3 LogWorks Mobile (iPhone and iPod touch)

The LogWorks Mobile application can be installed from the Apple App Store. A
search for “LogWorks” will yield results for the application. Once installed you
should see the LogWorks icon on your iPhone or iPod Touch.

The LogWorks Mobile application has 5 different “Tabs” which can be selected

on

the bottom of the application pane: Dyno, Economy, LogWorks, DTC, and OT-2. Many of the tabs
offer multiple screens. These can be accessed by 'swiping' left and right.

Individual screens often have an 'i' button. This allows you to configure that screen. The button
also indicates OT-2 hardware connection status. Green means connected, yellow means
negotiating/configuring, and gray means no connection.

3.1 Dyno Tab


The Dyno tab is for making vehicle performance runs. If you have OT-2 hardware, the data from
dyno runs will be much more precise because information such as RPM and vehicle speed can
be read from the vehicle’s dedicated sensors.

To make a dyno run (5 steps):

1. Find a suitable test course. Ideally this is straight, level, and secluded pavement.

2. Press

the

button on the dashboard and select the type of run- either Distance Run or

Fixed Gear. Then enter the associated vehicle information.


3. With the vehicle stopped, place the iPhone/iPod Touch so that it is as flat as possible and the

top (power switch end) is pointed towards the front of the vehicle.

If you have OT-2 hardware, this is only necessary for power (HP) readings. If you do not

have hardware, this is VERY critical for all readings. Arbitrary orientation is not allowed because,
unlike many G-meter applications, all three accelerometer axes are used for measurements and
computations. For best results, the iPhone/iPod Touch should also be kept as stationary as
possible for the entire run.

4. Press the blue ‘Start’ button. When the button turns green with the word ‘Go’, begin the run. It

is not critical to start the run the instant that the indicator changes. The indicator simply
means that the software is ready. Measurements will begin automatically when you put the
vehicle in motion.


5. When the run is complete the software will freeze the dashboard so that you can review the

overall results.

For more detailed results, swipe left to the run log and then select the last entry. You can

also cancel a run early by pressing the green ‘Go’ button.
