Enginuity XML expression bug?

PostPosted: Fri Jan 04, 2008 9:22 am

Hi all,

I am new to enginuity and have been playing around with my own XML definitions. I am having a problem with setting expressions values. When I choose;

expression="10/x" to_byte="10*x"

I get the error from Enginutity that the values are invalid.

If this is wrong, how do I set up an inverse expression?

Thanks,
Rob

expression="10/x" to_byte="10/x"

Ok thanks. I thought the to_byte was the inverse of expression. Can you explain what this means and why Enginuity complained with what I had?
Is there a description of all the XML tags documented anywhere?

OH......and is there a way to have non-contiguous address listed in one table?

Thanks agian,
Rob

to_byte is the reverse expression. In your example, if the ECU value was 10, the displayed value would be 1, apply the reverse expression, ECU value = 10. The expression is a conversion from the ECU's raw value to a human readable value (or units you would prefer to work with). The reverse expression converts it back to the ECU's raw value when saving.

On the Enginuity site but it is currently down. If you have a question I can answer it.

No

Ok, I had the concept right, but failed the basic algebra test. It would have been nice to put a different variable for the for_byte expression for dummies like me :)

Another question; I have a 64 entry 2D static table that is so long it is completely unreadable in the table window. Is it possible to break that 64 entry row into multiple rows in the same table? I don't really want to break it into multiple tables.

thanks,
Rob

No, you'll have to break into multiple tables. Or you can use Ecuflash which displays 1d/2d tables vertically.

Is it possible to combine values from 2 different tables to make a new table?

No, not with Ecuflash or Enginuity. I think Ecuedit might do that, but it is shareware.
