Fantastic I have a PalmIIIxe thats been sitting around doing nothing for years.
However
When I try to run the installer I get errors in 'ImGetModule' and 'ImGetDword'
Really? Those aren't part of the installer, I don't think. What version of Palm Desktop are you running? My best guess is to make sure you're running the latest version from Palm. The installer I use is from Palm also and I think it's intended for version 4.x.x or so.
I'll try that I'm running v3.1
OK, Beta4 is just about ready to post, but I thought I'd troll for some more feedback first.
Anyone had a chance to try MiniDash? Any issues or suggestions?
So, has anyone besdies me even tried this with their car?
For now, I've shelved my PalmDRB idea. There are too many differences in the protocol between the LM, SMEC, and SBEC. I may still go back to it at a later date. Most of the really cool functionality I planned for PalmDRB will end up in MiniDash before release 1.0 anyway. The only thing lost will be the advanced tests that the DRB provided. I don't think most guys need that stuff anyway.
Here's what I plan to add for MiniDash Beta 4.
1. The data exported to the PC is now scaled data, instead of raw counts.
2. A run summary page - this will be for calculating stats about a particular run (and exporting the stats to the PC). Stats include - Power, torque, 0-60, 30-60, 1/4mi time & speed, and whatever else I can think of - possibly some sort of wheel slip measurement, trans/clutch slip measurement, and
3. Code reader & database. It will read the error codes and pop-up descriptions of the error (descriptions straight from MiniMopar.net). I can't clear the errors from the Palm, though.
Haven't had a chance to try it yet. My car is still headless.
But very interested in trying once it is together.

Just need to get a cable made up to run mine.
I haven't used it yet but I fully intend to once I pick up a Palm for it...
Do you have support for the 86 LM yet?

Wow I didn't know there was even a Beta 1 yet. This is badass.

I'd love to try it, but all this hightech jargon is frying my brain...whats left of it. Care to make me up a kit that includes the Pilot with software loaded, a cable to plug into diagnostic plug/port on car, means to get upgrades and an instruction manual a pong player can understand?

I would very much like to build/sell cables to make the software as simple as possible to use.
The car is running again. I want to start trying this. Rob do you recommend a combination of parts to put together a cable? I haven't picked out a Palm yet, but I will probably go for as much bang as possible(speed, color, correct port).

I can pobably write you a recipe - it will depend on the Palm device you get, though.
Ok i'll pick one out and let you know. Thanks

Hey Rob, how about this one http://cgi.ebay.com/Palm-IIIxe-PDA-w...QQcmdZViewItem
is it a good choice or should I look for something better?

Well I can look at auctions at work, but can't bid. I was going to go with a Tungsten type since it seems I wouldn't need the line level converter then.
You don't still happen to have one for sale do you?

That's the minimum platform I designed it around, actually. You'll need to download an ap called Afterburner, though (an overclocking utility). And run it at ~26mhz to get decent graphics speed. Basically, you'll need ~160% showing on the Quartus Benchamrk utility to run MiniDash.
Well, it will actually run without Afterburner, but you will get noticebale screen flicker.
I have a Palm Tungsten T coming to me in a few days. Rob if you get a chance can you recommend the cable combination I need. I'll start putting it together after the holidays.

dude this program is sweet, couple days and I will be able to test it. It works on non-modified SMECs right?
