I went thru the same thing recently , you have a 93, what ecm ID do you have,then you ,must find the right mask or calibration file first, the one you mentioned does not sound right,
then you need to find an .ads file that has the same numbers except it is a .ads file, now you able to get the autoprom to datalog.
Thanks. I went to the Moates site and grabbed the 1227730.ads file. There is stilla mismatch.
I'm obviously missing a step or several steps in the process to link the two sections of the software together and tie it all together.
This gets very frustrating in itself, not to mention the three years I've been trying to fire up a TPI swap unsuccessfully.
In Tunerpro I went to Tools> ALDL/ Data Logging> Setup. went to the top left had box where it says Definition File> Browse and added my acquired1227730.ads file and STILL get a mismatch.
The bin name I'm opening is titled: Superv4 scoop idle 04252008.bin
The XDF file opened is: 8D_saujp_V4_09032007.xdf
What am I clueless on here? I surely don't get it so far..

from the bin name, it sounds like someone uploaded just the bin to where you got it from.
like the XDF, the other ads files don't really work with V4.
go to Moates file manager and in Custom Modified Binaries, find S_AUJP_V4_1026.zip and download it.
it will have the correct XDF and ads files you need along with the V4 bin.
you may also want to get S_AUJP_V4 Inputs.zip
it has some other info for V4 that you may want to know about.
a post from JP86SS about Data Tracing with V4.
Going from memory here...
There has been discussion on which MAP value to use when the data tracing is set up.
There is a 10Kpa offset when used with the VE tables within the code itself.
The MAP value that is used as data is not the same one used for the table.
You could be viewing one cell off so when you make edits they are in the incorrect cell. This is just how the code works.
Concerning the "mismatch" message,
Go to the " edit header" for the XDF and set the association for the ADS file. (Ctrl +F2 will open it also)
TP has the XDF and ADS linked for the data tracing feature.
When looking at doing simultaneous logging and editing the XDF items are "mapped" to the ADS item for feedback values.
If the ADS changes this warning pops up to inform you the datatracing may not work correctly if the items defined are different.
If you re-state which files are being used the message goes away.
This is in the "ALDL Association tab, select the ADS you are using and save.
OK well by Jove, I think I've got it! No more mismatch warning comes up
I downloaded per your instructions for .xdf and . ads file from Moates custom binaries.
Hopefully a quick question. In the View > show lists area, The tables flags are not well organized in that they are not alphabetical. I was able to move things around, and I saved the bin and xdf when exiting. When reopening, the file list were all jumbled again. How do I get them to STAY alphabetical
When downloaded to my Prominator, does the process transfer both the bin and xdf file to the chip? Can't think of any other way it would allow it to work!
I also downloaded the 41026a bin from the zip file and noticed the lower and upper fuel tables do not match at 1600 rpm, and the upper table looks like someone sliced it with a knife at 35 kpa. Please edjumakate me as to what happened there!
