Adaptronic Firmware Upgrade Software (FlashIt)
Note that this software will NOT work (properly) with the e420b ECU. ECU model
number is on the bottom of the case. This program is for the e420c ECU.
Note: Firmware upgrades may require the settings to be reset, and can
only be performed when the engine is not running. Reprogramming firmware
should not be done lightly. This is why it is a separate program, rather
than being integrated with WARI.
Instructions: Download executable and save it to the target directory.
Run the executable.
To upgrade the firmware of an Adaptronic ECU, you will need to run the
software first, then select the COM port of the ECU. The software will
then display "No comms with ECU. Connect and reset ECU.". The
ECU should then be powered up (or powered down then up again) while
FlashIt is still running. The software should then display "ECU
connected" and a boot/hardware version string.
Next the firmware should be loaded into FlashIt. The latest version can
be downloaded below. It will be in the form of an
encrypted "adf" file. The "Load" button on the FlashIt
window should be clicked, and the firmware file should be loaded. Once the
file has been loaded, the ECU can be programmed by clicking the
"Program" button. After this completes, the programming should
be verified by clicking the "Verify" button. If there were no
errors, the programming operation was successful.
Clicking the "Run" button will cause the ECU to exit
programming mode, and revert to normal operation. Upon clicking this
button, the software will revert to the "No comms" message,
because the ECU is no longer able to be programmed (until it is reset).
To resume normal operation, close the FlashIt window and run WARI.
