Target IDs for Catalyst Temperature

General Feature requests
1

The standard OBD2 protocol does feature PIDs for catalyst temperatures, as following (using the 01 “Show Current Data” mode):

  • 013C – Catalyst Temperature: Bank 1, Sensor 1
  • 013D – Catalyst Temperature: Bank 2, Sensor 1
  • 013E – Catalyst Temperature: Bank 1, Sensor 2
  • 013F – Catalyst Temperature: Bank 2, Sensor 2

The conversion formula is ((256*A+B)/10)-40, yielding values between –40 °C and 6,513.5 °C. For °F, take the °C value, multiply it by 1.8 and add 32.

However, as far as I know, there are no Target IDs for these in RD, or they aren’t documented in the Target ID list.

For example, I can read data for 013C from my vehicle via OBD2 and have it displayed in RD with a custom XML file. Right now, I can do this by either using name="" instead of targetId="" in the XML file, yielding a new input in “ECU Specific”, or linking the target ID of one of the “Dummy” inputs, since I don’t know how to use values from name="" in custom equations or Gauge Math, or if that is even possible.

These (and any other) values can be used with RealDash without built-in Target IDs. Specify ‘name’ attribute in XML file, and RealDash creates new input into ‘ECU Specific’ category.
