ecuEdit v2.4 - ECU Tuning & Logging solution

[wetwilly]

Freon, what you describe is what I have already done. Extract archive to a new clean directory, run EcuEdit then click the SSM button - error as reported above.

I have not replaced, copied or modified any file from epifan's new release above. As it is out of the box and I get the error when clicking on the SMM button.

I must be doing something wrong compared to you lot. Perhaps you guys are replacing/modifying an xml config file somewhere?

I am getting the same error after installing EcuEdit for the first time as described above. Any other suggestions?

It sounds to me like you are missing the "ecuEdit.ini" file.
This file should reside in the same directory as "ecuEdit.exe", and tells ecuEdit where to find the xml files.

You can,

1. copy the "ecuEdit.ini" file from a previous installation (earlier versions came with this in the zip file).
or
2. move the "logdefs.xml" + any other ecuEdit xml files into the same directory as ecuEdit.
or
3. create a new "ecuEdit.ini" file (just use notepad) with the following data in it,
[Main]
XMLDir=XMLDefs\
XMLWriteParam=1

Cheers,

Very nice.

Efan, you are on the right path. This is a world class piece of software.

You can do everything from one software.

I still cannot ge tthe dyno work, but the last thing is realtime tuning or map access.

I love the Dash. I prefer this over the other dash.

Very Nice.

Send your log file (It must have WOT run) to me, I'm check it.

Thanks, I'll give that a try. I don't remember seeing any INI file and I did not have a previous installation. One other question - shouldn't I have to set the comm port that my cable is attached to somewhere for the program? Is this also done in the INI file or is it done in the XML?

00wrex, Adding the INI file worked. Thanks for your help.

epifan, I love the dashboard display. The large numbers look very nice on my 7 inch in-dash monitor. Thanks for your great program. Any thought to adding graphical analog type gauges?

In the dyno layout you have to move the right timline bar over so that you pick what part of the log you want it to graph out. However, the graph lines are all wavy and totally not correct based on the csv file that westminist posted. I don't log speed on my logs so I can't tell you if it's the file or something else.

[west_minist]

You are correct. Its very wavy and the results do not add up. All files produce this.

I use EcuEdit in all tuning, as you can see from my post. The Dyno will complete the usage, making me dump DD.

This would be oe software I would pay for, if I still continue to tune with my new hectic job.

You its strange how I prefer this display. Very strange.

[wetwilly]

One problem with the dashboard though. The program doesn't remember my dashboard setup, so that every time I start the program, I have to go through the process of selecting the parameters to display. Hopefully this will be fixed in the final version. Also it would be nice if it connected to the ecu automatically upon selecting the ecu monitor function from the main menu.

[west_minist]

It does display for me. Not sure why not for you.

Extract everything (not just one file) out of the zip and put it in a directory. That will fix all of everyone's problems. How hard is it to do this people?
