Hello Mark,
Back to 'Normal' for now, vision anyway. Sorry to hijack your thread on Zippers, but it was important to let the members know why the Release of Firmware has not officially happened.
Zippers is completing a total re-write of the installation, and more importantly, the Owners and Tuning Manuals. Most of the questions that arise from ongoing board discussions shuld be covered and be inclusive in this new printing. In the interim, it is always advisable to download new software versions as they come out. Will this mean a change for everyone? No, it just will incorporate new features available as options to address new things, like being able to set an engine heat alarm at a temperature of your choosing, for one. The decel program for another.
The new
firmware will allow the software to work on only the new features, while the regular features and capabilities go unchanged. The Firmware, when released from Zippers, will be done at the same time with the new manual. Doesn't make a lot of sense to have all these new features active, since the pre release is completing fiels testing. So, in Unison, when the book is finished and the bugs are out, they will be realeased together.
I know there are a lot of anxious people out there, but without knowing how to make changes, why even try. By releasing the
Software early, it does give everyone an opprotunity to see and play with the new platform, but some features are not active until incorporated with the firmware.
For all of us out there using the TMAX, the changes are totally transparent. Nothing changes for existing software, or the new software, it can be run as normal. When the new
FIRMWARE is activated, then the
new features will go active with the new software, such as the Decel Program, the Temp Program, and the Digital Tech etc...
So in the meantime, be happy and wait for the manufacturer to do their official release to be sure.
Have a nice day.
Rhino,
Nice to hear from you, how you doing?
Is your vision coming along?
Mark
