Release Notes. (http://download.efilive.com/Documentation/June%202014%20EFILive%20Release%20Notes.pdf)

The FlashScan/AutoCal V2 firmware has been updated, the version number has been increased to V2.07.63, and the firmware date has been updated to July 02, 2014.

IMPORTANT: The *.ctz and *.coz tune file formats have been updated. All existing *.ctz and *.coz files will continue to operate with the V7.5 and V8 software and with the FlashScan and AutoCal firmware. All new *.ctz and *.coz tune files that are saved using the following software or firmware versions: V7.5.7.259, V8.2.2.252, V2.07.61 (or later versions) will no longer be compatible with older software or firmware versions.
That means if you are using this latest software version, then any tune files that you save may only be shared with other EFILive users who are using this latest (or a later) version of the software and/or firmware. For tuners that means making sure your customers' software matches the software and firmware version that you are using.


Fixed Issues:

[*=1]E86 calibration updates.
[*=1]*.coz files can now be added to BBX Quick Setup files.
[*=1]E69 BBL now logs data.
[*=1]Added cylinder knock PIDs for E55.
[*=1]Loading a BBX "Quick Setup" *.bbx file sometimes caused an Access Violation" error.

Added Features:

[*=1]A new option exists to allow tuners to hide the "Switch Tunes" menu item on AutoCal's "simple Menu" structure. [F6: Devices]->[F7: BBX]->"Black Box Options:"
[*=1]A new check has been added when flashing CMB files to prevent accidentally flashing CMB (5.9) files into CMC (6.7) trucks.

We posted the below in the June 10 software release thread.

The line was drawn in the sand to get the release finalised. Unfortunately not all OS's were mapped. Remaining OS support and additional tables will start to filter into production software around August.

Cheers

Not a big issue, but I did send an email through to support on a bug/incorrect label for B5112 for 12654173 cal.

efi has the vertical row from 0 when it should start at 1 and increment in say .050 eq ratios.

Quick question.... was setting up an autocal in V8 and while choosing the PID sets to program to the autocal, I got an error message for "Out of Memory" .... which was kind of surprising. Opened command prompt and to my surprise EFI was hogging 1.8Gigs of RAM??? What would cause that? It usually runs with under 100MB of ram. I closed it and restarted the program (V8) and its back down to 45MB but was just something weird that happened.

If you can reproduce the excessive memory usage, can you please document the steps required to reproduce it and log a technical support case here:

That error message usually means the CONFIG file system on AutoCal (or FlashScan) is full. Try selecting the quick setup option "Format CONFIG file system before copying BBX setup files to device.". That will delete all existing data from the CONFIG file system. If it still fails with $0194 then it may be that you have too much data selected in the quick setup file.
