Default AIM Solo DL MY06+ users?

I've been frantically searching for MY06+ users with the AIM SOLO datalogger but little info is available. From what I read, the proprietary CAN protocols are not readily available for the S2000.

Do MY06+ users buy the OBDII version or the CANBUS version? Or do we buy CANBUS model and set the settings for OBDII ??

Ultimately looking to see what data is logged for the MY06.


AIM application list does not suggest CAN is available.

I have the "OBD" version on my '07--the models are the same as far as I know, they just send you a different cable. The OBD socket has CAN pins in it. I do believe AIM's instructions are wrong--they tell you to use the ISO interface, but I think it's the generic "CAN" one that actually works. I'll check it tomorrow. A lot of good data gets collected, but there's no interface to the VSA and the engine stuff is limited, so you can't see brake pressure or engine knock or anything like that. But speed, RPM, throttle, and temps are there. PM me your email address if you want and I'll email you one of my datalogs so you can see if it's the data you want.

That said, I really wish AIM cared more, because there's some great data in the VSA module and ECU. Then again, I don't know if the addresses for the VSA are even available to anyone. Hondata certainly has figured out all the engine stuff, though...

Here's a video of me driving poorly and then crashing at Buttonwillow with Solo data overlay:

For future reference, thepoi pulled the following list of parameters from his datalog.

For $700, the AIM doesn't justify its price compared to what I can get off my $80 Qstarz. It would be nice if AIM spent some development time and pulled everything available from the CAN bus.

Time
Distance
Internal Battery
Vertical_acc
Longitudinal_a
Lateral_acc
Calculated_Gea
External Battery
OBDII_RPM
OBDII_SPEED
OBDII_ECT
OBDII_TPS
OBDII_IAT
