Nice Work Jostein!
ill give it a go tomorrow. Did you had time already to implement a ‘road load’ simulation when having a coast down from a car. Like the excel I once gave you where you enter time from speed checkpoints and vehicle mass and then end up with a 2nd order force f(speed)?
Thanks for your ongoing updates J, much appreciated. The database is great, such a quick and easy way to navigate through a large number of old runs.
I had been hoping for a change in the way the graphing colors work and the new 'styles' go a long way to fixing this and it is now much better.
My preference would be to have each run use the same color for power and torque. So run1 is (for example) dk.blue for hp/tq and run 2 is red for hp/tq, 3 is black etc, like the way Mainline and Superflow do it.
I don't care that the colors then wouldn't match the Y axis label colors.
Regardless, even if the coloring stayed as is (it's much better than before) but having the option to automatically apply a different style to each successive run would be 99% as good in my eyes (literally :). The most recent run always being the solid line style would make it fantastic.
Also, the change to the way the cropping tool works is not helpful. I had a run where the curve turned underneath and backward at the end and now its impossible to only remove the unwanted part which is under the main curve.
It appears that an erroneous crop is also now committed/saved to the run in the database as the run where i did this seems to have been permanently cut off at the end now?
One last thing and largely unrelated to the new update. I was hoping to see full control over selection of units. I like to use HP, FtLb, DegC and km/h. I'm doing it with a few math channels but it's untidy and I still have Nm in the run summary as my primary selection is 'metric'.
I know it's impossible for you to please everyone as we all have different preferences and use the system for different applications.
Thanks again for the regular updates, it's a great system 🙂
Hi,
Thanks for the good feedback.
On the cropping, you should crop in Results vs Time. This solves the problem you describe where you want to cut the part of the curve that is the return back after hitting max RPM. Go to Results vs Time and crop everything after max RPM. You can crop in any graph and the other graphs are updated.
You can undo a crop by Right click->Undo graph crop. It remembers all crops that were done.
On the colors and styles, there are a million opinions on what is the best way. It is pretty configurable now; quick to swap styles, and you can use a mix of defined colors and different colors on left and right axis. Maybe we will add more functionality here, I will check feedback after a while.
Yes, your input on more granularity on the unit selection is good, and on the to-do list.

Thanks Jostein,
For some reason I thought there was no undo on cropping, so that's great news.
You are 100% correct on the impossibility of pleasing everyone with the colors. The styles is a big improvement on the previous method regardless, so thank you. At the very least, each run having a different style applied would make it easier to differentiate the 1st and 2nd runs.
Great news on the expansion of engineering units options.
Thanks again for all your work 🙂
Hi folks!
Nice to see all the good feedback on the new software version.
Here is an important fix: Version 4.0.32
It fixes a bug where runs were not stored correctly in the database if Auto stop and Retardation run both were on.
Any issues, let me know.
Hi,
I just imported 2-3 car's run with 2-5 short sessions.., when click on the load checkbox the loading a little painfull, takes 20-30 seconds, no any feedback and the UI is unresponsive.
it's normal on a core i5 7th 8G RAM W10 ?
@hondarulez no, it should just take a second or so. Export the database and send it to me and I can check here. Send to jostein@yourdyno.com
I updated to the new version; database upgrade is great ! when i restored all my options from file it did not import the graph Tabs, looks like everything else did import just missing the Tabs, did i miss something? or is this done on purpose?
Hi folks,
Another quick update, version 4.0.33.
Fix: Printing bug
Note: If you experience slow loading of runs from the database, turn off Average channel calculation on all channels (Options->Average Calculation)
Hi,
Some new experience..
Run windows/Brake setup/select visible tabs
The disabled tabs should be removed from the BrakeControl/dropdown menu.
Main window "re-Run" checkbox should be disabled after the 1st press and reenable just after the rerun finished.
because no any feedback and may takes long time, pressing several time it will makes alot of copies...
Probably BUG:
after a run, adding a new math channel then "re-run" the channel value will be in the newly created run but the source threated as 0
as on the image, map5 defined as "CAN-DLog.MAPv" * 5 + 12, on the result just show as constant 12 while the CAN-DLog.MAPv changing..
I think also something w the re run is a bit buggy. Ive re ran a run w the same settings (first clicked the load options button and loaded the engine/vehicle dependent settings). somehow the lambda channel doesn't get plotted in the re ran run, and the brake % is shifted by 500 rpm somehow. the wheel power/torque is also just so slight different, which I don't really understand the reason for it yet.
Upgraded to the latest version. The plug-in's do not seem to work. The Canbus plugin does not work after re-entering the same parameters for the data channel. The PTH200 eternal temperature plugin does not work. The folder location for the software is correct, but it does not detect the sensors. I uninstalled and went back to version 3.3.97 and all the stuff is working again.
@hansl the plugins are now here: c:\ProgramData\UnaVisionPlugins. Put the CANTool config there. For the PTH200 you need to enter the folder location for the Dracal program. This is normally C:\program files (x86)\DracalView. You should find the file usbtenkiget.exe there.
Hi All,
I've had an issue switching from 3.3.97 to UNA Vision 4.0.33. Its seems the dyno settings have not transfered corretly causing the Software to not recognise the dyno rpm. The gauges indicate rpm. Setting gear ratio i get error - your dyno cannot calculate gear ratio when roller is not operating. Staus = Idle.
Uninstalling and starting fresh fixes the issue. importing the initial backup causes the fault to return.
I just want to import my load cell calibration so i dont have to dissassemble the dyno for calibration.
Very excited for the new Software!
@max-irvin check the RPM settings in Options->RPM and Frequency channels. If you cannot figure it out, send a copy of the settings to jostein@yourdyno.com and I will take a look.
