hmm, unless there is a new release of lt1 edit software, it cannot data log. i have lt1 edit and it does not do that. lt1 edit can only on read/program your tune on the PCM. To data log/see it live, I use Autotap.

no issues , my version is from 2002 though and it's still perfectly fine. There may be better stuff out there now, i just haven't had the need to look. If i was doing it again, i'd try to find something cheaper.

I have added all the gauges I need on it and it's easy. Plus it helps that the guy that tunes my car uses it too so I can just get the dashboard config file from him.

From LT1 Edit's web site - http://carputing.tripod.com/9495LT1Edit.htm

Free software:

Once you've got the cable hardware, you will need some free software to check things out. Here are two freeware tools that will help you along

Want to see what your car is doing in real time? Try our free scanner for your car. Download the program, and run it on your Win98/Win NT Pentium 133+ or AMD computer that is connected to your vehicles Diagnostic Connector, and you are up and running. pcmcomm.exe. Here is the user's guide for this software: pcmcomm.html. (here is the readme file for pcmcomm readme.) The free version will only show the current values of these engine parameters on the screen. Want to enhance your scanner by logging your runs?? (Show your friends your top speed, and time to reach it) or display all those pesky Diagnostic Trouble Codes? Go to the order form and place your order for the logging scanner. Here's how you select the data rate datarun and here is a sample output log log_run.txt
Of course, you have to see what is already inside of your PCM. So here is a tool that will let you download the contents of your car's PCM to your PC pcmread.exe. Use this to read out the contents of your PCM. Here is the user's guide for this software: pcmread.txt

Works the same, but you need a different cable.

02's will not be needed in open loop. the egr and air are in a drag down menu on the main screen that says "function enable".

don't have the program at work, but go through the menu's it's not hard to find. I think it's in the emissions area and you have to say does it set SES or not for each sensor. really easy.
