I’ve compiled a comprehensive list of PID operators and functions from various posts into one thread. If you know of any additional, post below and I will edit this post and try to keep near the top,or if Ian can STICKY, that’d be awesome.

I’ve found these:

* — multiply, example 256*A
/ — Divide, example A/10
+ — Add, example 256*A+B
– — Subtract, example B-10
& – Logical AND, example A&4
() — precedence operator, example (256*A+B)*0.1
{A:b} — returns the bth bit of the byte A. Least significant bit is 0, example A = 00001010b = 09h, {A:0} = 0; {A:1} = 1
[XX] – returns the value of a PID, where XX is the ID of the OBD2 sensor. i.e. [0d] (speed) or [ff1001] (gps speed)
Baro() returns barometer psia from [33] – Vehicle or [ff1270] – Phone.
A^B – returns A to the power of b
Log10(A) – returns the Log(base 10) of A
SIGNED(A) returns decimal value of A assuming highest bit is a sign bit
ABS(A) returns absolute value of A
VAL{sensor name} returns the value of the sensor, make sure this matches exactly. Sensor names are their untranslated names.

Piemmm,

Do you have a full list of all the math that is available? Even if you email it to me, I can write it up and document it here. I just don’t know if there are any more available.

Also, suggest having a MIN() and MAX() that returns a running minimum or maximum of a particular PID.

Hi,

Does Custom PID’s support “if” and “else” statements like in asp/php/vb ?

if ([0xff1208] < 7.0) A="ON" else A="OFF"

I'm trying to build a Custom PID which will display a static text as output value.

Any help will be great ...

Hi,

I’ll monitor the changelogs for future implemantations but for now as far as searched and understood “if” statements are not possible

I’ll try my chance for a simple “0” / “1” result with below equation ;

[0xff1208] < 7.0

So if above code returns 1 then at least I can use the simple on/off display and this will be a good start.

I tested this custom pid without connecting to ecu, the result was 0 and it did not gave an error.

I will post my test results earliest tomorrow at my Fuel Economy Display topic.

Thanks for the reply and detailed list post.

Best wishes

Is there someone that could explain what < and > do to a value?

I mean what is the effect to put A < 16 or B < 8 to an equation? What is the difference to use X < 16 or X < 8 ?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_shift

moreause, you are wrong – Torque use those as shift operators, not compare operators

a that make more sens

but if i understand correctly since A is a 8 bit value
shifting it by 16 would be equal to set it to 0
unless the end bit become the first bit…

{A:b} — returns the bth bit of the byte A. Least significant bit is 0, example A = 00001010b = 09h, {A:0} = 0; {A:1} = 1

error example A = 00001010b = 09h
must be A = 00001010b = 0Ah

Thanks Capp777

Good for us old members with poor memory also.

What about the length (number of bytes) of the received data? Is it available in a variable to be used in a formula?

1. VAL{sensor name}
Where can I see a full list of sensor name?

2. can I know the name of the variable “tank capacity” from the profile

The easiest way is to use Torquescan which
will display the long names of all the pids
known to Torque.
