I've noticed lately that when i log using the numbers screen instead of the graph screen my peak readings are different between the two. When you log in the numbers screen it tells you the lowest and the max number for what ever parameter your logging. my question is why when i save a log the max number i see on my number screen is always higher than the one on the graph screen even though its the same log?

For instance say i see that i see 10 counts of knock while i am logging in the numbers screen (i log 4 parameters so the numbers are large enough to see while driving) but when i take a look at the same log in graph mode (still only 4 parameters) i will only see a max of 6 counts of knock.

Which readings should i tune by?
 
I know with the pocketlogger software that the graph isn't the best way to look at things on the logger. You can drag your stylus across the graph and it brings up the different values for that parameter. The problem is that it seems to skip about 4 or 5 points when looking at the data series. Am I making sense??? It's kind of hard to explain.
 
Yeah your making sense. I noticed that same thing when i used to look at my logs with plviewer.

I don't really bother with the graph screen much anymore since they came out with the big number screen which is easy to see while making a run.

I just happened to notice this when i was having problems with my idc's. The number screen would read 110% but the highest i saw on the graph was 94% on the same exact log.
