Establishing ECU Communications

The IPv6 protocol used by MoTeC Discovery (a communication service for M1 Tune) is the same method that is used in some internet communications. Accordingly, some anti-virus and firewall applications will treat M1 PC communications in the same way as other internet traffic. In most instances this will have no effect, but some anti-virus applications may block the M1 to PC communication.
  1. Power up the ECU.
  2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the ECU and the PC.
  3. Start M1 Tune, use the desktop shortcut.

    The connected ECU should display in the Online ECUs section of the Home screen.

    Select the required ECU from the list of available ECUs.

  4. Or select File > Open ECU...

    Select the required ECU from the list of available ECUs.
