Bin Writing Problems

[v6bucket]

I'm having troubles writing bins to my SST27SF512 eeproms. Originally I thought it was the cheap burner that I had, but I've recently purchased a GQ-4X USB Programmer from http://www.mcumall.com/comersus/store/c ... oduct=4282 .
I burnt a bin several months ago with the laptop to an eeprom with the cheap unit that I have which works in a car, I can connect to the ecu using the flash tool v1.27 then connect TP5 with no problems, I can also read the chip using the flash tool. If I burn a chip with the cheap unit, the flash tool says that "no device found". Thinking that the burner was u/s, I purchased the unit above. I now have the same problem with the new unit. I have tried using the different burn speeds but no luck connecting. I have tried using the desk top & laptop, but neither will connect.
This is the bin that I'm trying to burn, which is a $12P tune.

This was read from the chip that I burnt using a "speed of 0" on the programmer, which wont connect.

Can someone check this out & see what is going on, please.
At the moment, I'm using the nvram in the car, which makes it hard to tune another car.
I'm using TP5 v.5.00.7774.00 on the desktop & TP5 v5.00.7686.00 on the laptop(only because I haven't updated it yet). I have tried the newer versions of the flash tool, but v1.27 seems to work with my ancient (9 year old)Sony laptop.

The first file is just the data section and thesecond one only has the data section of the cal ($8000-9AFF) on the and not the operating system.
I've been caught with this as well, it's to do with the OSE plugin only reading/writing the data section on the NVRAM from TP5.
To get the whole bin read the nvram with the flashtool and use this to program a chip.
Attached files should work, has your data and the operating system.

Thanks yoda69, I'll try these today. When you say "To get the whole bin read the nvram with the flashtool and use this to program a chip." you mean "Get Bin" not "Get Cal" is that correct?

Yep use get bin. This only works for 12P, factory code has a bug that screws the very last byte of the bin.

[v6bucket]

For future reference, how do I add the "operating system" to the bin if I ever do this again?

[yoda69]

Not sure about others, but I just get a standard OSE12 calibration and then copy and paste the $0000 to 1AFF from my mod'd cal into it using a Hex Editor, in your case I just used the cal file you had and pasted that.

Thanks yoda69 & VL400.

Copy and paste in a hex editor is all I do too. 12P has text labels to show each segment which can make it easier to identify the start and end points.

well you learn something new everyday

i knew of the hex copying never noticed the label at the end though
