3.2- Accessing Monitor Mode

The  Trinity  Allows  users  to  view  virtual  gauges  at  the  touch  of  a 
button  (or  screen  if  you  prefer)!  Let’s  look  at  how  you  can  start 
monitoring live data as soon as you plug the tool in.




NOTE:Monitor  mode  does  not  record  live  data,  for  information  on 
recording logs please see section 4 later in the manual.  

Step 1: 
Select
“Monitoring”
from
the
Trinity’s
main
menu.
Choose
from
a


pre‐existing
gauge
setup‐
this
can
be
either
a
DiabloSport
factory
default,

or
a
custom
gauge
setup
that
you
have
created!
For
more
information
on

creating
your
own
gauge
setup,
see
the
Section 4.3
later
in
this
manual.


Step 2: Drive
your
vehicle
and
view
the
virtual
gauges
in
real
time.
Many

DiabloSport
 setups
 will
 have
 more
 than
 one
 “Gauge  Page”
 or
 bank
 of

virtual
gauges.
You
can
switch
between
different
gauge
pages
on
the
fly
by

touching
the
screen
or
using
the
up
and
down
buttons
to
the
right
of
your

Trinity
screen.


SECTION 4: Trinity Logging
Menu

The Trinity comes with several pre‐set gauge layouts already optimized 
for  your  vehicle;  however,  you  may  need  or  want  to  create  your  own 
custom gauge layout. This section will detail the specifics of making your 
own layouts with your Trinity.  

Trinity  owners  can  not  only  view  data  streaming  directly  from  the 
vehicle’s PCM, but also record this data for viewing at a later time. This is 
extremely useful while road testing when a user can not pay attention to 
the gauges.   

In the logging menu you will be able to play back any previously recorded 
data.  You  can  fast  forward  or  rewind  to  search  for  specific  events  in  a 
time  line.  The  Trinity’s  logging  section  is  broken  down  into  three  main 
items:  

Log files: A
log
file
is
recorded
PID
data
from
your
vehicle.
When
you

record
a
log
file
the
Trinity
saves
the
gauge
layout
it
was
recorded
in

for
later
viewing.
In
addition
to
viewing
log
files
on
the

Trinity
screen

they
can
also
be
loaded
to
your
PC
and
viewed
with
DiabloSport’s
free

Data


Viewer


software


(available


for


download


at


www.diablosport.com

).
See
Section 5.7
for
more
information.
 

The
 more
 parameters
 you
 log
 with
 Trinity,
 the
 longer
 the
 interval

between
samples
from
the
vehicle’s
computer.
A
vehicle’s
PCM
only

has
 so
 much
 bandwidth
 to
 send
 diagnostic
 data
 to
 external

equipment.
 The
 PCM
 sends
 one
 sample
 of
 parameter
 data
 and
 then

moves
to
the
next
parameter
in
queue
and
sends
that
data.
The
more

parameters
 the
 PCM
 has
 in
 queue
 to
 send
 to
 the
 Trinity,
 the
 longer

the
 interval
 between
 samples.
 Best
 results
 are
 obtained
 when
