VemsTune and 1.1.6x release

[gunni]

did you review all the windows to be the same in most aspects?

[dnb]

send me the cfg file and I'll have a look.  I had these sort of issues too for a while.

[Tony C]

i have noticed the temp and intake temp settings are wrong,
and some tables are 12x12 and some are 14x16,
would it be best to go 14x16?
and a lot of conflics appear when you click the validate config button.

Cheers dave, cfg file on its way to you now.

[dnb]

The spark table should always be 12x12 - you can't change this.  Only the VE table is 16x14.

I have found some problems with uploading patched firmwares with my USB to serial converters.  I don't know why yet, but it could be they don't like sub zero temperatures!

The conflicts are usually just warnings.  It shouldn't be too hard to sort out.

[Tony C]

Oh right,
well the cfg file has been sent, also sent the old msq if you wanted to cross ref,

[dnb]

Here's my tweaked firmware.  It has the Rover sensors built in to it (no patching required - in case this crashes your computer too...)

http://www.aqyz05.dsl.pipex.com/firmware_1.1.64_dnb.zip

Just unzip and copy into the vemsprojects directory over the top of the existing firmware_1.1.64 directory.

[Tony C]

then upload the firmware to ecu again yeah?
or do i wait till the cfg files has been checked/tweeked?

[dnb]

Upload now.  You should have the new cfg too now..

[Tony C]

oops
for some reason the ecu didnt like that upgrade,
i cannot now connect to the ecu,
is there a way to reset it? and start again???

[dnb]

Did you select PS2 or non-PS2?  (It should really be non-PS2 since that's what's on mine)

A power cycle should allow VEMStune to detect the ECU again after a bad flash. 

Failing that, you might need to short the rx and tx serial lines together during ECU power-up to force it into bootloader mode.

[Tony C]

yup,
and tried the power up and also shorting the rx and tx
still nowt
says bad communication check power, leads etc
all seem ok,
has it died?

[Tony C]

right its detected but keeps flashing ecu bootloaded detected, what now?

[Tony C]

nope now gone back to not being detected on com port1

[Tony C]

right if i try to upload the firmware you sent Dave it goes beserk and wont conect
just uploaded the old 1.1.64 firmware (saved it you see incase of probs)
and its re loaded the old firmware and is conected on the pc,

[Tony C]

when you try to upload your firmware Dave it says,

then it lists this load off errors on seperate lines,
