DataLink Technical Information:

Graphs: With the DataLink graphs you can quickly see what your car is doing. Clicking on a channel button allows you to illuminate the graph line for that respective function, and you can illuminate as many functions at once as you desire. The different colors of each graph line help you identify each function at a glance. Graphs can be expanded or compressed, or you can zoom in for a full screen view on any area of interest.

Numeric Values: When moving the vertical cursor bar across the graph the numeric values of each monitored function, at the cursor’s position, will be displayed alongside its channel button. These values are present whether the channel’s graph line is displayed or not.

Timeline: DataLink relates all functions to a timeline. This permits you to pinpoint exactly when an event took place. Each program version lets you establish a ‘zero’ or ‘start’ point for the timeline. For example, this zero point might be opening of the throttle, the first revolution of the driveshaft, or some other identifiable event. The graph screen contains a small window that displays the time, to the 1/1000th of a second, from the zero point to the cursor location. Simply place the cursor on any event you see, and you’ll instantly know when it occurred.

Overlay Files: All DataLink programs, except File Viewer, have the ability to overlay the graphs from multiple files. This gives you the ability to quickly compare any recording against another. Diagnosing the results of tuning changes or driving techniques becomes instantly obvious.
