Logging brake application

[Esprit]

Hi all,

I've got the ECU polling the brake light circuit to test for brake application. I'd like to be able to log this data in the memory for analysis at the track. How is best to set this up?

I've got the signal coming into a switched input (AT3) and have set the function to 10 (Brake)... and that's about as far as I've got.

How do I set this all up so I can set up the M800 logging to see a binary output (brake on/brake off)?

Still finding my feet a bit with the software so reluctant to charge in and change a bunch of stuff willy nilly

Log status group 4. It includes parameter "Brake Switch Status".

Oh, great! Easy as that! Thanks!

Or maybe use a pressure sensor and log this instead ?

Brake pressure signals (front and rear) would be more meaningful.

Agreed guys, brake pressure sensors would be more useful, but this is just a road car that does some trackday work and I'd like to be able to combine the logged gear/engine/brake/throttle data with GPS data from another logger and video for analysis.

Agreed guys
