just a quicky

in the default setting you cant change the kmh/mph or the temp in F/C


is this for future operation or my dumb @SS not being able to do it

and how do you get it into ECM operation and not demo mode


but other than that it looks really good GOOD JOB! cant wait to see the error page working

...Amazing...I've been telling people that it has a name, but that everybody calls it "Craig Moates Software"...

Now even *Craig* calls it "Craig Moates Software"...

Seriously, I love the program!!!

Thanks for your time & effort, Craig!!!

Just going over it quickly, in '730 mode I'm still not seeing any MAP values onscreen or stored.. Am I missing something?

No, you're not missing anything. Bottom line is I suck. Haven't updated the accuracy and functionality. No TBI, no 160-baud, etc etc. This guy from Amsterdam, Kor Mooibroek, offered to help me get things moving again, and I've taken him up on it.

I swear to *** , I will fix it! Fact is, this version release hasn't even been tested on a car. Anyone get it to work?

Nope, couldn't get it to work - tested the old ver to make sure I had a good connection, it worked fine.

The new version wouldn't pull up the 63 byte word, then sort of gets locked on the first screen (telling you about the max 232 chip). It was still responding to the keyboard, but wouldn't let me exit or go any further - I had to restart the computer.

Also, the default settings were not being saved, kept defaulting to "test mode", instead of where I had set it to "diagnostic mode".

Feel free to e-mail me - gellett@earthlink.net - if you have any questions or if I need to try something different.

Yep, having some issues. Consider this a partially-failed beta test unless someone else has different experience.

Craig - I sent you an email (couldn't get in here earlier), but for the others -

I just tried v81; it seems to work OK in diagnostic mode, '86 L98 Corvette 1227165 running, pages 1 - 5 all return readings (not sure if accurate or not!). But it is working, showing running values.

The Dump to File doesn't work correctly. Running or off, it won't dump. The default of being in non-ecm mode (or whatever) should probably be reversed, so that default is On for dump. Anyway, by resetting the setup defaults, I can get to a window where it seems it should dump, but nothing happens. It just hangs. vE6B004 works OK for this dumping.

I'm running Win98 w/98lite on a Compaq 486DX50 laptop. All runs taken from the Windows desktop shortcut to the Win directory. AKM interface cable.
