Software
When the programmer(ZN045) is connected to the AVDI you can start the software by selecting ABProg > Upgraded:
This is the main screen of the software:
The “Select” option will open the list with all supported devices:
The “Read” option will read the memory of the selected device.
The “Erase” option will erase the memory of the selected device.
The “Program” option will program the selected device using the data from
the hex editor.
The “Verify” option will compare the memory of the selected device with
the contents of the hex editor.
The “Diagrams” option will show a wiring connection diagram(if available)
for the selected device.
The “Load” option allows the user to load a binary file in the hex editor.
The “Save” option allows the user to save to contents of the hex editor to
a binary file.
The “Find/Replace” option will search for hex/UTF-8 pattern in the
contents of the hex editor.
5. BDM ECU Programmer
This function is intended for the BDM reading of EDC16XX/MED9.XX ECU memory. In order to read the ECU memory in BDM, you will need a ZN045 ABPROG programmer, ZN073 BDM adapter, and an external power supply for working on the bench.
- Warning: Please adhere to the provided sequence of operations. Failure to do so may lead to unintended consequences, the least of which is a bricked ECU.
- Note: The BDM Programmer requires the ECU to be removed from the vehicle, as the programming needs to take place on a workbench.
- Тools needed: 12/24V power supply, soldering iron, double-row 1.27mm pitch PCB headers
Please ensure you follow the steps below when connecting or disconnecting the ECU:
-
Ensure both AVDI and the ECU are powered off.
-
Remove ECU from the vehicle and open it on the workbench.
-
Solder 14-pin header on BDM test points, as indicated in the example picture (picture coming soon)
-
Connect the BDM adapter to the ECU using a ribbon cable. Warning: incorrect wiring may cause permanent damage to the adapter and/or the ECU.
-
Connect the BDM adapter(ZN073) to ABProg(ZN045).
-
Connect the ABProg(ZN045) to AVDI.
-
Connect AVDI to PC.
-
Power on AVDI. Ensure the orange LED on the BDM adapter is ON
-
Power on the ECU – it should immediately enter Debug mode.
Ensure the green LED on the BDM adapter is ON -
Launch the Abrites programming software
-
Select the desired ECU memory from the software menu
-
Select desired operation (read/erase/program). Note: If you want to program the ECU, the selected memory must first be erased
-
When finished, exit the user application
-
Power off the ECU 15. Power off AVDI and disconnect BDM adapter from target ECU
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not write anything in the first 8 bytes of the MPC processor shadow rows, unless you are completely certain in what you do. The shadow rows contain censoring information, and fiddling with it may lead to locking out the processor without the possibility for unlocking.
