Currently known issues and possible workarounds for the Jan 2015 release of the EFILive V7.5.7.275, V8.2.2.269 software and the V2.07.76 FlashScan and AutoCal firmware.
Note: Issues 2 thru 9 have been fixed. The fixed version is available here: https://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?25137-Update-Feb-2051
Issue 1:
If you are Black Box Logging PIDs from an ECM and TCM simultaneously and you have selected a PID from the transmission controller (TCM) that has an identically named PID in the engine controller (ECM), then when the log file is loaded back into the V8 software for viewing, that TCM PID will be displayed as if it originated from the ECM. The PID's data will have correctly been logged from the TCM, only its name will appear to indicate that it was logged from the ECM.
Workaround:
None. It is a restriction of the *.efi (V7.5 log file format). That restriction will be removed and the TCM PIDs will display their true origin once the V8 scan tool software is available.
Issue 2:
All A50 *.calz files are corrupt which means A50 tune files cannot be opened/edited using the V7.5 software.
Workaround:
Download the attached A50.zip file and unzip the three *.calz files into the folder: \Program Files (x86)\EFILive\V7.5\Calibrations\A50, overwrite the existing files. Will be fixed in the next update. Issue 3:
In the V8 [F5: BBX]->[F6: Quick Setup] window, the name of the currently loaded quick setup file is not displayed above the list of quick setup files.
Workaround:
None. Will be fixed in the next update.
Issue 4:
For LML tune files, changing the VIN using the V7.5 software does not change the VIN displayed by the V8 software.
Workaround:
Change the VIN using the V8 software: [F3: Tune]->[F4: Properties]->[Controller Information] page, then click on the [...] button to the right of the VIN. Will be fixed in the next update.
Issue 5:
The timing calculator is not available on some Cummins fuel tables.
Workaround:
None. Will be fixed in the next update. Issue 6:
Updating FlashScan/AutoCal configuration files using the [Check Firmware] button on the main V8 window, then disconnecting and reconnecting FlashScan/AutoCal, some config files are reverting back to their old versions.
Workaround:
Perform the [Check Firmware]->[Update Files], then perform the following: [F5: BBX]->[F2: Scan]->[Read], then [Program Selections Only (faster)]. That will correctly flush the buffers. It will be fixed in the next update. Will be fixed in the next update. Issue 7:
Black Box Logging does not log data for GM controllers.
Workaround:
None. Updated firmware will be posted ASAP. Issue 8:
Wide band O2 serial interface data logging does not work.
Workaround:
None. Updated firmware will be posted ASAP. Issue 9:
Some E92 table axis are defined incorrectly
Workaround:
None.
