Ok here's what I've got. 90 AL9 tweccer rt, I'm using BE to data log and program. I have had this problem for awhile now, it seams that when I into heavy or WOT once the RPM reach's 5400 and above all the channels I'm logging just flatline. I've rewritten the time from scratch. I've tried logging from a different computer. I also have an 8 channel dataq device, it keeps logging fine after the flatline. I know it's separate and outside of the AL9, I've looked over most of the wiring that I've added to the car, looks good. I'm guess I'm trying to find out if this has happened to anyone else, and some ideas as to what is causing this?

Log just one PID, say RPM, what happens?

Good approach, I'll give that a try in the morning.

Ok, I have been just logging RPM. I get a lot of nose or unusable data. I get large consistent spikes up into the 15 to 20k range. I also noticed tonight that when I Cruz our accelerate above 2500 rpm, that the Charing system battery light glows dimly. The voltage gauge shows 13.5 to 13.75 volts. And after my 45 minutes drive the battery reads 12.77 volts. I'm just lost as to what direction to go.

Should not be possible to read out 20000 RPM, the maximim binary value is equivalent 16,383.75RPM.

definitely a software issue

most rpm spikes can be fixed by hooking a ground from the distributor housing to the block

Ok, I've repaired my windows OS install. I've also then reinstalled BE. The RPM spikes are gone. I still can't get payload channels to log after I reach 5400ish RPM all data just flatline. I have a screen shot, but I can't get it to attach.
