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
Image


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).

I'm experiencing a strange issue, I've coded before on my 2013 F30 and assumed the process hasn't changed, downloaded the latest data_lite and esys from the 1st post then launcher premium BFU edition from the developers blog but I'm getting stuck on activating the FA.

My I-step;
Current: F020-19-07-539
Last: F020-19-07-539
Shipment: F020-19-07-505

@ShawnSheridan any ideas on this, I've seen your posts about not saving the FA, simply read then activate but tried it and same result. On the latest ver of Windows 10 (2004), I do also get the error when launching E-SYS from the launcher namely - Loading E-SYS Launcher PSdZ API Module Failed - Error with the DLL, Can't find dependant libraries

Tried running the launcher as admin and I have reinstalled it removing all the traces I could - namely programdata, files etc.

Not for sure. Make sure you Download and Install Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio:(Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013), 32-Bit or 64-Bit accordingly.

No, that is not what it states. It shows E-Sys 3.27.1 usess 5.0.1.02 PSdZ (as seen in E-Sys => Help => About). It does not state anything about PSdZData. They are not the same thing.

Ok. Forgive my misunderstanding but it is easily misinterpreted even after rereading the post.

Are the latest versions of E-Sys and PSdZData lite available somewhere? Cheers

Thank you.

I have followed the instructions and everything is seemingly fine, BUT, when I select "Launch Now" in E-Sys Launcher, it tries to start E-Sys, and I see the logo appear shortly twice and after that nothing else.

Any solution to this?
What is Windows Build? If it is 2004, you need to roll it back.

Got slightly closer. Now I see the logo for a long time and nothing else happens.

I did the following:

5) Copy the contents of the JRE you installed into E-Sys JRE (from C:\Program Files\Java\jre6 or C:\Program Files\Java\jre7 to C:\EC-Apps\ESG\E-Sys\jre)

Both of these folder are nearly empty: C:\Program Files\Java\jre7 C:\EC-Apps\ESG\E-Sys\jre (the latter has an empty /lib folder)

I have tried to uninstall all Java programs and install the one you are linking to in your blog. But still not solved?

Hello Shawn,
I used E-Sys 3.27 and 3.30 wih launcher Pro v2.8.1 + token generator with several PSdZData (v63.3, from ISTA 4.13.14, 4.23.12) but I have a lot of issues during coding like: SVT can not be read (c064), NCD read from ECU failed (c069) cdDeploy FinishedWithError, CAFD not found (c012)...etc.
Can you send me links to the latest E-sys, Launcher and PSdZdata lite and full that work for you.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi. First time user of E-Sys (v3.27.1) and found that my 2015 650iGC has current I-Step F010-16-11-503. Outside of a couple HU updates i did earlier, SVT actuals and targets match. Don't understand how to select latest I-Step that will work from F10 data in v.4.24.21_PSdZData_Full. Got this far without Loader Pro, waiting on reply to receive DL. Thank you.

I don't really understand what you ask. You don't understand what Connection Target I-Step to use?

Hello Shawn,

I curently use E-Sys 3.30.1 with launcher Pro v2.8.1.155 + PSdZData v63.3 (5.04.02). I'm really not sure that it's the last version ...

Is it possible to share with me links to the latest E-sys, Launcher and PSdZdata lite and full that work for you.

Thank you in advance for your help. That's really great.

Hi Shawn,

Thanks so much for answering all these requests for our fellow forum members! You now have another one :D

Please may I request the latest versions, along with any prerequisites/version compatibility between E-Sys and the Psdzdata packs if you know?

I currently have 3.27.1 working with TMs Launcher Pro 2.8.2, and v63.4_PSdZData_Lite but cannot get the connect via VIN to populate at all on my 02/2017 M240i. I downloaded and tried 3.33.0 with v4.21.32_PSdZData_Lite but that still wouldn't show connection via VIN when connecting after trying all the suggestions for that issue from the forums. Is this a compatibility issue? My car was in at the dealership in March for a headlight control module replacement so I imagine they may have updated everything to new versions. Could that cause older versions of Psdzdata to not connect in E-Sys or populate the VIN leaving it greyed out?

Many thanks

You will not be able to connect via VIN unless PSdZData is properly installed, and the Car and Laptop have a connection. For this:

1) The Target Connection Window should not be blank (It should show multiple target connections for different chassis')
2) ENET Cable must be good and making good contact in OBDII Port
3) Car must have proper voltage (Make sure motor is running if car is not on a Charger).
4) Laptop must not have Firewall or any Antivirus software running.
5) PC Lan Adapter should get a fallback IP address of 169.254.xxx.xxx (Make sure it is using DHCP and does not have a Static IP address assigned to it)
