I'm hoping someone here can help me troubleshoot the issues I'm having with my OpenPort and standalone logging. I've followed the instructions in the beta thread but am still not able to get it working.
What works:
-I can read my ROM through the OpenPort using EcuFlash.
-Both of my SD cards read and format fine when inserted directly into my computer.
Things I've tried:
-Several different logcfg.txt files ranging from an unmodified (except for file name) "subaru k-line.txt" to highly simplified version of same. I even tried a variant of the "subaru can fast.txt" sample file.
-Re-formatting the SD card.
Evidence something is wrong:
-When plugged into the OBD2 port with SD card (with logcfg.txt) installed the lights never flash as though data is being read or written, they just proceed in their typical Red---Green---Blue fade sequence.
-With the OpenPort plugged into the computer, the SD card does not show up as a removable drive as the instructions say it should. I've tried this on two separate computers.
-The SD card is difficult to get properly seated in the OpenPort, and even more difficult to remove. It gets stuck when pushed in to release it. It seems the hole in the clear case is too small, and the card gets stuck against the side of the hole. Overall there seems to be something wrong with the SD card reader.
I've got an OpenPort 2.0 Rev E recently purchased from Tactrix, a Toshiba laptop running Win XP, and a pair of Kingston 2gb micro SD cards.
I suspect strongly that I have a faulty OpenPort. The Tactrix folks were kind enough to call to help me diagnose the original problems, but have not responded to additional phone and e-mail messages for a couple of weeks. Are they on vacation or something?
Any help appreciated.
