5 | Q | How do I load a previously saved layout or one pre-made for a device? |
A | To load a previously saved layout, open the 'rs-ajp' folder in your favourite Android File Explorer (for example Astro) and click on the previously saved layout. You will be prompted whether you wish to load the layout and replace your existing layout. Select Continue to do so and load RS-AJP with the new layout. To load a pre-made layout, copy the layout to the 'rs-ajp' folder on your device using Android File Transfer (free download from android.com) and then follow the previous instructions. |
Release History:
(v1.10) Added Rev-Limit Dial Warning. RPM>6000=AMBER, RPM>6500=RED. |
(v1.09) Added automatic reconnection logic in case the ecu is powered off while the app is running |
(v1.08) Just a bit of UI polishing. |
(v1.07) Well, it was said that the Cerbera, from 0-100mph, will out drag a Tornado Jet. A Tornado Jet has a Head Up Display, so I thought it fitting that a Cerbera should have one too |

(v1.06) Now with new widgets for: MPH, KPH, LateralG, Acceleration, Bearing, Altitude, Accuracy, Number of Satellties, Gps Location and Time And Data Logging, Frost Status Indicator on the Air Temp Dials and an option to reset to a STD or GPS layout. |
Connection Details:
For the MBE ECU used in all AJP8 and AJP6 cars, TVR used two types of connection terminal.
• A female 9-Pin D-Sub RS-232 port on the ECU motherboard.
• Or an external female three way cable plug connector.
Earlier cars had the 9-pin D-Sub connection, and on later cars access to the ECU was made available via the three way cable plug.
To get the diagnostic software to connect to the ECU in your car you need to determine which of these two types of connection you have.
If you have the earlier 9-pin D-Sub connection then all you need is a:
• USB Host enabled Android device
• USB OTG Cable
• USB to Serial Cable
If you have the later three way connection you will ALSO need:
• An extra cable that has a female 9-pin D-Sub RS-232 connection on one end and a male three way cable plug connector.
Connection procedure:
1) Connect your cables together
2) Connect cable to your ECU (ignition off)
3) Connect cable to your Android device
When you connect the cable to your Android device you will get a popup asking you to run the app.
Cable Information:
Make your own 3pin USB
The three pin connector has GND, Tx and Rx.
Remembering that the middle of the 3 pin connector is Rx.
3 Pin | RS232 |
---|---|
Rx | Pin 2 |
GND | Pin 5 |
Tx | Pin 3 |
(If you get Rx and Tx the wrong way around, it's fine, just swap them)
