need to kickstart tuner pro

OK. i have had TP-RT for about a year. honestly did not strive to get it working since i had a functional TC and winALDL. now for numerous reasons i am needing to UPGRADE.

step one is to put my .bin file in TP and i did so. step two i believe is to drop the definition file into TP to allow me to read my bin and make changes to it.

i see defintion files on TP site but i cannot determine how to load on a 3.5 floppy at my office so that i can drop onto laptop at home? hhhmmmmm. same with .ads file on site. if i look in TP i see there is alredady a def file for $6E? i need the $42.

it was said in stickies there is a friendy user manaul so to speak for TP. i see ref to TP but no step by step process for startup.

patiently awaiting...

Should be able to just download them to the floppy for transport.
When you put the floppy into the laptop, copy the files into the TP directory folders under the main TP directory where it was installed.
Should be "bin definitions" folder for the XDF's and
"datastreams" folder for ADS's.
1.) Copy them there, then...
2.) Open TP then go to the XDF menu and do the "Select XDF", browse to get wherethe file is.
Once you select the XDF,
3.) Go to the "Tools" menus, "ALDL/Logging" then "Setup" and click "browse" on there to find the ADS file.
Then...
4.) Go to the "XDF" menu item and select "edit header info".
5.) Select the "ALDL association" tab.
Browse for the ADS file and click open.
6.) Then apply the change with OK or apply and close.
Then...
7.) Save the XDF file.
That will now associate the two files together and the datatracing function will work as well (If items are defined to use it)
HTH.
