How to Read & Write Microcontrollers with XHORSE Multi-Prog?

Image
This is a tutorial on how to read and write Microcontrollers with XHORSE Multi-Prog Programmer . Read this article to learn the procedure. 1. Check Model Check the model of the microcontroller, and open Multi-Prog software. Click "Device" to enter the model number: ATMEGA32 Click "Details", and we can see the device info, important info, and adapter info. And now we learn that the microcontroller requires a Mult-PROG MCU adapter. 2. Connect to Multi Prog To facilitate connection and demonstration, we connected extension cables to the microcontroller and the adapter in advance. From the connection diagram, we can see that pin1 corresponds to the blue cable. If we find pin1 and the blue cable, there will be a color-coded label. Connect them, the rest cables, and the Multi Prog device. 3. Read & Write Data Let's start reading & writing. Multi-Prog supports reading EEPROM data, FLASH data, and CONFIG data. Click "Read". We can also modify the data ...

How to use Xhorse Multi-prog to read and write EEPROM

Image
This post will guide you on how to use Xhorse Multi-prog Programmer to read and write EEPROM. First, we check the model of the EEPROM. Then we open the Multi-prog software . Click "Device">>"Serial EEPROM&FLASH", and enter the model number. Open the "Details" and you can see the device information, important prompt, and adapter information. Now we learn that the chip requires a VH13 adapter. Remove the magnetic shield and check the adapter model. Confirm that it is a VH13 adapter and put the shield back. Place the chip aligned at the bottom, ensure that the pin one is upward, and then lock it. Click to read the data and here will show the reading progress. It's successful. We can modify the data just like this and click here to write it in. When we read the data again, we can see that the data has been modified successfully.

Solved: VVDI MB Tool "EIS is not synchronized with current key"

Image
Problem: Hello, I have a situation with a Mercedes Vito W639 2008. Only 1 key stopped starting, remote is still working. I checked with VVDI MB BGA Tool , see screens. Can I program a new key on bench or do more diagnostics? Very thanks. VVDI MB Tool gave the attention: "EIS is not synchronized with the current key!!! Maybe the key is not working key or EIS lost data!!! If the key can not finish synchronizing, please try the following step when asked you insert the key to the ignition: Insert key and start engine -> switch OFF -> switch ON" Solution Yes. It can support adding keys on bench in the situation. 1. Disassemble the EIS module from the vehicle. 2. Connect EIS, 12V power supply & MB Tool according to the connection diagram. 3. Do key-adding procedure in MB Tool software. www.xhorse.co.uk

Fixed: Xhorse MVCI PRO J2534 Cable "Command timeout!"

Image
Problem: The Xhorse MVCI PRO J2534 Cable is connected to the car. But when starting the Audi diagnostics, it will immediately shut down and start flashing red and green even though all the firmware has been updated. The option to test the cable in software doesn't even work. It prompted:" Command timeout! Close other J2534 software, plug the device, upgrade firmware, and retry!" What's the problem? Please help. Solution It's suggested to install ONE original software in the same system. Only the driver of the software used is installed. 1. Close or uninstall other software; 2. Plug the J2534 Diagnostic Cable to upgrade firmware, then try again. www.xhorse.co.uk

Xhorse Multi-Prog Read & Write VW EDC16/EDC17 on Bench

Today I'll show how to use Xhorse Multi-Prog Programmer to read & write VW Bosch EDC16/EDC17 on bench. Connect Bosch EDC16 to Xhorse Multi-Prog according to the wiring diagram. EXT EEPROM >> Read It took the 40s to read the EEPROM... Read success. EXT FLASH >> Read It took 2 minutes and 14s to read the external flash. Read success. INT FLASH >> Read It says "This feature is not yet supported!" Maybe the type of ECU doesn't have an internal flash. Click "Save" to save all reading files. Let's hit "Write" the same file and see how long it will take. Is checksum calculated for writing files? Note: If the checksum of the file is incorrect, it may cause the module to not work, and in severe cases, it may lead to module damage! Click "Verify": Write the data for calculating the checksum online. Click "Skip": Write raw data Click "Cancel": Exit the process. Here I'll click "Verify". Ch...
