Can you change the scanguage display "rate" default to FAST?

The scanguage defaults to normal display rate, but my car can handle the "fast" setting on the display rate, but it resets to normal everytime I turn my car off.... is it possible to make it default to fast?

Not 100% sure, but you may have to press "Save" after making the change.

I'm running @ the fast rate on mine, and don't have to change it each time.

I'm so excited about this, I'm going to try this right now!!!

Do you suppose this would lead to more accurate measurements of tank gas mileage? Or do you think the refresh rate is completely unrelated to how the scanguage calculates averages?

I doubt it would make any significant difference, unless you're moving your foot more often than once per second.

Just checked... when I click more, more, then rate, then I chose "FAST" it takes you right back to your main guages screen and there is no save button.

This is the problem I had. I don't think yours is saving either and I think you're actually running romal... if you try it you'll notice that setting it to "FAST" will make it go fast but you have to do this every time....

:/

Sounds like a message to Linear Logic is in order. I wonder how speedy a reply you'll get now that they're so busy...

Yeah, let me know if you have the same problem as me, that way my arguement would have more weight...

My SG also reverts to 'normal' rate when it shuts down.
Any feedback from Linear Logic?
