1. Software Overview and Requirements:

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 Shawn,
I think I already know the answer to this, but maybe you can suggest something.

Having previously done a lot of FDL coding on my F30, I now have a new F40 M135iX. The I-Level is S18A-21-07-555, and I have the latest PSdZData file version 4.33.21. I'm using E-Sys 3.27.1 and TM's LauncherPRO 2.82.

I can connect to the target project S18A_21_11_540_V_004_000_001 and everything seems to be working fine, except that FDL coding is impossible with every text field being trimmed.

Any suggestions, please? Obviously TM is now a dead end, and I haven't managed to have a sensible conversation with E-SysX.

hello, i've recently acquired a f30 with the top hifi sound system but the amplifier was fried. bought a donor off ebay and was wondering if these softwares would manage to program the module to my car. i know the amplifiers working somewhat as i get system tones on headunit, radio channels show whats playing, pushing button on dash mutes/unmutes, etc. but have no volume up or down(no music from any speakers) and no door chimes. amplifiers identical to my old one but appears it came from either a 5 or 7 series.

Thank you in advance, Brandon

For F30, you can use links in first post for Launcher Pro 2.8.2. For G01, there really is not a good options available currently.

Thanks a lot

Why do you need both lite and full? You should just download lite if only coding or full if coding and programming.

Hi,

this week my dealer updateted my car to S15A-21-11-550 (old: s15a-18-07-547).
So I had to VO code K235 again. I had some errors because of missing cafd files.
i think I need newer psdzdata. I only need VO coding, so I think psdzdata lite is enough.

Esys is 3.30. Do I need a newer version, too?

Thanks

Sorry, I cannot help with ISTA. New version of ISTA requires a PC HWID specific license file to run. PM sent.
