    From the controller out, the cables are about a meter long. I was performing a few bench test on an LC1 and LM2 about a month ago and had no problems performing a free air calibration from V2. Do you have a link to the issues you've heard of?

    Eric, I just did a LM-2 heater and free air calibration utilizing TAQuickness's (Andy) WB Serial Cables.

    Worked flawlessly. I changed out an O2 sensor..(routine maintenance).

    Just to reiterate, I did the free air calibration using the Flashscan V2..

    Good here!

    thanks for the info guys , so i guess it is 8 ft including the sensor like my LM-2 that i have permenently installed the cables but it is a hassel when i want to go to another vheicle , so i want to get 2 LC-1s and leave them permenent , i will have to make them longer because i have a truck and i want to pass them in a specific place , i dont like making holes so i use what is there , to TA dont remember where i picked that up but i do remember there was an issue maybe someone else has some info , just want to be sure before i calibrate with the V2, new to EFI live but wow what a product my LM-2 is also hooked up in serial , if any one of you does get back have another Question , want to black box log so i guess i have to install the 8 software , will the 7.5 and eight work together , this is probably a stupid question but keep in mind the i didnt even use a computer up untill two years ago , dont worry i am not 95 years old i am 42 but just never needed one before but now i am using it alot for my work and loving EFI live but it is taking time and thank god for patience that i do have and if i understood right v8 will eventually be complete, thanks

    Hi Eric,

    Download/install the latest version of V7 and V8 software from here.


    V8 includes firmware which you will have to flash into your V2, see attached doc.

    V8 provides the user interface for configuring black box logging/flashing.
    V7 provides the user interface for viewing logs and editing calibrations.

    V2 can handle upto 2 serial widebands daisy-chained together.

    Yeah, I don't like cutting holes either... a good place to poke the serial cable thru is the shift lever grommet under the center console.

    Cheers
    Joe

    thanks joecar for the info , just have a few questions , when installing the latest version of V7 i guess efilive will override the old version and in V8 what is the procedure to flash the V2 with V8 firmware and if i understand correctly V7 will remain the same for logging and editing and flashing , i will still be able to log and flash using my laptop and V8 will log using the V2 (bbl) , will it also be able to flash in a tune to my pcm without the use of my labtop and if so will it hold more than one tune so i can flip from one to another and why doesnt one version do all this , thank you joecar

    joe forgot to mention , if there will be one version that will be complete with V7 and V8 functions shouldnt i wait because i imagine if V7 is not doing it they want to work out the bugs in V8 before it becomes a complete package or is this not the reason , thank you
