Yup. Gets real complicated when you have multiple levels of TTL. To set yourself up for success if you ever want to play with arduinos: Think of them only as SIGNAL NAMES. NOT DIRECTION OF "FLOW"
Is HTS the only software to view data in? Is there any android/ios app that uses such a bluetooth dongle to read data? I basically want to use a phone/tablet to view realtime data, i know of hondash but im tuned in chrome gold and they dont support it.
@@MixaL1s6804 You can use tunerview. You have to pay for it, but you can view the data on your phone. The only software on phone that I know of is hondash and tunerview.
Tx is whats transferring out of the ecu. Pin 2 on board. You need the other side to catch the signal on recieve. The software is requesting these packets, to send them to the computer it needs to send the signal to RX for received. Dont think of them as flows, just signal names.

Hi i bought the hc05 and i first started and tried to put on at mode red and blue light came on and started blinking slow. as i saw on video u only had a red light on. but i also had a blue one. is that okay? and also it could detect the com port. but as soon as i press connect it says couldnt go on at mode. but it was already blinking slow. whats wrong?
Thats kinda what I was thinking too. But didn't make much sense with how the ecu datalog pinout is. Unless the actual pinout is opposite of what the wiring is on the forums. I guess as long as it works. 😁
I followed all the instructions from this and the previous video and despite this, my hc05 will only stay connected for about two seconds, then shut off. Any advice?
I wouldn't now what's wrong. You're better off asking the guys at HTS because it's their software. I know there's been many versions since this video so they could have changed some of the coding.
Sounds like you're trying to connect using emulator. This tutorial is for datalogging. If you're having issues with your emulator, then you need to contact your emulator manufacturer.
can you program it wirelessly, like a normal ecu tuning ? or is there any delay on the readings? im planning to learn how to tune my own car :) (newbie)
No, this is a datalogger. It's exactly what the name is, it only logs data. In other words, it only reads data and doesn't write it. For you to write data, you need an emulator. The readings you obtain from the datalogger is used to make adjustments to your map. You then write the map in real time using an emulator or not in real time by burning a chip and swapping out the old chip with the new.
What about if your using a moates ostrich for your emulator, you still would have to connect your ribbon cable to your laptop right? Since the data logger and emulator are two separate USB connections
Yes, datalogging and the emulator are 2 separate things. So you'll still have to connect the ribbon from the ostrich. Only the datalogger will be wireless.
I've successfully flashed the HC05. My phone can detect it but Hondash app says can't connect to ECU. My notebook can't even detect the HC05 module. What could be the problem?
@@BudgetGears It was a setting I had to switch in Windows 11 to detect this device. Now I can connect with my laptop but HC05 doesn't transmit data. I tried switching tx and rx but still can't get it work. J12 jumper is removed.
@@BudgetGears Yes. The ECU is flashed with HTS rom. So it is on chip. Now I'm trying to connect with USB to serial cable but I get the same result so I think my ECU may be faulty. :( Or datalog can't work without emulator?
Yes, I've successfully used it on Hondash, but haven't tried TunerView yet because it required the purchase of the protocol and I didn't want to or need to spend the money for it. But others have used it on TunerView and had no problems. So yes, you can use it on phone apps.
Slave. The master function is more for devices that search for other Bluetooth devices. Like your phone or PC. Since you use your phone or PC to search for the hc05 to datalog, it should be set to slave. Slave is also the default setting.
Thanks for the tutorial, will give this a try! If you attach the HC-05 to the inside of the ECU, will the bluetooth signal still make it outside once you screw the ECU lid back on?
If you want RTP, then you'll need to run an emulator. The datalogger can be either bluetooth or cable. So you'll essentially have 2 connections. One from emulator and 1 from datalogger. If you're just doing it without a emulator, then just a datalogger to connect to computer and you'll need to remove your chip each time you make a change, burn the new rom, and then put the chip back. I'd suggest doing some reading on honda tuning to get the basics down.

@@Muzamil.Rind1 No, it's called a datalogger. It's in the name. It logs data. If you're looking to tune, you'll need a programmer. Either tune by burning chips, which is a eeprom programmer or by using an emulator, which would be the many RTP's on the market.
Hello, friend. I've tried to program hc-05 with HTS, but without success. Despite of this, i've programmed with other software, changed the name and it connects fine on my laptop. But the HTS software doesn't enable the START option on Datalog Menu... I had changed the COM port to COM6 and COM6 (ingoing and outgoing), but i can't even try to connect and see logs, because my software doesn't allow. You can help me?
@@k7franklinbr that depends on if your ecu is just a burned chipped or you're running a emulator. But essentially you need to read the rom on your chip or emulator and look at what's programmed. HTS is usually tagged HONDATUNESUITE in the last buffer address. You can also read the rom and then save it and try to open in HTS. It will give you warning or not open if its not HTS rom.
@@k7franklinbr its because I'm running a HTS rom. Here's what you need to try, create a new HTS map, burn it to your chip or load it to your emulator, whichever you have, now try datalogging. The datalog only works on HTS with a HTS rom. Here's another example, people use tunerview and the hc05 to have a digital datalog on their phone for their car, tunerview requires you to select the protocol for your map. So if you're using HTS, you'd buy the HTS protocol and if you're using crome, you'd buy that, hondata, you'd buy that etc. HTS software can only datalog a HTS rom. In other words, you can't have a crome rom and try to use HTS to datalog it. You'll need to burn HTS rom then you can datalog.
Why are you datalogging with a narrowband? You need to get readings with a wideband. A narrowband has a very limited range. I can't tell you if it's normal because your car needs to be tuned to stoichiometric AFR with a wideband first.
Depends on how you want to do it. Some drive with wideband even after tuning and some take it off after tuning. It is recommended to keep the wideband even after tuning if you're a built motor. It's a peace of mind when you've invested thousands into a motor. But wideband sensors tend to die pretty quickly. Really up to you. I honestly have no idea what you're doing. I'd say hook up your wideband and if you're wideband readings are what you expect, then you're fine. Narrowband only can read between 14-15 AFR. So you can imagine how inaccurate it is when you're car isn't always stoich.
@@BudgetGears got it, just want my car to run smoothly but it seems like it's not as easy as it seems. it has 100k miles on it, I've spent thousands already and now I just like to play around to know my engine better. It's D16Z6 btw, Thank you very much for your response :)
@@FeraAlfian-vu1wy That's pretty low mileage. Is your engine all stock? What kind of issues are you experiencing? If it's all stock, there's really no benefit in running a chipped ECU. You're actually better off running an unmodified stock ECU. The maps on a stock ECU vs a chipped ECU will run differently. I'm assuming since you're datalogging, you might be running a chipped ECU.
@@BudgetGears thank you I figured, do you know of a cheap way to tune an obd2 computer in specific I have a 98 civic ex coupe and want to tune the car but I don’t want to spend crazy money on ecu like haltech
@@hectorjauregui5944 I'm not going to say it's not possible to tune the obd2 computers because some have done it back in the day. But it'll be near impossible to find any info on that as it was not a common thing to do back then and something no one does now. Tuning your car in general will not be something cheap. The cheapest and easiest way to tune an obd2 car was to convert it to obd1. If you can find a cheap obd1 ecu, chip it, run a obd2 to obd1 jumper harness, and find yourself maybe a moates ostrich, that would typically be the cheapest way to do it. That being said, obd1 ecu's have gone up in price significantly and it's very old technology. It'll probably run you around 500-1000 for a ecu, with emulator, and jumper harness, etc. But still cheaper than the Haltech. You can essentially get a Fueltech as well. Those are reasonably priced, but still about 1000 for that.
Datalogging is datalogging. It only reads data. For uploading data, which is the tune, you'll be doing that through your emulator (also know as RTP (real-time programming). They're 2 separate processes. I don't know of any emulators that are wireless. All the emulators I came across usually requires a cable connection from ECU to laptop.

If the steps were followed exactly, then it should work. If it doesn't, then something else is wrong.
