B.U.D.S Log

If you would like to send me the log file. I’d be happy to take a look. Robert@TheGaynors.com

If you have downloaded the Log files and have a Dongle, You can view them.

Connect the Dongle to the computer. The dongle MUST be connected. (No Aircraft or ECU needed)
Open the BUDS program.
Select the LOGS Tab.
The Downloaded Files will appear on the Left.
Select a LOG File.
Wait for it to appear in the Right Panels. It sometimes takes a while.
The Upper Panel is a fault summary.
The Lower Panel has the fault details.

DESELECT ALL  Then individually select faults of interest.
The selected Faults will be detailed in the Lower panel.
Click on a Column name to change the sort order.
The Time stamps are ECU hours (HHH:MM:SS).  Not Hobbs hours.

This should get you started.

The File names are long.
The left panel can be widened to allow seeing the whole name.
There is a slider under the Left File Panel to allow seeing the whole name.
They look like ...

132456_Logs_7654321_ 2023-05-12_18-37-56.zip

Decoded as ...
132456 = ECU Serial Number
7654321 = Engine Serial Number
2023-05-12 = Date  (12 May 2023)
18-37-56 = Time      (6:37:56 PM)

The issue is that BUDS doesn't provide the same details for log analysis.  The log viewer has some features and determining faults over time.  I have created some of my own code to help with analysis which I have already provided to Harry offline.
