Newbie here

Guys, I was recently tuned for 91 Octane and my mods in my sig. I want to save the ROM from my tune, so I can have it in case anything ever happens. Just as I have my Mellon hex files for 93 Octane. Today when I went to read my ecu and saved the file, it saved it as a bin. file. I save the ROM file in a folder, and noticed the extension is bin. Can this bin file be uploaded/WRITE to my ECU the same way my other HEX files upload/ write to ECU? Any advice?
Thanks guys.

Get the romid and download the appropriate xml definitions for it from this section. Most likely a tephra v7 rom.

I think it is a Tephra since i the set up where if I knock between certain counts SES light will flash slowly or quickly, two step mod and some other things according to the tuner. Sound familiar for Tephra?
