Is it possible to Connect Motec m400 ECU controller directly to Labview for data acquisition

[chat123]

Hi,

I am using Mo-TEC M400 ECU controller to run a test engine.

I want to log the measured data from the ecu. 

Currently the ECU controlling is done by the MOTEC ECU Manager software, (without data logginhg facility) connected though USB port.

Cylinder preesure, rpm amd temeperature data are now fed to the ECU usind sensors and all measured data can be seen realtime by the ECU manager software.

Is it possible to extract measured data form the ECU though Labview. Can Labview identify Motec as a data aquisition device.

You help  is much appreciated.

Hello chat123,

Does the device you mentioned have any instructions on how to interface with LabVIEW? Were some specific dlls included with it?

Hi Shalini,

Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately, there are no such instructions in the manual.

You may find more on motec on this.
