... I've got a WMS wideband that I am probably gonna install this weekend, so we can compare notes on the two.

Sounds like a plan.. Right now, the only thing I am not liking is that, I am trying to figure out how to convert MAF g/s to MAF volts or AD Counts.. Once I get that figured out, I will be able to tune any car I want :rock: Its portable and 1 touch record function with an SD Card. Remove the SD card and put in a laptop to view the logs... Now another way to see the MAF volts and AD Counts is to go back to the SCT X-Cal 3 and use the Analog cable and run the A/F signal from the LM-2 into the X-Cal 3... :hello:

Sorry, once I am done solving my issues :stupido:
