VCI7 Cable Reading and Flashing instructions

Tuning with Protomotive?  Here’s the VCI7 Cable Reading and Flashing instructions to help you get started.  These instructions are for the 4.1.0.8 Flash client using Durametric VCI7 cables with the LED top left of the connector above the P in Porsche.

How to install the software

  1. Download ProtoFlashclient41081_VCI7.zip Installer
  2. Please Unzip it to access the installer program.
  3. Click on Setup and allow it a few seconds to install.
  4. If your PC/laptop doesn’t have Microsoft .net 4.6, install this. dotNet 4.6 installer  Windows 7 and up should already have it.  Xp does not, but may have if you run other softwares requiring the .net setup.

How to read your car

  1. After the software has installed, plug in the cable so it recognizes and installs the drivers before running the software.
  2. After the drivers have been recognized, plug the cable into the car, key on (not running) click on read.
  3. Locate where you’d like to save the file and remember that location (desktop is great)
  4. Once done reading, send/email the VIN.trx file that is saved to your location.  VIN will be your actual vin # with the extension .trx.  For example, WP0AB29921S687676.trx
  5. Protomotive will tune your file and return it as a *.ttx file.

How to Flash your car

  1. Open the flash client, while connected to the car with the key on, and click on write
  2. Locate the *.ttx file you saved and  the flash client will write your file.

Next step is Logging

Datalogging explained Next over are some more fueling values- Fuel Trim Mean Value Bank 1 and 2 Actual and Lambda Value Bank 1 and 2. The Fuel Trim Mean Value Bank 1 and 2 are what you'd normally see called "Short Term Fuel Trims" in an OBD2 scan tool. A value of 1.00 is telling you that the ECU is not having to trim the fuel from the base mapped values in the tune to maintain the target Lambda. Even though we're not logging the target Lambda, it is another variable you can look at. The short terms versus long terms we explained earlier are kind of like short term and long term memory- the short terms are an immediate value and taking care of the trims to maintain the actual Lambda according to the target.🎯 And if these are consistently high, the long terms will absorb those values every few seconds to try to keep the short terms closer to 1.0. So the short terms move fast and the long terms move slow. 🐇🐢 997.1 Turbo Datalogging Instructions https://www.protomotive.com/wp422/product/997_1tt-datalogging-instructions Unlock the hidden potential of your car by understanding its power secrets!

The actual throttle plate angle is the next column over and is pretty much exactly what it's telling you it is. On some cars 100% is 100%; while on others 100% or max throttle angle may be limited to 85%. What we're typically looking for here is throttle closure since we're dealing with E-throttle cars and the ECU is controlling them based on many, many conditions- and not simply where your foot is on the throttle pedal. So if you're at wide open throttle and you suddenly see the actual throttle plate angle closing down then maybe reopening a few RPMs later, that's usually caused by the ECU sensing something isn't right and putting the engine into a protective mode. 🔐 997.1 Turbo Datalogging Instructions https://www.protomotive.com/wp422/product/997_1tt-datalogging-instructions Unlock the hidden potential of your car by understanding its power secrets!
