Known Limitations:


Limitation #1: When logging DMA PIDs (i.e., PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), if the ignition is switched off for an extended period while data logging but data logging is not terminated, then when the ignition is switched on again the data log automatically continues. However, the DMA PIDs may no longer return valid data.
Workaround: EFILive recommends stopping the data log and restarting the data log when switching off the ignition for extended periods.

Limitation #2: When logging DMA PIDs (i.e., PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), that are specific to a custom operating system such as DSP2 or DSP5 PIDs when running a stock operating system, the values returned by those DMA PIDs will not contain valid information and should be ignored.
Workaround: Ignore unsupported DMA PIDs.



Known Issues:



Limitation #1: WThe V7.5 Scan Tool and the V2 firmware versions were not tagged as "compatible", which means the V7.5.50 Scan Tool cannot be used with the V2.08.212 firmware.
Workaround: Upgrade to V7.5.51 and firmware V2.08.213, here: https://forum.efilive.com/showthread.php?31640-Oct-28-2024-V8-4-65-Release-Candidate-3

That error occurs if/when your graphics card driver is not up to date or does not or cannot support OpenGL 3D Hardware acceleration.

EFILive recommends updating the drivers for your graphics card if possible. Otherwise you'll need to use a different PC/laptop with a more modern graphics card/chip set. Maybe even just updating your Windows operating system the latest available version may help.

You can look in the EFILive V8 "About Screen" to see what the OpenGL support is on your PC/laptop - that may help you figure out what graphics card vendor you need to download updated drivers from.

For example on my system here the graphics card vendor is NVIDIA, so I would need to go to NVIDIA's web site to get the latest drivers for my system. Yours will probably be different.
