Live Data Control

M1 Tune is able to display live data as it happens.

The values are displayed in a combination of charts, graphs and gauges. Displaying live data allows monitoring of the running engine.

At times, it may be necessary to go back in time to look at an event that occurred during the live data display. To do this, the Time Graph component is used.

To view a past event, the live display must be paused using the Pause button on the menu toolbar or by pressing T (recording of live data continues, but the screen is not updated). When M1 Tune live data is paused, the "Connected" icon flashes between and and channel values pause in all components.

After pausing, it is possible to move the cursor in the Time Graph back to the point in time that is to be examined (all components display values as they were for the time selected). From this position, you can zoom in and out to look at data in more detail, as is the case in i2.

Using the Pause function is a fast way to work during an engine tune. The engine can be ramped up through its range, then the M1 Tune live data can be paused. This allows the tuner to go back and examine in detail the ramp run, and all values from that point in time.

When the M1 Tune application is taken out of pause (by using the Pause button or pressing T), the component value displays and the Time Graph will return to the live display state.
