Does Yourdyno not natively do real time power and torque graphs?
Yes, this is currently not supported. It is on the to-do list too, although not in the immediate future. You would right-click to select Analog, Digital or Graph. I agree it is very useful for some parameters!
Thank you very much for your answer, I will be waiting impatiently. :)
A few notes on the latest Beta release 3.2.25:
- Ability to edit comments after the run, no longer only upfront
- Improvements to Load Control brake mode (support for Advanced control, better regulator)
Enjoy!

Scantool graph can graph every sensor thats connected to YourDyno box (hp and nm included).
It doesnt need to be connected to any cars datalogging stream to use the graphing feature.
Personally I use the graph most for the same reason youv explained which is its easier to read NM torque in a line graph when adjusting timing in steady state then trying to read numbers.
Here is a screen shot of what it would log with no datastream connection.

You don't understand me.
In Yourdyno during measurment HP, Torque, RPM, AFR etc. are displayed on gauges (analog or digital) . I need to be displayed on the graph. This is more readable to me than individual gauges.
Scantool reading parameters from OBD2, not from rollers.
Scantool plugin has real time graphing, Not exactly whats your asking for tho.

Like here:

from 1:07 to 1:35
x axis - rpm
y axis - hp on wheel
black line - hp on wheel during measurment
blue line - lossless during deacceleration
But you could turn on and off the rest of the parameters from the gauges on this graph
Can you explain more what you mean by real time parameters.
Hello, I have been using yourdyno for several months, I am very happy, but I miss one thing, namely the presentation of real-time parameters during the measurement on the graph, not just the indicators. Do you plan to introduce such options in the software? Other dynamometers have this function (eg dynomet).
With inertia there are a number of ways you can approach it. It would be good to set the dyno inertia bit it’s. It way to do as any measuring will also incorporate the vehicle inertia
Dyno dynamics do it with shoot out modes with various settings for engine configurations and drivetrains. Such as 4 6 or 8 cylinder. The idea is an 8 cylinder car has more inertia than a 4. Then there is drivetrain. 4wd has more than 2wd. These of course are all estimates. The most accurate way is to measure every car but it might not be practical. Some default presets may help.
Good idea on the inertia. Possibly have inertia set like today which represents the dyno's inertia, but with an additional car based inertia that can be set per car.
Bmgjet, yes, I see this can be improved as well. I would be happy for some demo code that I can get going with.
Jostein if your going to re-work the profiles stuff, It would be nice if you simplified it a little further.
Lock main dir as a selected location in the options. New Profile button opens input box to enter name and makes folder in that name for you.
Double click profile opens it.
My Documents is where I have mine set to go, And its a mess with a little over 200 folders now. Some profiles also always ending up with in different cars profiles when one of the other works has clicked wrong thing in wrong order.
I could probably make you a demo in C# of what I mean.
@Dev At the moment if you need to edit them you can print dyno sheet to image first, Then edit it in something like Paint and print from there. Thats what I do.
One dyno day I had and wanted to water mark every dyno sheet I saved them as pdf and had foxit pdf editor watermark automatically and print them when a pdf would show up in its input folder..
A litte more work doing that but it keep the hardware requirements to show graphs down. As it is my dyno rooms computer struggles with 12 graphs. Makes it hard for who to kick off the leader board.
Couple of practical points for those of us that test a lot of cars:
Inertia saved in sessions:
with light rollers, the intertia of the vehicle can be a large contribution, so it would save a lot of time to have this setup for different vehicles. An SUV has a much higher intertia than an AWD Golf.
Freely editable text and images:
An option to insert an image and text onto the graph, for example a picture of an arrow to point out a specific part of the curve then some text as a note. Car logo's could also be used.
Thanks!
Greetings tuners!
