8th August 2009 EvoScan GPS Navigator Version 1.5 Released.
New Features:
- Connects to FTDI to Serial USB Adapter for Innovate LC1 wideband readings.
yes it must be FTDI brand adapter cable, you can check on windows to be sure using usbview to be certain
your serial to usb adapter contains the correct VID 0403 and PID 6001 (PID CC4A will also work)
yes you can get one from www.limitless.co.nz/cables for $17.50
yes you will need at least a small 2, 3, or 4port usb hub, so that you can have two usb cables connected at once. (try to just get a generic usb one, I found some of the fancy hubs that had lots of other slots included, i.e duo/mmc slots. caused issues with "missing driver" popups)
- EVO9 ECU Rom Read/Write Reflashing Supported. (2005-07 Mitsubishi Evo9/EclipseAT)
- EVO7/8 ECU Rom Read/Write Reflashing Supported. (2001-05 Mitsubishi Evo7/8/Lancer/GS/GT)
- LogSeconds in the csv log file would reset to 0 when autoreconnect is enabled, this is now fixed.
- Alarms would save ok, but when going to edit them, the list only showed the last alarm duplicated down the list, this is now fixed.
- Sometimes I would double click the EvoScan menu icon by accident and it would load two copies of EvoScan,
which caused the second copy of EvoScan that was open to have an error connecting to the Cable which
was already in use by the other EvoScan copy. this is now fixed.
The Download for EvoScanPPC v1.5 is available on the GPSNav private website. If you own an EvoScan GPSNav, and don't have a link to this private website, log a support call at www.evoscan.org/helpdesk/
Installation Instructions:
1. Did you purchase your EvoScan GPS Navigator before 28th July 2009? then firstly upgrade your Operating System Firmware to v106 (as shown on the gpsnav private website. If you own an EvoScan GPSNav, and don't have a link to this private website, log a support call at www.evoscan.org/helpdesk/ )
2. Exit to the main menu on the display unit.
3. Remove the blue SD card from the side of your display unit
4. Insert the Blue SDCard it into your Red PC USB/SD card adapter, and plug the usb end into your laptop or PC.
5. If a dialog appears, choose "browse" disk
6. EvoScanPPC v1.5 is a full directory install, so please rename the EvoScanPPC folder to EvoScanPPC_Old (or backup the EvoScanPPC folder by copying it to your PC Somewhere, or delete the EvoScanPPC folder if you have no log files you wish to keep.)
7. Unzip the file above into a folder called /EvoScanPPC/ on the sd card. (IMPORTANT Ensure the folder is called "EvoScanPPC" on the sdcard)
8. Wait for the light to stop flashing on the Red SDCard Adapter
9. Replace the Blue SD Card back into the EvoScan GPS Navigator Display Unit.
10. Click EvoScan from the main menu, after it is loaded, you should see v1.5 in the top right hand corner if all is well.

Serial Wideband adapter
Hello Hamish,
I have a W02 that can emulate the LC1 but does not have the same MTS serial interface its actually a DIY kit I built (http://14point7.com/Widebands/JAW_1_03/JAW_1_03.htm)
Do you have any plans to offer a more generic serial logging hardware for the GPS unit? I'm sure I can get my JAW working even if I have to figure out the MTS (serial) but don't want to duplicate any of your future efforts!
Thanks
Charlie

So I got a weird issue. In the last beta my UEGO WB would log all the way thru the pull. Now with the new full v2.6 install it logs 3 seconds and then stops. Any ideas?

yes, but it needs a usb5v connector (not the car 12v), so yes you can buy a 12v to 5v chip from the electronics store and hook it up. otherwise you can just pull the cigerette lighter adapter apart and wire it indirectly to 12v.
any voluenteers in NZ?
