Values, configuration settings and other stored information which can be read from the ECU, edited and then rewritten back. Read settings can also be stored as a standard HTML page for reference. These pages can then later be re loaded and re written back to the ECU. Please note that some values may be read only due to the fact that they are supplied from the ECU’s ROM or are internally calculated.
This gives 3 choices, General settings and information, Read ECU data to Map file and Program ECU with data from map file.
The read ECU data to Map file and Program ECU with data from map file functions allow you to save data from any ECU as a MAP file and re use it at any time to re program any new or used ECU. The General settings and Information allows values, configuration settings and other stored information, to be read from the ECU, edited and then rewritten back. Read settings can also be stored as a standard HTML page for reference. These pages can then later be re loaded and re written back to the ECU. Please note that some values may be read only due to the fact that they are supplied from the ECU’s ROM or are internally calculated.
GENERAL SETTINGS AND INFORMATION
- Part Number: This is the part number for the ECU.
- Supplier Number: This is a number which defines the supplier using a standard look up list of supplier ECU manufacturer numbers.
- Hardware Number: This is the hardware version which denotes the processor and circuit board type.
- Software Number: This denotes the coding inside the processor for the hardware.
- Manufacturing Week: Gives the week in which the unit was built.
- Manufacturing Year: Gives the year in which the unit was built.
- Mileage: Gives the total distance covered by vehicle.
- VIN Number: Gives the car VIN number.
- Coding Index: This is the coding identification for the programming maps.
- Diagnostic Index: This is a number that indicates the diagnostic capabilities support level.
- Can Bus Index: Index identifies the bus communication support level, the vehicle communication buses. The instrument pack's CAN Index accepts a number between 0 and 99. This is a code to denote the engine management system's CAN capability and is normally 7 for Range Rover.
- CAN (controller area network): CAN provides low-speed, fault-tolerant transmission of 125 Kbps up to 40 meters, which can function over one wire if a short occurs. Transmission without fault tolerance is provided up to 1 Mbps and 40 meters.
- Module Index: There are variant versions of IPAC modules which can be more easily identified by their module index.
- Days To Next Service: Days remaining until next due service.
- Next Inspection Type: Type of service to be carried out next, oil service or inspection service.
- RED MIL Warning Lamp: Shows If RED Mil warning lamp is fitted or not.
- GM Code: This is a unique code that identifies the configuration of the vehicle. It is stored in several ECUs within the vehicle and allows the manufacturer to uniquely identify each and every possible option for the vehicle. It is used in conjunction with the SA Code and the VN Code. The function to decode these into their meanings and to create a code from options is in the "Other Systems" section under the main menu of the New Generation Range Rover.
- SN Code: This is a unique code that identifies the configuration of the vehicle. It is stored in several ECUs within the vehicle and allows the manufacturer to uniquely identify each and every possible option for the vehicle. It is used in conjunction with the GM Code and the VN Code. The function to decode these into their meanings and to create a code from options is in the "Other Systems" section under the main menu of the New Generation Range Rover.
- VN Code: This is a unique code that identifies the configuration of the vehicle. It is stored in several ECUs within the vehicle and allows the manufacturer to uniquely identify each and every possible option for the vehicle. It is used in conjunction with the SA Code and the GM Code. The function to decode these into their meanings and to create a code from options is in the "Other Systems" section under the main menu of the New Generation Range Rover.
READ ECU DATA TO MAP FILE
This function reads the entire memory of the ECUand it stores on the server in a file that starts with IPC3.
PROGRAM ECU WITH DATA FROM MAP FILE
Clicking on this link causes the vehicle explorer to communicate with the Vehicle Server to obtain a list of all of the map files on the vehicle server which can be programmed into the ECU. It will then automatically open the following page:
- PROGRAM SELECTED MAP TO ECU
You must program a valid ECU map. To program a map, select, from the drop down menu, the map that you want to use to program into the ECU and then click on the button itself around the list box. The Vehicle Server will start programming the ECU and give you a status report of progress as it does so. The system automatically verifies that they are maps for the Instrument pack type 3 ECU and suitable for the ECU's coding index.
