Thanks. I think also the less data you are requesting will increases the sample rate. I just wanted to see if I get could get back to BAR from Boost Presure.

 

In case anyone is interested, there is a new version of the software. Will let you know how it goes after I install it and hook it up to the car. It is my understanding that this Beta version only suppots 9x7 and that in the next month or so it will support 9x6.

First release of Durametric 6.0

• Coverage for 997, Boxster (987), Cayman only. Other models will be added over the next 6-8 weeks.
• 100% new code! Durametric 6.0 shares no code with Durametric 5.
• Added coverage for many new control modules. We now cover every module possible in the 9x7 cars.
• Automatic vehicle recognition! On 9x7 cars, the software will automatically detect vehicle type and the modules that are installed.
• New short test allows scanning all modules for faults and see all faults on one screen.
• Quick erase allows faults to be cleared from all modules in one operation.
• Support for non-critical faults. In some cases a module may have fault codes that do not require action. These faults will be indicated with a yellow icon.
• Support for activations in most modules.
• Support for actual values in most modules.
• Support for 2009 DFI cars' Siemens SDI3 ECU.
• Support for PDK transmissions.
• System / Short tests on engine modules.
• Freeze frame information on engine modules.
• Coding on many modules (professional version only), some examples of things that can be coded are:
  • Added or removing control modules from the car. For example, disabling TPM, or PASM.
  • Recoding of airbag to allow racing seats to be installed and not trigger an airbag light.
  • Activating day time running lights.
  • Adjusting the behavior of each key.
  • And much more...
• 997 Convertible top calibration.
• Brake bleeding.
• Improved installation process.
• Automatic software updates.
• Improved work log.
• Command console (professional version only). Provides direct communication with the control module for advanced users.
• Workshop information. Professional version can add your shop information to appear on customer printouts.
• And many other new features

Since this is the first release of a major, long-term project, there will be many revisions and bug fixes over the next few weeks.


This release is only compatible with our second generation diagnostic interface cables. If you have purchased your kit after February 2008, then it is a second generation kit.

• The cable with a box in the middle of the wire are first generation cables and not compatible.
• Cables with the electronics in the connector can be either first or second generation.
  • If the cable has the light on the side that reads "Durametric," then it is a second generation interface cable.
  • If the light is on the side that says "Enthusiast" or "Professional," then it is a first generation interface cable and not compatible.
• Customers with first generation interfaces can upgrade to the second generation interface for $150 USD.
• For more information about why we are not supporting the first generation interfaces and details about upgrades please see our Upgrade FAQ

Both Durametric 6.0 and Durametric 5 can be installed at the same time on the same computer.

To run Durametric 6.0, you will need to:

1. Install the stand-alone interface drivers.
2. Install Durametric 6.0.
