<h1>V3 (ECMLink) Preview</h1> <div class="level1"> <p> Most people familiar with DSMLink are aware of the fact that we've been working on a new version for a very long time. Well, it's finally nearing completion. This page will serve as a preview of the features coming in the new version until our website and ordering process is finalized. We've also suspended sales of our current V2 product effective immediately (11/10/2008) so that we can focus exclusively on finishing up the release details of V3. </p> </div> <h1>New features</h1> <div class="level1"> <p> The first biggest item we should point out is that the product is no longer called DSMLink. We have plans to port this application to other platforms, so we needed to change the name to reflect that. The application is now called ECMLink. We're still going to stick with the V3 version number just to avoid any further confusion. </p> </div> <h2>Drop-in flash</h2> <div class="level2"> <p> The 1G version of the V2 product included a memory board that not only added much needed additional RAM to the 1G platform but also provided a persistent storage solution. Changes made by the user to the configuration of the ECU were saved permanently in non-volatile RAM. V3 takes this a step further with an integrated, drop-in flash device. This device not only provides persistent storage of user configuration changes to the ECU, but it also provides direct reflash access to all the factory code & table areas as well!! This is one of the more innovative solutions I've ever seen. I'm biased, of course, but seriously, I've never seen anything this compact and easy to use for any other platform out there. It's literally the size of a standard EPROM chip, but includes SOOOO MUCH more functionality. The picture below shows this device installed in a 1G EPROM ECU. </p> <p> <a href="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=9e9d86&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fv3peeks%2Fv3previewboard.gif" class="media" title="http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/v3peeks/v3previewboard.gif"><img src="/wiki/lib/exe/fetch.php?tok=9e9d86&media=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ecmtuning.com%2Fimages%2Fforums%2Fv3peeks%2Fv3previewboard.gif" class="medialeft" title="V3 Flash Device" alt="V3 Flash Device" /></a> </p> </div> <h2>Direct access</h2> <div class="level2"> <p> The term "direct access" in V3 refers to the ability to directly manipulate table data anywhere in the factory code. This includes tweaking all the fuel and timing tables as well as various airflow tables and even how the ECU selects which fuel trim value to update! Basically just about anything that controls factory operation can be adjusted to meet the needs of the user's specific setup. The following picture shows one such table. This particular table is the max octane timing advance table. </p> <p> {{<a href="http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/v3peeks/v3preview-maxtmng.png" class="urlextern" title="http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/v3peeks/v3preview-maxtmng.png" rel="nofollow">http://www.ecmtuning.com/images/forums/v3peeks/v3preview-maxtmng.png</a> |V3 Direct Access)) </p> </div>
