1 – ECULog in a few words ECULog is a little, light and easy to use logger that samples and records channels coming from the vehicle ECU and from the connected CAN expansions It records the data both into the internal 4GB not volatile memory and in the USB-C memory card. ECULog allows the user to create math channels as well as a CAN Output using both the channels supplied by the vehicle ECU and these supplied by AiM CAN Expansions.

4 – Configuration with RaceStudio 3 software To configure ECULog follow these steps: • run RaceStudio 3 • press “New” button on the top right keyboard (1) • select ECULog (2) • press “OK” (3) • name the configuration if desired (default name is ECULog – 4) •...
4.1 – Channels configuration • Once the configuration created, the software enters “Channels” tab. It shows GPS channels, as well as odometer and it is possible to specify the fuel level. For these information to be available it is mandatory: •...
4.2 – ECU Stream configuration Entering “ECU Stream” tab a panel where to choose the connected ECU is prompted. Selecting an ECU that supplies information about fuel level the software informs the user as shown above and the corresponding channel is enabled in “Channels”...

As shown here below Momentary and toggle working mode only allows to generate a square wave whose duration of each status can be customized.
Page 18
When the status variable is set as Multiposition the different positions as well the time threshold (if desired) need to be set. On the contrary activation/deactivation conditions, possibility to record values and condition type are the same of Momentary and Toggle working mode.
4.6 – Parameters configuration Parameters Tab allows to set: Lap Detection (1): you can set the seconds the lap time is hold on the display; available options are: • from GPS: track width needs to be filled in • from optical beacon: it is possible to set a time period during which additional lap signals are ignored to avoid double lap time recording.

4.7 – SmartyCam Stream ECULog can be connected to both AiM SmartyCam 2 and SmartyCam 3 through the CAN Bus to show the desired data on SmartyCam video. The logger transmits data to the Cameras in two slightly different ways according to the camera and to the fixed setting. Available options are: •...
Page 21
To transmit a different set of information a SmartyCam 3 with advanced setting is needed; please note: this function is for expert users only. Please follow this procedure: • configure ECULog in order to transmit a different SmartyCam stream • select the SmartyCam stream in SmartyCam 3 configuration •...
