ADVANCE88 ECU SOFTWARE
Here is the simple and secure method of update of your ECU with a new software version.
Download Adv88_ENU-1.8.0.0.zip
WARNING LEVEL : NORMAL
NEW FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS
• Improvement of the balance between cylinders for knock measurement.
Accepts a larger difference between the cylinders.
• Securization of engine synchronization in case of phase sensor failure.
Synchronization is not performed if the Hall effect phase sensor only sends ground.
• Memorization of performed engine protections (V170):
The ECU saves the performed protections in a permanent memory (it therefore remembers the protections it has performed even if the ignition is switched off).
This memorization allows to check what happened before when you were not connected to the ECU with the PC, for example why the engine was stopped or why the torque was reduced.
• Improvement of fuel pressure protection (V170):
A map gives the waiting time in seconds before engine stop protection when the fuel pressure drops below the minimum limit.
This allows to not cutoff the engine on a simple oscillation of fuel pressure.
• Improvement of twin turbos operation (V170):
When there are two twin turbos (1 per cylinder bank) and they are controlled by electric motor (like a VGT).
• Improvement of turbos speed correction by Ethanol content (V170):
When the turbo speed is modified by the Ethanol content.
• First version able to measure two potentiometer tracks on one main throttle (v160).
Previous versions measure two potentiometer tracks per throttle only for two bank 1 and bank 2 throttles.
• Complete flex-fuel management with Ethanol content sensor (v150).
• Machine gun Hard cut RPM limiter with burst of flames (v150).

• Ethanol complete tuning and Hard cut rpm limiter documents
• Advance88 installation: V1.40 - with commands of ignition modules (10th 05/2022)
• Advance88 options installation: V1.20 - sequential gearboxes, fly by wires, bang-bang, Vanos BWM ... (18th 10/2021)
Nota:
• Does not contain Winjall software. Winjall must first be downloaded and installed apart.
• Does not contain the sensors convertion maps nor the actuators command maps. These maps have to be downloaded and installed apart with the pack SensAct.
LAST SECURITY CRITICAL MODIFICATION DONE
Not needed.
NEEDING Winjall V9.8.0.0 (see specific downloading)
V9.8.0.0 or later version of Winjall software must mandatory have been installed first.
HOW TO UPGRADE TUNEWARES
• Download new .zip Advance88 software pack file and save it in a directory on your hard disk.
• If you have already install a former version of this pack, you have to usinstall it before installing this new one:
In Windows XP, execute 'Start/Parameters/Configuration/Add-Remove programs'.
In Windows 7 and latter versions, execute 'Start/Parameters/Configuration/Programs and features'.
In the software list, select Commander88 then 'Uninstall'. Follow uninstall instructions.
• With the explorer, double click on the downloaded software pack .zip file, then double click on Setup. At the question on files extraction, answer 'Extract All'.
• If the installation does not automatically start: in the new directory created by the extraction, double click on Setup (application).
