Victoria,
Since my son picked up a relatively stock 1992.5 Laser, I thought I'd finally resurrect and port the old palm pilot mmcd to Windows, Linux and Mac. I finally have it connected and creating logs. So far it has been tested from my macbook using a cable I built myself.
Please consider this a beta release. I will keep fixing it up over the next few weeks and would be happy to have Windows and Linux users to give some feedback. I normally use Linux, but my laptop mainboard won't boot right now (will fix soon).
So where can you find this goodness?:
github.com
Binaries here:
github.com
Since the mac binaries are not signed, they will not work on your machine. Feel free to download and build yourself if you are using a mac. I do actually have a personal app signing key so I can sign these if there is enough request for it.
I am not responsible if the cable you build from these docs burns your car down, fries your ECU, or makes your significant other leave you. Same for the software (especially the software!). You have been warned! (It did work for me, from one mac to one DSM.)
This app has some interesting (maybe good?) features:
If I get enough time, I'll get this running on a RPi2w and have an Android and iPhone app to connect to it. That was the original reason for the headless mode.
Dirty details:
Once I believe these are all working plus some testing on Windows and Linux, I'll move the project to a 1.0.0 version. I do think it is very close.
Definitely a huge thanks to the original MMCd developer, Dmitry Yurtaev!

This app has some interesting (maybe good?) features:
- can read old Palm mmc logs
- has a rudimentary graph system to show your sensor values on a graph
- logs to csv format by default so you can import to your favourite spreasheet
- has both a GUI and headless mode
- the less data items you select in settings the faster you get data updated. This selection is remembered across runs.
If I get enough time, I'll get this running on a RPi2w and have an Android and iPhone app to connect to it. That was the original reason for the headless mode.
Dirty details:
- I haven't validated that any of the values I see on screen in fact match reality (they *seem* reasonable, and I do know his front O2 sensor is not working)
- perhaps the log files are complete garbage
- I am unsure if the DTC read works at all (anyone have a car they know has DTCs that can test this?). I suspect this car should, but I trust nothing about this DSM.
- I am unsure if the Test (like disabling fuel injectors and activating other ECU outputs even work). Test this very carefully. Let me know if it works.
Once I believe these are all working plus some testing on Windows and Linux, I'll move the project to a 1.0.0 version. I do think it is very close.
