[QUOTE=Sensible_;14732232]Hi,

Once again i'll share what i'm using

This is an ISID Virtual Machine with both ISTA-D and ISTA-P installed. ISTA-P has been updated to 50.4 and I-LEVELS corrected.

What is unique about this VM is that it has an ICOM EMULATOR built into it. Of course you need an ICOM EMU dongle to use it, unless you want to replace the files with the free version Thats up to you...

Anyway, to use this - there a 3 network adapters installed. Only eth0 is connected at start up. If you wish to use the emulator you must then turn on the second net adapter eth1 and wait until device configuring messages clear. Then disconnect eth0. Once complete you can start the emulator process as normal.

Also, I made printing easy with quick links to dedicated folder. Hope its useful.

Oh, and download latest winrar as i use RAR5 compression. Sadly 41GB download

Thank you Sensible for your effort, Im downloading this version of yours, I have Icom it will allow me to select the interface is there a menu to choose, this version will do flashing on a single ECU?.

thanks again

Running two systems:
First is a C2d notebook with a T7200 , 4GB RAM, win8 x64, and also Samsung Evo SSD 256GB, and a 7200rpm hdd. Notebook has a max read speed of 220MB/s ... i.e. early SATA2 controller.

Second is a C2 Quad Q9550 with 8GB RAM, win8 x64, on a 7200rpm platter.

The RAM is the big difference, but when I moved the VM to the SSD on the notebook, the SSD used as virtual memory was able enough to keep the system moving.

Will move VM to a new PC: i5 with 8GB RAM I am building as I write this, for it's future use.

Thanks again Sensible.

eth0 is the ISID net adapter with correct MAC address. Make sure this is connected when you power on VM.

eth0 is ICOM emulator - you'd don't need this. Make sure it's disconnected.

eth1 is a bridged connection and should be used when connecting ICOM.

Make sure the adapters are configured correctly in the 'Virtual Network Editor' in workstation.

Once ISID has booted and all icons are loaded - plug in icom to computer port and connect it to car. Wait 2 mins. Then, turn off eth0 for ISID, and turn on eth2 for a bridged connection so ISTA can find ICOM. Wait 2 mins. Start ISTA and if your ICOM is registered correctly it should be available for selection in connection manager.

Hi sensible, I manage to download your build, I did connect the ICOM for diagnostics, for programming Im having a hard time configuring the vm connections, Im using ICON only, could please tell me the right configuración on VM for the 3 vnet, thank you.

thank you for all....

Thank you guys for helping me, Im stiil not connecting to isid or istap, Im using ICOM only, if someone manage to conect this vm to a ICOM clone please tell me the steps in configuring vmnet 1 2 and 3 or jusat the vmnet that is needed for ICOM.



Best regards

Boot VM with just #1 connected.

Once booted, connect ICOM to car . Wait a minute or so then right click on #1 (eth0) then settings then change from custom to 'bridged'.

Wait some more then icom should be visible in connection manager.

Thank you sensible, and I do like your build, can you help me with this situation on a R60 I need the activation codes for BO

BO 008E0001
BO 001B0001
BO 00240001
BO 00460001
BO 006F0001


Is in this situation when I use IBAC, the problema is the combox unit was replaced now I need to program RAD2 and all related most units, but it ask to download codes, anyways I think I can put the answer codes on a usb stick and ISTA P will read it from there I think .

I have no idea why ISTA p sees the new combox and the whole most modules as retrofit, can you share a light on this matter.

Best regards

Thanks for sharing, everything works perfectly for me.

One question, have you tried modifying ISTA P so that it allows the voltage to drop below 13 volts. I think it will be easier to mess with the software instead of getting real expensive PSUs.

What do you think, is it possible?

Not a good idea unless you want bricked ECU's.

Well, if you hook the car up to a charger I don't think it's going to be a problem. I have updated the software of individual modules without any charger or PSU, no problems. You just have to have a good battery.

It's just a stupid safety measure of BMW and a pain in the ass for us, that's all

[pbackup1980]

Can I have the guide on installation of ISTA/D & ISTA/P?

Thanks

Hello,
Merry Christmas To All.
I Own A E90 320 06/2006 Which Work Perfectly With The Older Software And A K Can Cable. I Have Downloaded And Running In Vm Both "e89 Ista-p-d" And Gini's Emulator.i Made Lot Of Reading But In The End I Am Confused. Can Somebody Guide Me How To Make This Two Work? (settings-sequence Of Moves) I Read Many Post From Tinkerman He Has The Same Car And He Made Them Working. Thanks

[Ilyas]

Does anyone have a link ISTA-D 2.38 Rheingold? Seems like everyone keeps saying on forums that it's easy to install and it works fine with DCAN cables, but couldn't find any viable links to download.

 Generic ICOM Update Instructions:

1) Setup network adapter to DHCP mode for IP v4
2) Connect ICOM and power on
3) Check network adapter has IP starting like 169.254....
4) Try to ping 169.254.92.38 or use ipconfig in command prompt to find the IP
5) Using web browser go http://169.254.92.38:60080, L/P: root/NZY1150263
6) Select channels menu and make accure lock
7) Go to firmware update and update with ICOM-BootImage-01-11-01.bin, then with ICOM-ApplicationImage-01-15-01.bin, don't reboot between parts.
8) Reboot ICOM, check firmware versions for boot 1.11.01 and application for 1.15.01

Assuming its a clone

You need to register it. You can do it by editing some XML files:

They are in total 4 files you need to create and 1 you need to edit;

Create (XXXXXXX is the serial number) if not created. If already created - edit them with your ICOM serial.

1) p:\apps\wsm\apps\manager\data\DeviceInventory-ICOMXXXXXXX.xml
2) p:\apps\wsm\apps\manager\data\UnitRegistration-ICOMXXXXXXX.xml
3) p:\apps\wsm\apps\agent\data\DeviceInventory-ICOMXXXXXXX.xml
4) p:\apps\wsm\apps\agent\data\UnitRegistration-ICOMXXXXXXX.xml

Edit (just add your icom based on the other one)

1) p:\apps\wsm\apps\manager\data\PXEBootDevices.xml

Or maybe try ITOOLSRADAR attached - change txt to rar.

Is the ICOM serial number on the sticker on the side or do I need to find it some other way?

I'm using macbook pro with intel P8600. It is supposed to have VT, but doesn't work neither in Windows 7 (through bootcamp) nor MacOS X 10.9. Is there a way to make this VM running?

Turn the damn thing off! in VM settings of course.

Well sounds so easy... and it helped =) Thanks a lot!

Sensible,
It seems your private messages box is full?

[alexxx123]

Sensible
Weren't you going to update the software to 51 version?

Hello,
Can Somebody Tell Me For This Virtual Machine From Sensible With Built In Emulator, At Which Com Port Do I Have To Set The K+dcan Cable?
Thank You

Com9 in my setup.

[fredy3330]

Thank You Tinkerman. Is It The Same Com Port For The Gini's Snapshots?
I Tried Today With My Netbook But It Was Very Slow. Next Time I Will Try With The Laptop That Runs Vm With No Problem.
