99.9

What it really means is that the lazy 8 symbol is not available. It means that over the interval measured no gasoline was used.
It means that miles/gals = miles/0 -> oo. Or, something like that.

 

It means less than 0.01 gallons/mile gasoline being consumed. That usually means the battery with ICE off, but not always, and certainly not by definition.

 

ya i used to think that 99.9 was a sure sign of EV mode, zero gas suckage, etc... but with CANVIEW, i've seen several readings that equated to like 180 mpg... (.3 gal/hour @ 60 mph) and so on. so it means that its 99.9 mph or higher...

 

I've been busy trying to catch up with work and various requests. I suppose I never bothered with mpg as it seemed redundant with the Prius showing that anyway. It never occurred to me that people would just keep CAN-view displayed and not bother with the Prius consumption displays. Instantaneous MPG (or Ltr/100km as some of use are stuck with) would be easy to add, so Ill do that at least. Integrated mpg over various time periods is a lot more difficult as it means adding every reading to get an accurate answer, when CAN-view has to spend a good part of its time doing housekeeping chores/updating the video etc.

Its the same problem I'm having playing with an integrated Amp-Hours display, I may end up having to change the way I process CAN messages.

But I will put it on the wish list....

 

I really hate to add this but the ScanGage has a high of 9999.9 mpg. Both mean the same thing 99.9 or 9999.9 same thing. Near 0. What do you want egg in your Beer? I would guess that this is a subedited and calculated value based on not dividing by 0. Computers have certain difficulties dividing by zero. I would like to see MPG on CAN View, until such time as there are more important values that need to be shown.

 

if you can just convert the current gals/hour to mpg reading that would be cool. after all 300 mpg would be much more impressive to show off than the old 99.9 mpg
