VT $A5 V6 Definition Info

Post by yoda69 »

EDIT: XDF's can now be found here
https://pcmhacking.net/forums/view ... hp?f=7&t=5

There appears to be 10 Variants of the VT V6 $A5 (do not confuse it with $A5 for the VP, that is different again) that have been identified. I initially Used Tunerpro and a bin compare from $0000 to $1FFFF, the calibration data is from $2000 to $6000, if the calibrations are the same outside this area I have assumed it will be the same xdf required.
Since then Antus has provided a list lower in the thread which I have now added into the table below and updated.
It has been sugested to use VT V6 V1.0 $A5x, where x is the variant name.
I'm open to any suggestions and ideas people may have, either post a message and I'll update the table below (Some data from Dr Bob's memcal site, hope you don't mind Dr Bob) to suit, or PM me the info and I'll update it from that.

Re: VT $A5 V6 Definition Info

Post by antus »

Looks about right to me. I'd suggest letters as a suffix such at $A5D or similar, as its more inline with how the Americans and others do it. I agree that it'll be important with these definitions due to the number of variants to stick with naming conventions. I like what you have so far.

VL400, would it be possible to add some kind of a checksumming feature to the flashtool that can load a bin, checksum the expected program area and give a specific ID on it?

Looking forward to seeing what you've come up with, yoda69 :thumbup:

Re: VT $A5 V6 Definition Info

I like the way you guys think.

Holden used the Program Hardware ID word to identify there calibrations and not the Program ID byte. You can see this when you c the variations in the definition templates.

Both TunerPro and Tunercat use the Program ID byte to identify the calibrations. With TunerPro you can allocate a default definition template to a given Program ID which is only 8 bit. This does not help much for the Holden’s as the Program ID is the same for all variations and this will not set them apart. But the Program Hardware ID will. Tunercat uses the 8 bit ID Byte but it also has provisions to include one Program Hardware ID. To really get it to work correctly you need to be able to allocate a number of Hardware ID's to a given Definition Template just like I see in the LS1 code.....:)

Calibration identification to the variation of definition is important and personally I think this is the hold up with supporting definitions for the later models. I had a chat with both Mark and John about this so we might see what comes of it.

The other thing I spoke to Mark about was the checksum of the later Model Holden's and having the ability in Tunerpro to subtract a given region or 2 from the total calculated checksum. This is important as well, would like to run some info past somebody to confirm what I think on the later model Holden checksum.

Good info Yoda!!

Cheers

I asked about this on the Tunerpro forum a couple of years ago but there was no interest.
I don't think they believed me when I explained how these checksums worked!!

We might see a few updates in the near future with V5 TunerPro....Looks good...Pretty solid.

TunerCat is pretty cheap software if you ask me, you need to get the TDF editor as well. It will currently support Subtract region in the checksum. It also supports the Ostrich so I'm thinking that Antusprom will work with it as well?

Getting a bit off topic, but yeah antusprom code should talk to it but i'll need to re-work its internal memory addressing a bit. Its currently only supporting 0x8000->0xFFFF which wont cut it for 64k or 128k bins. Not too much work, quite doable.

Guys,
I'm getting a bit of info through, it appears there is already a variant listing out there for VT bins, the variants are a bit jumbeled from what I have listed, should I keep going with what I have or try and match up as best I can what is already out there?
ie. The VT one I have listed as Variant D appears to be Variant F, but not sure where this is coming from.
Ideally don't want one more complexity if there is already a Variant identification system being used, should at least try and keep it common.
Let me know and I'll update to suit.

Thanks

Yoda,

I think you should keep it in line with whats all ready out there. Far less drama that way.

Drop me a mail at mickclean@bigpond.com.au and we can sort this out and maybe put a original listing on the forum like you have all ready started.

Cheers
