difference Between ADX and XDF problems with integer numbers

Post by motorboy »

Hey guys

I´m new in Tunerpro and i`m makig the XDF file for an Motronic ECU by myself with help of an ols file and ols demo. im doing some good progress but i got 2 questions by making my xdf file.

1. what is the difference between XDF and ADX. till now i just need the XDF file for knowing with adress does what but i don`t get the need of the ADX file.would be nice if someone could tell me the difference.

2. my second question is that i have a problem with my tables. if i edit the XDF to show me the tables in Integer rather than floating point, i can`t change the values in the table the way i wan`t. i changes the maximum value. when i subtract a value with the minus button on the keyboard i can´t addup a value with the plus button.
with floating point it works. it changes the in a decimal Area.

i hope you understand my problems and question because English is not my native language.

thanks for the answers in advance

1. ADX files are used by TunerPro to interpret live data from the vehicle or a device connected to the PC via USB or serial. The ADX is to the live data stream what the XDF is to the bin/calibration file.

2. In short, this is because you're truncating the numbers that come after the radix in the result. Fake example: 1.123 becomes 1 when viewing as an integer. When you hit +. the result is 1.234, which still becomes truncated to 1.

Thanj you Mangus for the answers.

is there a thread to inlude Live data to Tunerpro from the Motronic ECU?

is there ac hance to change that so i can use my + and - butten to change values in Integer numbers?

otherwise it would be irritating to make small changes :(
