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,
can someone help, I had many things coded in FEM_BODY, and now after the service action I get the message: CAFD_00000794_018_070_005 Fehler:
File for "cafd_00000794-018_070_005" not found! [C012]. I have E-Sys 3.27.1 Launcher Plus 2.8 and PSdZData Lite v 62.3.
All I know is that I have to use the button: "Detect CAF for SWE". But I don't know if I need to download a newer version of E-Sys and Psdzdata? And is LITE enough or do I need Full?

You do NOT need to inject CAFD ("Detect CAF for SWE"),

Update your PSdZData (Delete & Replace). PM sent.

Hi, I'm brand new to coding and I've done a little research and gathered my tools (E-Sys, psdzdata) and have a quick question. I am trying to code an LCI F10 (2016 535i)

Before I say anything else this is my software setup:
  • E-Sys Launcher PRO V2.8.2.162 BFU_XODE Edition
  • BFU_XODE.EST token file
  • E-Sys 3.27.1
    • UNCHECKED "Update VCM after TAL execution"
    • UNCHECKED "Update MSM after TAL execution"
  • psdzdata lite v4.30.12
I have setup the launcher, token, psdzdata, and pretty much everything and it all works well, no problem there. I have a question about the connections I can make to the car in E-Sys.

I know I have to select the F010 chassis, however there are more than one to choose from. (I know NOT to choose the "_DIRECT" options)

1038033


Which one do I choose for my car? I looked and people said "choose the one near the bottom" but I don't really know why to do that, or if it is the correct thing to do. If someone can tell me what the "TargetSelector" text means and how to read each option in the list that'd be helpful. Also, I just want to make sure there is no psdzdata version mismatch between my car, E-Sys, and what I need.

I replaced my EKPS module. Can I tried to update it with psdzdata 4.27.20 lite but that didn’t work. Do I need the full version. Updated version?
I have 2010 550iGT (F07)
Click to expand...
If you want to update (Flash) EKPS, you need PSdZData Full and for Flashing ECU's with >= v.4.17.20 PSdZData requires using newer E-Sys 3.30.0 or higher:

Car can

I have been coding with my car on, should that matter? And are these settings correct?
Click to expand...
Car can be coded with motor running, it ca NOT be flashed with motor running as Flash TAL puts car in Transport mode.

Settings are fine.

Hi, I am pretty new here and followed the procedure to obtain launcher 3.x as described in the linked pdf on the very first page of this thread using the PayPal method. However, there was no response yet on how to download/activate launcher 3.x. Does maybe someone has a pointer on how to proceed? Many thanks for your help.

Developer TokenMaster missing over 18 months now. You can't get 3.x.

Try PRO 2.8.2:

From TokenMaster's Blog:
UPDATE: 06/20/2020 - Uninstall the old version, download and reinstall the new, repackaged version and the updated BFU_XODE.EST
