If you contact us about difficulties encountered during diagnostics – we will most likely ask you to send LOG files. It’s not difficult, but in this entry we will additionally briefly explain the topic.
What does LOG mean?
LOG is a function in the MaxiECU software that allows you to register the process of creating an event log during communication with the vehicle controller.
Thanks to this, all information appearing during the diagnostic process is recorded, which the MaxiEcu user can see on the screen of a computer or tablet.
What’s LOG for?
First of all, thanks for it the MaxiEcu technical team can help the User with any problems. If the log received, our specialists have the opportunity to verify the operation of the software, check communication with the vehicle controller, evaluate the correctness of the read parameters, adaptation, coding.
If something find out incorrect, they can implement appropriate solutions.
What isn’t a LOG file for us?
Any reports, diagnostic protocols or recordings from the diagnostic process is not the same as LOG file.
The connection and disconnection with the controller, when the LOG function is active, also wouldn’t be enough for us – the process should be carried out until you notice the errors. There is only one exception – when your problem is just the connection with the controller – in that situationa the short connection with turn on LOG is enough to diagnose the problem.
