Question ECM reading with a PC ??? can it work ??

Hello !!!

Have anybody connect a PC to a Mercruiser 1993 502EFI ???

I have found the free software: DataMaster

DataMaster-M3 Beta v3.4.21
NOTE: Only works with MODE1 Datastream which must be enabled in the PCM firmware.
Supports MEFI-3 Marine and GM Performance Products Ramjet 350 / 502 EFI systems.

http://www.ttspowersystems.com/DM_Beta_Software.htm

And i have a datawire from PC to ECM !!! from:

www.mastach.com

i have connect the PC to A=ground and G=Datastream
but nothing at this time !!! We have bad weather at this time so i test it more in the next days !!!

Have anybody a idea ???

Mit freundlichem Gruß

Michael F

I'm surprised someone hasn't done it. I use vag-com for my VW so I can get in there a muck with every computer system onboard from my laptop.

I use the laptop program from Rinda!! what a great program!!! the best feature is the record feature!!! You can run the engine normally , then view the data.. You can also Email the data you have recorded... I like it much better than the scan tool. you can watch 50+ different paramiters at once, instead of just one at a time like on the scan tool. well worth the money!!!

to MikeScarab: We work with the Rinda software, but it
is only for analysing the engines parameters and you
can not recalibrate or reprograming the ECU.
It's not what you need whan you like to change some
ECU parameters.

Na Prost und viel Vergnügen am Oktoberfest!

Gruss Daniel
