ADCS type descriptors for each PID

[myerstyler]

Hello,

I am working with the Automotive diagnostic command set and ran into some problems with the type descriptors needed to read each PID value as a usable number.  It is my understanding that the numbers come back in a binary format so im using the [Convert to Phys.vi] to convert them to a double floating point number.  Each PID requested from the vehicle needs its own type description to structure the data to be readable. [The engine monitor.vi] has two examples however im using 8 different PIDs and cant figure out the ones needed. I was wondering if there is a master list somewhere(becuase i was unable to find it) or if anyone has had experience with this and could help.  Thanks

Hi Myerstyler,

I also was not able to find any sort of master list of all the type descriptors. If you post your question to the Automotive and Embedded Networks forum you will probably have much more luck finding an answer as those are monitored by people with more knowledge on that product area.  http://forums.ni.com/t5/Automotive-and-Embedded-Networks/bd-p/30
