3.1.1.1 Load From File
Load From File allows the user to load a file that contains all the “set-up” and “map” data the
ECU requires to run a particular engine. This file has been saved during a previous tuning
session when the programming PC was connected to the ECU. When the ECU is “Offline”,
the Load Map function can be used to load the information from an E6GMX map file
(denoted by the .6XM file extension) into the front-end software to view its contents. If the
ECU is “Online” using the Load Map function will cause the ECU to be loaded with the
information stored in the file and all information previously stored in the ECU will be lost.
NOTE:
When using the load function be aware that when the ECU is online all “set-
up” and “map” data currently stored in the ECU will be overwritten.
To choose the desired map simply select the desired file from the dialog and press enter. This
is illustrated below,
The selected filename will be displayed in the horizontal black bar below the text “Opening
File”:
Press
Enter
When the ECU is “Online” the central Status Bar will turn red and indicate the load status of
the map.
3.1.1.2 Save To File
The ECU programming software allows the user to save all the information in the ECU to a
file on the programming PC. This allows the user to save a map and continue tuning and
then, if required, revert to a previous map.
