I have a Torque user question. Yesterday while tinkering with my Crank HP gauge I revisited the car profile to double check all my entries. While scrolling down, I noticed that there was a small check box for using extended Ford pid's that I had not noticed before. It was unchecked. I was tempted to check it but I hate to make changes when all is working just fine, but I'm thinking I should probably make that one. Has anyone checked that box, what will it change for me? I'm worried about loosing all the custom PID's or unintended changes to my set up.

FoMoCo,
First, thanks for your work on the layouts! I'm new to Torque Pro. Like another member mentioned, I am having trouble with the layout. I tried the dash file on both a Galaxy Tab 10in and also a Galaxy Tab 8in tablet. Both had same result with the layout being jumbled. Seems like a config issue almost. I was wondering if you could re-send the dash file or email it to me--maybe it got corrupted?? Or, do you think there are other settings we need to do to match your setup? Also, I know I need to add the custom PIDs, but unsure where to place the CSV file that is in the 'PID Take 2' thread.
Thanks for any help!

Is that what it looks like after you imported the dash file?SHOw-Me State said:FoMoCo,

I exported and deleted and imported to test and didn't have an issue.
I suspect having gauges with no associated pids may be causing at least part of the issue.....
One of the threads has the file and instructions to upload.
I would try that first then let me know....

Yeah, that's what I got, across two of the boards. Thanks for testing on your system--helps clarify probably not a issue with the dash file. I will work on getting the PIDs entered and see if that helps.
Did you drop the CSV file into Torque somewhere (I think it has all the custom PIDs)? Or, did you enter them all individually?
Thanks!!!

Bummer....I got the bulk import/CSV thing done. Layout still looks the same as my prior pics, only all gauges have appropriate labels versus ExtPID. I had even retored to default dials, removed and reaquired the files, then imported. No joy.
Only other thing I can think of is that I currently dont have a car profile set up. Not sure how that would affect layout though.
I was playing around with the gauges previously, so I sort of know how to build. I may just have to suck it up and try to mimic yours myself!
BTW, as for car profile, what values are being used by everyone?
Thanks!

Check on Forscan, see if the zero pops up. If not, likely Torque. If it does, at a similar frequency, adapter or car most likely. The more parameters being returned per sampling period, the more likely I think it to be the car, personally.
BTW, I have found Forscan sampling intervals to be inconsistent with the MX Bluetooth lately; too bad you can't specify a sampling interval ...
