The serial port is always a 9-pin port.

Followed instructions and wiring recommendations from this thread. Fired up & works as intended 1st time.

Just for future reference, I powered the module via pin J of the accessory connector on a PNPPRO (.5A +12v) which makes wiring a snap since that connector also has CAN H&L. I tied the module ground into the same location as the stereo ground, and left the O2 sensor grounded to the main ground on the back of the head.

Awesome!

wackbards 10-07-2018 05:51 PM

Getting this error message every time I fire up a new session, but it doesn't appear to affect function at all. Did I set up something wrong?

Yes, go to vehicle project properties, CAN, select the module, make sure it's ID is set to 9.

wackbards 10-07-2018 06:02 PM

Huh. There ya go. I had gone through this step, but it was set as 1. Thank you sir. Easy fix.

wackbards 10-07-2018 07:02 PM

Now it isn't working. When the car is powered, the drop-down listing CAN ID 9 says: "no device detected"

wackbards 10-07-2018 09:54 PM

So things aren't working right. I was getting AFR signal before when I was getting the error code on startup, but now that I've set CAN ID to 9 everywhere, TS says "no device connected" when I try to select CAN ID 9 (or any ID #). The TS AFR gauge is just pegged to 14.7. However, the "Send AFR test value" mode will make the TS AFR gauge move. The AEM gauge is functioning correctly.

Also, the values aren't quite lining up: When I had it working previously (with error message), I noticed that the AFR displayed on the AEM gauge was about .1AFR higher than what was displayed on the TS AFR gauge. And now when I use the send AFR test value, every value is low on the TS gauge by exactly .1AFR except for 14.7. At 14.7, they totally agree, and then it goes back to being low by exactly .1AFR.

Sorry, for whatever reason, my screen shots are mega blurry.

Reverant 10-08-2018 02:58 AM

Did you only change the ID in the vehicle project tab?

wackbards 10-08-2018 08:36 AM

Yes. It was already set to 9 everywhere else.

Reverant 10-08-2018 02:45 PM

If your wideband is connected through the serial port (blue wire) to the module, then you need to select the plain "AEM UEGO" model, even if your wideband is the X-series 30-0300. The "30-0300" mode is only if you have connected the wideband to the module through CAN, and not serial.

wackbards 10-08-2018 02:57 PM

Cool. I'll try it out when I get home.

wackbards 10-08-2018 07:26 PM

Working! Thanks for your patience.

Does anyone have a copy of the v1.0.1 firmware for the can bus adapter that they can email me? The link in the original instructions is dead and I need to get this file for the new owner of my car.

Saber008 02-01-2020 07:28 AM

Are these still available for purchase? I have not heard back from my DM to Reverant or email to Trackspeed. I understand that Trackspeed at least may be phasing out of the Miata industry but I'm not giving my hopes up. I'm holding off on going to the Link sys CAN-Lambda, because of it's high price and no display, until I hear back about the availability of this CAN module.

Reverant 02-01-2020 03:13 PM

Unfortunately, it's no longer available.

Buying a wideband which reports values over CAN natively is a much more clean option in my opinion. I like these guys as they're more oriented towards industry and if you get the Board version it is quite compact (just get a CAN gauge if you want to read wideband/more in the car, you get a lot more functionality that way in any case). The option I recently purchased is the display-less ALM Board CAN with LSU-ADV (better than the old LSU 4.9s). It's relatively cost competitive with the AEM X-series. https://www.ecotrons.com/accurate_la...r/alm-lsu-adv/

Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it.

I'm going to look into this. Much more affordable than the Link CAN-Lambda. Thanks for the information.

DNMakinson 02-02-2020 09:20 AM

@Saber008 I have a used CAN module from MSLabs ( Reverant). PM me if interested.

Hernj65 12-14-2022 09:52 AM

Does anyone on this remember if they had more instructions other than in this picture shown? Basically I've been reading various threads about this module and it seems some people needed some type of ini file or update for the module in order to have it work. I'm trying to determine if I'll be able to connect this to my mspnp2 and if I will need any other files for the install. The TSE website does not work and any link I click on regarding this module and TSE is broken. According to reverant it should work with my mspnp2 but it also looks as though if I need any additional files that I won't have access to them.

I know this thread is ancient, but I'm curious if anyone has any copies of the INI file they could share with me? I've had the CAN Wideband module hooked up for years, and the car runs great, but never got around to reconfiguring it in TunerStudio after changing laptops. All the links to the files on mslabs.info seem to be dead. I managed to find v1.01 and v1.02 but TunerStudio reports an error when I try either of them (yes I'm using CAN ID 9). I suspect I need a later release, but I don't know which. I'd appreciate any INI files people are willing to share.

Reverant 01-17-2023 08:55 AM

The site for the link you tried is www.mslabs.gr - not mslabs.info.

akbloom 01-17-2023 10:05 AM

Thanks @Reverant ,you're right I had the URL wrong, I managed to get 2 files, but I already had them, I'm still stuck, they don't help.

https://www.mslabs.gr/CAN_Wideband%20Module_V101.zip
https://www.mslabs.gr/CAN_Wideband%20Module_V102.zip

I can't seem to reach any other files. I've tried replacing the blank space (%20) with an underscore, but I just get 404s. Are there other .INI files posted somewhere? I have no idea what version I'm looking for. I originally bought this unit from trackspeed and it came with zero docs. You and I went back and forth via email for months as I shipped my MS2e and Wideband CAN module to Greece, twice. You updated the firmware on the ECU and sent me a link to the INI file. I think you also updated the Wideband module, but I never got clear details on what changed or what version you ended up on. I'm happy to do some digging and tinkering, but I need the missing INI file.

Reverant 01-17-2023 01:28 PM

Try can_module_103.zip and can_module_104.zip

akbloom 01-17-2023 04:48 PM

@Reverant thank you! v104 was what I needed.
