Known Issues:

Workaround: Please use the V8 software to display the E92 controller's serial number.

EFILive V8

Enhancements:

· Added Clear DTC option in [F4 OBD]->[F2: OBD].

Bug Fixes:

· Cummins HD DTC descriptions are no longer automatically selected for copying to FlashScan devices by default.

· The Cummins HD "Failure Mode Indicator (FMI) Descriptions" option was incorrectly disabled.

· Added additional validation checks when VIN licensing LB7/LLY controllers to help prevent VIN license failures.

· Fixed problem with PID validation for controllers with OS numbers with less than 8 digits.

· Fixed the "Force Checksum to be Correct" option for segments that have invalid checksums.

· Fixed problem with DTC status information not being stored consistently in *.pld log files.

· Fixed checksum failure when reading Cummins CM2350A HD controllers or when opening CM2350A tune files that had been read using the Nov 2017 V8 software.

Known Issues:

· When logging DMA PIDs (i.e. PIDs whose names end with "_M" or "_DMA"), if the ignition is switched off for an extended period while data logging but data logging is not terminated, then when the ignition is switched on again the data log automatically continues. However the DMA PIDs may no longer return valid data.

Workaround: EFILive recommends stopping the data log and restarting the data log when switching off the ignition for extended periods.

· When Black Box Logging PIDs from an ECM and TCM simultaneously and a PID is selected from the transmission controller (TCM) that has an identically named PID in the engine controller (ECM), (i.e. RPM) then when the log file is opened in the V8 software for viewing, the TCM PID will be displayed as if it originated from the ECM. The PID's data will have correctly been logged from the TCM, only its name will appear to indicate that it was logged from the ECM.

Workaround: None. It is a restriction of the *.efi (V7.5 log file format). That restriction will be removed and the TCM PIDs will display their true origin once the V8 scan tool software is available.

· Adding a key to the [Remote] section of a tune file is only active for the following controllers: LS1B, E38, E40, E54, E60 and E67.

Workaround: None. Support for additional controllers will be added in a future update.

· Added current and pending DTC display for Cummins HD.

· Added DTC and FMI description display for Cummins HD.

· Added DTC Clearing for Cummins HD.

Bug Fixes:

· Fixed PID validation problems for Cummins HD PIDs that use a single data channel.

Known Issues:

· When logging DMA PIDs (i.e. PIDs whose names end with “_M” or “_DMA”), if the ignition is switched off for an extended period while data logging but data logging is not terminated, then when the ignition is switched on again the data log automatically continues. However the DMA PIDs may no longer return valid data. EFILive recommends stopping the data log and restarting the data log when switching off the ignition for extended periods.
