TunerStein download page

This page includes download links and instructions for the Tunerstein programs and associated libraries.

The page is divided into four sections:

• Palm'n'Stein
• TunerStein Logger
• TunerStein Player
• TunerStein libraries (required for the Logger and Player)

Each section consists of a download link, and installation instructions for the component.

Palm'n'Stein

To install, use the Palm Desktop to install the following files from the CD-ROM downloaded zip file: PNStein.prc and Reg.pdb

In addition, 2g owners should install the DTC library found in the file: Dtc.pdb. This requires Palm OS 3.5 or later, but NOT 5.0 or later. It also is meant for REAL Palm brand PDA's. Half ass POS clones like the Visor won't work.

To run the logger:

• 1) Choose Palm'n'Stein from the menu
• 2) Press "page up", then choose the appropriate interface. DO NOT select test mode! "Chart Frames" will put a "box" around the graphs during logging & play back. Press "f1".
• 3) Choose the items you wish to log. Log ONLY those items you really need to see. The more items you log, the less resolution in the log files. Press "f1 ".
• 4) At this point, make sure you have taken the guided tour!
• 5) Connect the Palm to the logger cable/interface, and then plug the adapter into the interface under the dash.
• 6) Start the car.
• 7) Press "F1". In a few seconds, logging will begin. If the Palm is not connected properly, you will get an error message. Resolve the problem and press "F1" again. During logging, you may press pause. No items will be written to the log file while you are "paused", and charting will stop. To resume logging, press "F1" again. Press "Stop" when you are done logging. You can then save or discard the file.
• 8) To play back, use the menu drop down and choose "Play back". Select a log file and press play. Choose the items to chart, use the buttons at the bottom to play the file. If you touch a point on the chart, data value for that point will be displayed on the right.
• 9) You may delete (but not rename) log files.
• 10) To transfer the file to a desktop/laptop system, you must have the Tunerstein Player component installed on the p/c.
  • Run the Player Run Palm'n'Stein Connect the Palm to the P/C using the SERIAL sync cable. A USB Sync WILL NOT work!
  • On the Palm, press F4 Select the log file to transfer On the P/C, click the green Palm'n'Stein button and follow the instructions.

• 2) Copy the files from the distribution CDROM or download them into this directory
• 3) Install the Tunerstein library files as documented elsewhere on this page
• 4) Locate the directory SNJ2Home that was created in step #3.
• 5) Copy SNJ2TNTCLIB.DLL into the directory that CONTAINS SNJ2Home. Do NOT copy it into the SNJ2Home directory itself!
• 6) Take the guided tour, and have fun!

TunerStein libraries

• 1) Run SNJRT30.EXE (found on the CDROM or downloaded) to install and register the support DLL's. In Windows 2000 and later, the user must be defined as a "power user" for this process to work properly.
  • It will put some DLL files into the system directory and the register them.
  • You must be logged on as adminstrator if you are running NT.
  • DLL's are put under the windows/system32 directory by default.
  • For Windows 95, you MUST install them into the /windows or /windows/system not system32 directory. Under some circumstances you will get the error "Can't open results file" at the end of program #1.
  • Ignore this error.
• 2) You can delete SNJRT30.EXE after step 1 is complete
