Follow these instructions exactly. Forget the “graphing” from the main screen, or sending yourself logs.
Lets start from the beginning.
Go to set up your vehicle profile first (on the main screen hit your menu button, then go to vehicle profile and set one up if you haven’t already done so).
Next, exit back to the main menu and go to settings (on the main screen hit your menu button, then go to settings).
Go to UNITS and set all of your units to what you want. I assume you’re in the US, so check: Miles, Feet, PSI, Gallons, etc. This will get rid of your issue with PSI.
Then go to “data logging and upload”.
Then go to “select what to log”. You only choose what you want logged here. There is no place to choose where to log. All the logs are put into a default torque directory. When you connect to the computer and the android device shows up, you look on the internal SD card of the device and there should be a directory called “torqueLogs” and all logs are stored in there. The logs are .CSV files. They’re comma separated values and open office will read them, but you’ll need to tell it how to process the data. You’ll have to read up on how to open CSV in Open Office. Once it’s in there you can use openoffice to graph the results as you see fit.
Next, go under “file logging” and select logging interval. This is as good as it gets without buying expensive equipment that can log faster values. OBDII dongles are only so fast, so there’s a limit.
Select “log when torque is started”… that way you don’t have to stop and start it. You just start torque, do your run, then exit torque and one CSV file will be created.
Select “only when OBD is connected”, that way torque waits for a connection to begin logging.
Select “automatically log GPS”, that way you get a nice timestamp and other data that you might find useful, like acceleration and coordinates.
Select “rotate logfiles” so a new CSV is made each time.
Exit back to the main menu, restart torque, and off ya go.
To get data, start torque, wait for a connection, do your run, then exit torque.
To get the data off the phone, connect the phone to a computer, navigate to the internal SD card, and find the torquelogs directory. Go in there, get the logfile you want, and open within openoffice.
