Known issues with Oct 28, 2014 release of the EFILive software and firmware.
Currently known issues and possible workarounds for the Oct 5, 2014 release of the EFILive V7.5.7.269, V8.2.2.263 software and the V2.07.71 FlashScan and AutoCal firmware.
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:
DSP5 upgrade is not available for LBZ/LMM controllers with operating system 12620015.
Workaround:
None.
Issue 3:
[Close] button in the [F8: Tools] window displays incorrectly when the option View->Small Buttons is selected.
Workaround:
None. Will be fixed in the next update.
Issue 4:
FPE (Fleece Performance Engineering) external PIDs do not log correctly if more than one FPE set of external PIDs is selected.
Workaround:
Only select one set of FPE PIDs to be logged in a single black box logging session.
Do not attempt to transmit serial data to FlashScan that does not match the single selected FPE PID set.
Will be fixed in the next update.
Issue 5:
Cummins EDA (Enhanced Data Acquisition) black box logging returns incorrect results for PIDs if the display order of the PIDs is modified from the default EDA order in the [F5: BBX] window.
Workaround:
Do not modify the order of the selected EDA PIDs in the [F5: BBX] window.
Select ALL the PIDs in the EDA group and don't add or delete any PIDs.
Will be fixed in the next update.
Issue 6:
E86B full flashing will not complete. ECM can only be recovered using TIS.
Workaround:
None. DO NOT USE FULL FLASH OPTION.
Access violation at address error
For whatever reason I recently (like the past year) whenever opening up EFI Live V8 Scan and tune to and try and click on the icons on the left side of the page ie scan, tune,obd,bbx,devices,license,tools I get the error message " ACCESS VIOLATION AT ADDRESS 61009268 IN MODULE 'EFILIVE_SCANANDTUNE.EXE READ OF ADDRESS 61009268"
Once I get this error I can't do anything with the software such as purchase new tuning credits (because it must be done with V8 now) or tune the Cummins trucks because they require the full flash procedure used from the Scan and Tune app
I am running Windows 8, and V8.2.2.263, and V7.5.269. This is the OCT 28 release. This problem has occurred on multiple different versions of EFI live however so I think it is something in Windows 8.
I have had intermittent success going to C/USERS/EFIlive/V8 and deleting the instance of EFI Live Hapi that has showed up and that worked but not anymore. My only other option is to uninstall/reinstall the software to only have it work again for a short while.
I have submitted a case in EFI live help but have received no response as of yet.
Thanks in advance for any help!
