V8.3.43 Public Beta Release

Be careful when installing the beta software on your production systems. It is possible that the beta test software may fail and your production system may not be recoverable. If you conduct a tuning business, please take the necessary precautions to protect your business. EFILive recommends beta testers use a separate FlashScan V3/V2 device (when installing the latest beta firmware) and only install the EFILive beta software on a separate PC, laptop or virtual machine.

The current public release is available here.

Known Limitations:

Limitation #1: 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.

Limitation #2: When logging DMA PIDs (i.e., PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), that are specific to a custom operating system such as DSP2 or DSP5 PIDs when running a stock operating system, the values returned by those DMA PIDs will not contain valid information and should be ignored.

Known Issues:

The "What's New" document lists "Added editing support for multiple CMF (CM2450B) 2022 operating systems." under calibration updates for version V8.3.40.
That is incorrect. Editing/Tuning support for 2022/2023 has not been released.

The EFILive Team

Hello.
At first, congratulation for all your hard working team.
I didn't undestand one thing.

"Added editing support for multiple CMF (CM2450B) 2022 operating systems.
Updated check sum calculations for most 2022/2023 CMF (CM2450B) operating systems." And:
"That is expected and the message may be ignored. We have only added the option to open CMF 2022 stock files so that EFILive can flash stock files. EFILive cannot be used to update the check sums of modified files. Modified files cannot be flashed."

Which information is correct? They are opposite.

"Added editing support for multiple CMF (CM2450B) 2022 operating systems.
This one should not have been in the list of new features. We were working on editing support for 2023/2023 CMF operating systems, but that is now on hold until/unless there is a way to flash modified files into 2022/2023 ECMs.

Updated check sum calculations for most 2022/2023 CMF (CM2450B) operating systems." And:
You should now be able to open most CMF 2022/2023 operating system files and validate/update the check sums without getting the messages described in the next point below.

"That is expected and the message may be ignored. We have only added the option to open CMF 2022 stock files so that EFILive can flash stock files. EFILive cannot be used to update the check sums of modified files. Modified files cannot be flashed."
We may have missed some 2022/2023 operating systems, so if you get one that still displays this message, please send it to EFILive so we can add check sum support for it.
