Public pre-release software versions:
- Software: V7.5.7.290
- Software: V8.2.2.283
- FlashScan/AutoCal firmware: V2.07.88
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 (in July 28 release):
In the July 28 pre-release, error $0525 occurs when trying to license or flash a *.ctz or *.coz tune file using the V8 pass-thru flashing software.
The error is due to the July 28 release being built with the wrong EFILive_VM.dll file. That dll is faulty and does not recognize any files created by previous software versions.
Workaround:
Please download and install the Aug 07 update
Issue 3 (in July 28 release):
In the July 28 pre-release, BBX scan items that specify both an ECM and a TCM display no PIDs.
Workaround:
Please download and install the Aug 07 update
Issue 4 (in July 28 release):
In the July 28 pre-release, the V8 PID selections have been incorrectly limited to 35 channels for most CAN controllers.
Workaround:
Please download and install the Aug 07 update
Issue 5 (in July 31 release):
In the July 31 pre-release, an Access Violation may occur when deleting a "Scan Controller" item from the [F5: BBX] tab page.
Workaround:
Please download and install the Aug 07 update
Issue 6 (in July 31 release):
In the July 31 pre-release, the FlashScan/AutoCal firmware would stall when starting black box logging if more than 7 dynamic frames were required to transmit PID data from the ECM to FlashScan/AutoCal.
(Note: 7 dynamic frames is about 49 channels).
Workaround:
Please download and install the Aug 07 update
Issue 7 (in Aug 03 release):
Some diesel injector PIDs (defined for Black Box Logging) were not available in the V7 Scan Tool display.
Workaround:

Issue 8 (in Aug 03 release):
