DashDAQ Series II

What is DashDAQ?

DashDAQ is a windshield-mounted cabin monitor that easily installs in seconds. DashDAQ’s unique feature set allows you do many different things all from one screen:

Customizable Dashboard Display

• Display sensor data from the Factory OBD2 ECU, showing more data than the factory dashboard
• Customize your dashboard with your own background, graphics, and gauge layouts
• Expand your dashboard by adding analog inputs, serial devices, USB Host devices, and 3rd party products
• Replace the factory instrument cluster for hot rods and motor swap projects using one or more DashDAQs'

Data Logger and Flight Recorder

• Show info on gauges in real-time
• Record to optional MMC/SD card, up to 4GB
• Calculate Horsepower, Torque, and Performance 
• calculate MPG and set configurable trip counters

 

Diagnostic Tool

• Find out why your check-engine light is on
• Read and Clear Diagnostic Trouble Codes
• View sensor data to figure out which parts may be defective 

GPS Navigation

• DashDAQ can connect to many different serial and USB GPS modules, ranging from 1Hz to 20 Hz.
• Optional Linux-based navigation software being developed with Elektrobit can guide you to your destination
• Run other Linux-based GPS software

 

What separates DashDAQ from all other gauges and digital dashboards is it's high resolution color display and customization capabilities. DashDAQ's 4" touch-screen offers 480x272 resolution and 24-bit colour. Here is an image at the resolution it will be viewed on-screen:

DashDAQ has six built-in themes that offer different colours and styling for the gauges. Those themes are: Classic, Sport, Neon, Tuner, Night, and Metal.

     

If you want to change the six original themes or create your own, DashDAQ has a unique gauge skin system that allows you to make your own dashboard. You can also create several different gauge pages in your theme, and switch between them easily. DashDAQ's skin software supports alpha blending so you can use graphics that contain transparency areas. You can design pages that include analog round gauges, digital text boxes, graphs, and more. Here are just a few samples of how the dashboard could be laid out.

     

     

Developers Information.

The DashDAQ Series II is a Linux Platform running an ARM9 processor. When you purchase a DashDAQ, it includes GUI software written by Drew Technologies that allows the user to create digital gauges, perform diagnostics, log data, and more. A DashDAQ purchase also includes technical support for operating the included GUI software.

DashDAQ can also be used as a hardware platform for developers that want to write their own software. Because of it's built in vehicle communications hardware, form factor, and temperature range, it is a unique platform for developers.
