What is Included:

  1. Software Overview and Requirements
  2. Latest Software Links & Installation Instructions
NOTE1: URL Links are in BLUE and pictures are links to larger images.

NOTE2: Click here for Getting Started Guides, Tips, & Cheat Sheets

1. Software Overview and Requirements:

This guide serves Fxx, Ixx, and Gxx-series vehicles. For E-series, different software and cable are used. Complete Software & Interface Overview.

Supported Chassis Code Overview

Prerequisites:
  • Windows 7+ Computer.
  • E-Sys = Main Coding Software
  • PSdZData Lite(~2.5 GB) = ECU Data Files. Works for VO & FDL Coding.
  • Bimmer Utility = Provides License (ie Activation), FDL-Coding mapping, Cheat Codes (Section 7), & other optimization.
  • Connection Interface = ENET Cable (OBDII to RJ45 Ethernet) or ICOM. For computers without an ethernet port, you can use USB-to-ethernet adapters


2. Software Installation:

NOTE: Links never change. The latest versions are usually found below.
  • Add a comment to the thread if links down or you need newer versions
E-Sys - Install Instructions - v.15.pdf (Guide courtesy of member Shawnsheridan)

Bimmer Utility - Mapping 4.35.42 - Only and recommended solution
  • Auto-updated and supports the latest mapping for the most accurate coding experience
    • Purchase directly from the developer's website.
  • E-sys 3.39.1 - Used with Bimmer Utility or alone for Programming and VO coding.

Latest PSdZData_Lite (~2.5 GB) WORKS FOR ALL FDL CODING & VO CODING
  • Use this guide to determine your I-Step.
  • You only need one lite version for coding that is equal to or greater than your I-Step.
    • NOTE: If you get a "Not Found [C012]" error when "Read Coding Data," it is time to update.
  • Do NOT merge. DELETE old PSdZData folder & REPLACE w/ new PSdZData folder.


By Resource:
  1. NCD / CAFD: Read *.ncd files offline and easily search for a function, viewing current settings as well as other options
  2. NCD Compare: Load *.ncd files using Folder icons or drag & drop and then the far right button initiates compare. Popup showing Left vs right values which you can highlight and copy if you choose. It also highlights *.ncd trees differences in red & you can scroll up and down.
  3. Decrypt CAFD: not just for CFDs. It also works for other Psdzdata files (eg FAFP).
  4. FA / FP: viewer; tool includes mapping (eg 430 Inter Exter mirror anti dazzle). You can search loaded FA or entire FAFP (ie available options). FP viewer allows you to view options by Vehicle Profile (FP) without loading FA (Vehicle Order).
  5. FA Compare: like #2, but comparing fas.
  6. FA-CAFD: You load individual ECUs *.ncd and can see how FA additions will affect (ie "what-if).
  7. SVT-CAFD: You load the entire saved SVT file and see how FA changes will affect (ie "what-if).

Hi All (but probably Shawn as he seems to be the one that replies to all the other comments).
Could I also get the links to the esys/psdzdata/other software required for the g80/g82/g87 platforms.
Thanks a lot!
Guy

Hi folks:

I'm still trying to learn coding. I coded VLD through Bimmercode on my Laser light and it's been fantastic! But I want to change KAFAS settings to optimize its performance. Can I get links for the software needed for G20 and G01?

Thanks!

Hello, First post here. I have been reading (Trolling) just about everything I can for about a month and still can't get my problem solved. I had a left headlight swamped with water and have replaced the entire headlight housing, module, ballast, and replaced the connector to the car My problem is I went down the road of not knowing what I was doing, and it seems I may have programed the FRM to do something strange. My right front headlight works fine but my left headlight will not light low or high beam. The left turn in (corner) light will not illuminate either. And to top it off the break lights are constantly on and I replaced the break light switch but that did nothing. My assumption is that I messed those up when I messed the FRM up.

Like I said , I have ISTA+ running and also have a working e-sys and launcher working but need to know what PSZD FULL file for my car as I can't seem to locate that either.

Any help would be appreciated as I have been at this for over a month and I am getting no where on my own.

My car is listed below:
2012 BMW 528i XDrive manufactured 7/11 (I believe)
F10 Series
I have adaptive headlights with Xenon low / high beam
Halogen corner lights
LED turn signals and marker light

P.S. I did order a used footwell module coming this Monday or Tuesday with the same sw, hw, production date, and part number. Just in case I can program my vin on it and get back my car.

Thank you for reading. Please help if you can as I don't know what to do next.

Thank You.

PSdZData Full needed only for Programming (flashing).

If you have any sort of coding issue, just VO Code FRM and any separate light modules to reset them.
