When you open up V8 S&T, does it indicate the firmware version in your V2, and does your V2 LCD light up...?

Yes, try the rest of the setup procedure, if any step does not work then STOP and post here:
. . .
Note: if you have not yet configured V2 BBx config then continue:
Insert an SD card.
Configure BBx for your PCM or ECM/TCM:
- start V8 Scan & Tune (S&T),
- goto F6: Devices,
- set File System to SD Card,
- save to file Settings.dat,
- click Program,
- click Close,
- goto F5: BBX,
- click Format Config File System (accessed via downarrow next to Program button),
- goto Scan page (see Note below),
- in the blue pane delete pidlists for ECM's other than yours,
- in the blue pane you can add new pidlists for your ECM,
- each pidlist in the blue pane can have a number of pids as shown in the green pane (to which you can add pids from the yellow pane),
- at the bottom of the green pane is a bargraph showing pid usage, do not let this turn red (too many pids selected),
- goto Tune page,
- delete any ECM's other than yours,
- if not already present, add entries for your ECM type(s),
- goto DTC page,
- checkmark the DTC descriptions you want to see,
- save to file Options.txt,
- click Program All (accessed via downarrow next to Program button), wait for it to finish,
- click Close,
- goto F8:Tools,
- in the upper box, browse to your .tun files, and click Convert Now,
- click Close,
- exit V8 S&T.
Note: on the Scan page, the right-hand pane is yellow, the upper-left pane is blue, and the lower-left pane may be green or blue (depending on V8 build version).
2.07.95 is what the firmware says. yes it lights up and works fine. i can still flash controllers and everything else.
Sorry it's been a few days had to go out of town.
Ok I got the analog input on the v2 working.
I will try to finish your instructions on the BBx this weekend.
But the serial is still not working. And if I recall that's why I've always had my wide and on the analog channels
Because I don't think my serial input has ever worked since it was new:)
But thank you for the help!
Serial checklist: are you using a null modem adapter, did you setup serial wideband in V2 setup, are you plugged into OBD2 port.
Bump for an old thread. Just looking for some help with hooking a LC-2 to my V2. I currently use a LM-1 with the serial cable, but I have a friend with a LC-2. If i use this adapter http://www.sfcable.com/30D1-C1-S.html do I still need to cross wires? If so, which wires? Also, do I have to change any settings in the BBX or V2? Thx
Hi DrkPhx,
No, the null modem adapter already crosses the Rx/Tx wires, so you do not need to modify anything... simply join/connect the LC-2 serial cable to the FSV2 serial cable using the null modem adapter.
You have to configure FSV2 as follows:
- serial com port: wideband
- wideband type: Innovate
more info, see post #3: Setting-up-a-FSV2-from-scratch
You can also configure FSV2 for wideband serial comms by going down the menu tree on the LCD.
Awesome! As usual.. thanks Joecar.
