Interesting CAN vehicle interface found here http://openxcplatform.com/

More overhead for the processor to work with... and didn't you recently say something about the STM is running out of CS pins?

yep, you did... http://rusefi.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=805&start=10#p13878

I doubt Frankenso could include this as a add-on module, but we did also create the more pins STM, as well other future options might make use of it.

However what I was thinking of is that it might be a software reference, which could potentially be integrated into rusEFI code. I'm not sure if that would help, but when it comes to OBDII messages it might be a handy reference. Or it might not, so I posted it here to get it some visibility.

This reminds of OnStar... could be useful for telemetry purposes.

Thinking a bit more about this, I realized it sounded very familiar.

I posted about this over 2 years ago: Jan. 16, 2013- http://ecu.zeeff.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=214&sid=0b5f9992d5c61f970f5dec5527bde082 The article I linked to at Ford's site at the time is dead. However, https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2013/01/10/ford-openxc-platform-is-now-open-for-vehicle-data--customizable-.html works and is as much as I can remember is the same article I had linked to initially, relocated.

It was an interesting idea back then, mostly intended towards "instrumentation", as in provide the driver with information; there's no consideration for altering or tuning the engine parameters.


So I have to ask, if it wasn't interesting enough to comment on then, why is it worthy of comment now?

Worthiness to post was based on visibility to primary developers. Back when you posted it, you gave it visibly to the primary developers. This time when I stumbled on it, I posted it to get visibility to the primary developers.

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish with you mostly negative post and I posted it first comment. To me I read this as high probability of drama with little content. Can you please try to avoid drama inducing posts and focus more on value add posts.

Seriously?

Do you ever really think about what you post before you click "submit"?
