diacom ?

OK, I'm borrowing a diacom...  it's pretty cool.

HOWEVER...  I'm a little confused as to how to get it to save more than
a single frame.  I hit the spacebar to do a capture.  It seems to come
out of "link" mode when it's done capturing...  or at least it did on
my way to work this morning.  Didn't do that last night.

Anyhow...  do I save at that point?


Side note:  my ECM plug at the battery pigtail was a little loose.  Pushed
it in nice and tight yesterday morning and haven't had a miss yet.  Of
course as soon as I send this message I'll be jinxing myself back into
problems :)

I'm not getting ANY spark knock recorded, though it is cold this am.  I am
sure that I'm getting some audible knock though.  At least that's what it
sounds like to me.  Anybody have a test for the knock sensor and/or ESC
module handy?  I'll look it up at home tonight otherwise.

It'll only link with my '165 ECM (TPI, MAF) in ALDL mode, not diagnostic.
Is this correct?

It doesn't show fan command even when the fan is on.  It also shows skip
shift...  shouldn't have that for this car.  I think I'm using Diacom 2.85.

Thanks for your input,
