Well the numbers are specific per vehicle or ECU. And i dont know if you can pull them off with the products we have, i know mitsubishi scan tool can do it but that's about it. Hopefully someone here knows more about it.

Are there any code reader programs that are compatible with the openport 2.0 and the evo x?

How far out is ECUFLASH from working with the X?

How far out are the loggers from working with the X?

as far as an email by Amanda:


Though we don't have an actual date, I can tell you that we expect to have the ecuflash software for the Evo X within the next 2-3 weeks. We frequently update our OpenEcu.org forum, and will list the software at the site once its available. We appreciate the communities excitement, and are working hard to ensure we have the software updates soon !

Kind regards,

Amanda

In the Ecuflash thread under evo 1-9 there's one for the X i belive. They are still working on it. But have been slacking cause of the summer and some delay with the decompiler.

I got my cable yesterday, you can use is as a J2534-1 pass thru as mentioned on
the open ecu site.

I tried out the Drew Technologies J2534-1 tool but after connecting I didn't' see any CAN messages in the app.

I also tried the PCMSCAN demo application which successfully connected and was able to detect the engine module and transmission module on my car.

It pulled the correct vin #, the demo version will only log rpm, I didn't start up the car
as I only wanted to see if it was working as J2534 pass thru device which it did.

The can pass thru software is available here: (it's not small screen friendly,
my mini laptop's 1024x600 didn't cut it, had to get a monitor hooked up to use it).
https://www.mitsubi****echinfo.com/e...ANPassThru.zip it didn't connect for me, reported comm error when trying to connect to the engine or transmission.

I do have a version of mitsulogger thats coming along to support logging MUT on non-can Mitsubishis, I also have been able to log CAN bus frames with the code I've been working with. But I've been out of the loop, plus I had a slight mishap with my 2.0 cable and have to replace it.

the CAN tools do actually work, but if I recall, all can messages are filtered by default with the openport j2534 DLL so its not surprising not to see any messages.

I do think that most of the passthrough features are functional, but I'm guessing some of the functionality may not be 100% complete, therefore the tools like the mitsubishi passthrough may or may not work at the moment.

BTW, Thank you for posting the CAN tool.. Its a ***HUGE*** help

If your having some issues with the J2534 DLL, there's a new DLL posted on openECU that has the proper functionality to get that software (appears to be a MUT tool application) working.. the IBM Laptops that the MUT-III is based on are 1024x768 resolution, hence the window size..

Cool I'll try out the new dll, I was going to put together a quick program that would just display any frames that came up to the pc, but I haven't done much, just opened the comm port, but as far as the init once the port is open would be next.

From the mitsu tech site it seems like we could get flashes related to TSB's and be able to flash the car if warranted, I only had a one day access pass a few weeks back and I didn't find the CAN pass thru software until a few days back

If I had looked into that area of the site I would have saved the flashes that were out for the GSR's, at least they would be useful for someone to look at.

Your not going to accomplish much by harassing them. There are two things to keep in mind, the reflash portion which will allow read/write of the ECU, which requires development time, and the definitions for the maps once their retrieved.

The hard part is essentially done, and that was getting the cable and its driver to comply with the J2534 specification.. the next steps will be supporting new vehicles.

Keep in mind that the 2.0 cable will be capable of reading and reflashing way more than just the cars already supported, it will be alot easier to add support and definitions now for many other cars.

ECUFlash software was released to support the Openport 2.0 cable. It works with all the early reflashing features for Early non-can mitsubishi (not the X) and appears to work with reading/writing CAN equipped Subarus and of course all the supported earlier Subarus.

At the moment there is no available logging tool, Tactrix has plans to add logging to ECUFlash and standalone logging with the cable directly. However its not "there" yet.

I have been working on getting logging with the MUT-III protocol working with the cable, whether or not MUT-III works with CAN equipped Mitsubishis, I don't know. But at the least the existing functionality will be there so people can purchase their cables and have a fully functional suite of tools.

I'm sure others are also working on the same, if not more cool stuff.
