Dyno report templates

Dyno2 measurement reports can be customized with use of HTML style template file.

Example dynamometer report
Example dyno report

The report templates are editable via dyno software in SETTINGS / Report editor. The software from the start contains 3 templates, each in two orientations: portrait and landscape. You can add your own templates and edit the ones that are available from start.

Dyno report editor

The report editor helps you with inserting project and run properties via Insert item button. It will also help to insert other elements such as graphs, page breaks and images.

File syntax is a mix of common HTML and CSS language with custom commands that will insert dyno specific information into the report. Information about supported subset of HTML and CSS is available here:

Supported HTML Subset

The example template file looks like this:

<table><tr>

<td>
<img src="/home/pi/Desktop/your-logo.png" width=300>
</td>

<td align=right>
<b>Your company name</b><br>
Company address<br>
Tel: +12 345 678 910<br>
tuning@yourwebsite.com<br>
www.yourwebsite.com
</td>

</tr></table>

<p>${project_info 0 vehicleId} ${project_info 0 brand} ${project_info 0 model} ${project_info 0 series} ${project_info 0 displacement}</p>
<p>${project_info 0 description}</p>

${main_graph 190,100 120}

${run_table}
<br>
<p align=center>Power correction: ${run_info 0 enginePowerCorrectionStandard}</p>

${page_break}

${user_graph 190,200 120}

HTML syntax can be learned here: https://www.w3schools.com/html/

Custom dyno information is inserted into the file with use of commands. An example command looks like this:

${main_graph 160,100 96}

${ – start of command
main_graph – command name
600,450 – first argument – in this case it is main graph size
96 – second argument – in this case it is main graph dpi
} – end of command

While writing your own template, the dyno application doesn’t need to be restarted. The template file is read every time you select Save / Print pdf action.
If syntax errors are present in your file, debug information can be found in /home/pi/.dyno2/debug.txt

Command description

${background path page}

Command sets full page background image. Page numbering starts from 0.

${background_image /home/pi/Desktop/page0_background.jpg 0}
${background_image /home/pi/Desktop/page1_background.jpg 1}

${img path size}

Command inserts image.
path – relative or absolute path to image file. If path contains white-space, it is required to place it in quotes.
size – inserted image dimensions in millimeters. The format is width,height. One of the dimensions can be replaced with *. It will be calculated automatically to keep aspect ratio.

${img ./my_logo.jpg 100,20}
${img "/home/pi/Desktop/my other logo.jpg" *,15}

${project_picture number size}

Command inserts the picture associated with the project.
number – run number. 0 is the first run.
size – inserted image dimensions in millimeters. The format is width,height. One of the dimensions can be replaced with *. It will be calculated automatically to keep aspect ratio.

${project_picture 0 *,20}
${project_picture 1 100,20}

${main_graph size dpi}

Dynamometer power and torque vs engine speed

${user_graph size dpi number}

Custom dyno graph

Commands main_graph and user_graph insert graphs from ANALYZE tab. The main graph is the upper one with power and torque information. User graph is the lower one with channels selected by user.

size – graph size in millimeters. The format is width,height. Dimensions can’t be replaced with * wildcard.
dpi – dots per inch of the graph. The graph elements like lines and text have constant dot size. Increasing dpi will make all graph elements appear smaller. 96dpi will make the printout look like the graph on the monitor. By setting 150dpi you will make the graph illegible on the print preview, but the printout will look good, because a printer usually has higher dpi resolution than a screen.
number – number of user graph. Optional. Starts from 0.

${main_graph 160,100 96}
${user_graph 160,75 150}
${user_graph 160,75 150 1}
${user_graph 160,75 150 2}

${color_map size dpi}

Command inserts the color map from ANALYZE tab.

size – graph size in millimeters. The format is width,height. Dimensions can’t be replaced with * wildcard.
dpi – dots per inch of the graph. The graph elements like lines and text have constant dot size. Increasing dpi will make all graph elements appear smaller. 96dpi will make the printout look like the graph on the monitor. By setting 150dpi you will make the graph illegible on the print preview, but the printout will look good, because a printer usually has higher dpi resolution than a screen.

${color_map 160,100 96}

${page_break}

Inserts page break. Everything inserted after this command will be on the next printout page.

${run_info number id unitOverride}

Inserts information about run.

Correction standard: ${run_info 0 enginePowerCorrectionStandard}
<br>
<ul>
  <li>${run_info 0 enginePowerCorrectionValue}</li>
  <li>${run_info 1 enginePowerCorrectionValue}</li>
  <li>${run_info 2 enginePowerCorrectionValue}</li>
<ul>

number – run number. 0 is the first run.
