OBD Fusion Dashboard Swappin' Thread

Agreed. I just had no real knowledge what it would show until we tried it. I was hoping that maybe BT 4.0 would be faster than my ancient one.

That makes sense.

Yeah. BT is a pretty narrow bandwidth, but it was our only shot at remote diagnosis as the guy is a bit south of me. Weekday traffic sucks! He's back to Stock now trying to get the dealer to try some TS logging, esp as I don't think it is the TC. Same 10hz-ish vibes at 30 or 70. TC showing locked consistently would eliminate it.

Tires were checked twice, though I did recommend a cross rotation test. Either way with wheel balance, the vibes would increase and maybe disappear at different speeds.

 

Torque and OBD fusion combined would be almost the perfect app. I like things about both, but use OBD more since it has more functions. Torque has better gauges.

I also like that I can connect to Torque in motion, where my OBD only connects while stopped.

 

Hmmmm, I can connect to OBD on the fly if necessary. I generally launch when I pull out, but sometimes I get sidetracked and it's a bit down the road before I connect.

 

Mine doesn't. I'll try fiddling with it.

 

I can connect on the fly too.

What phone do you have? Sounds like a safety setting to me.

 

Works on both 8 & 12 from my experiences.

 

Note 9. I get a communication error fault. Torque connects though...? It's not a big deal, I tend to not fiddle with my phone in motion anyways and would rather get it set before I go.

 

Here is a base @RushT inspired OBDII towing display with some additions. The source is here.

Done for a second gen iPhone SE in landscape mode under IOS 14.

My additions:

• Altimeter display (this comes directly from the iPhone, not the OBDII)
  
• Imbedded gear and digital RPM in center dial
  
• Colorful warning bezel: green, yellow, orange, red
• Easter egg: center ring bezel goes red when in 4WD
• With additional hardware, will properly mirror to '17 Taco OEM head unit display

 

Super nice work!

Let’s talk about that mirroring huh? How do you change sources from OEM to mirror? Does it scale to aspect on dash?

 

It scales nicely with no OBDLink source changes. The head unit is set to A/V input (provided by Avity firmware) and the display is set to “zoom”. My mirroring is done with an Apple HDMI adapter and a wired Avity-01 kit.

 

@brentano,

So Avity has to do a firmware update on the head unit? Is that included in the cost of the harness? If so, it looks like about $200 before taxes for the harness and the apple hdmi.

I wonder how many harnesses I can daisy chain off the back of my head unit. I have a germes, about to have another for the navigation inepterrupt, and this would make three!

 

No, a head unit firmware update does not take place. I believe it simply enables the A/V input already present in the head unit.

I also have a GermesLab front/rear camera set up and a nav override system and they play together nicely daisy chained with the Avity to the HU.

5. I replicated this dashboard off an image search. Left radials gauge increases from left to right. Right radials increases from right to left.

 

Nice vertical. And an interesting selection of PIDs. What’s your refresh rate like? I have about the same number of gauges and I’m about 1 per 1.5-2.0 seconds.

 

First time using OBD Fusion so I'm not sure what all it can display. My refresh rate appears to be around 2 seconds. Is there a way to increase it to 1 sec?

 

I think it’s a limitation of the system. It’s a query/receive and the Toyota bus rate isn’t the fastest from what I understand. I’d love to learn otherwise though.

Whenever I do logging, I usually make a dashboard with only what I want to see.

 

I am brand new to this forum. How did you get the colors in your gauges? I am an Android user if that makes any difference. Thanks!

 

@brentano can respond to his specific options, but you need to add ranges to your analog meters. Those colors represent the different ranges.

At least I hope that was the answer to the question you are asking.

@ColoradoSnoTaco

 

Thanks for replying. I am brand new, as of today, to OBD Fusion. How do you add ranges?

 

Nevermind, I have been operating in LANDSCAPE mode and could not see the DROP arrow for this! Thanks!
