Known Issues:
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 and fully integrated with the V8 tuning tool software.

Issue #2:

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.

Issue #3:

Adding a key to the [Remote] section of a tune file is only active for the following controllers: LS1B, E38, E40, E54, E60 and E67.

Workaround:

None.
Support for additional controllers will be added in a future update.

Issue #4:

Table B7017 does not display correctly for E78 OS 12654014. Can also cause a failure when opening an E78 tune file, with error "Bad bin file" or "Invalid floating point operation".

Workaround:

Save the attached file 12651404.calz into the folder (overwrite the existing file): \Program Files (x86)\EFILive\V7.5\Calibrations\E78.
You will need administrator privileges to perform that operation.

Issue #5:

The EFILive_CmdLine.exe application fails to gang program attached devices.

Workaround:

Unzip the attached file EFILive_CmdLine.zip into the folder (overwrite the existing file): \Program Files (x86)\EFILive\V8
You will need administrator privileges to perform that operation.
Note: The updated EFILive_CmdLine.exe supplied in the zip file is compatible with the current version (V8.2.16) of the EFILive V8 software only.

Issue #6:

The "Allow calibration values to exceed recommended limits." option was not being applied to individual property calibrations, only to table style calibrations.

Workaround:

None.
Will be fixed in the next beta release.
