Flex version 3.4.0.0 released

FLEX release ver. 3.4.0.0 – Denso ECUs (with Renesas processor) are now available by OBD and bench modes!

This OBD & bench protocol is an exclusive of Flex, and can be considered an improvement of the bench protocol for Tricore-based BOSCH ECUs. Fast, safe and able to both tune and clone, this new solution will change the way most mechatronics work in their daily life.

At the moment we support many new ECUs – some of them are not even possible by any other protocol. It is also the first world solution for Volvo Denso with SH72543 processor (for example Volvo V40 2.0 T 2016): you can now tune them and clone them without even looking at the engine bay!

We are working to add more models with next updates!

OBD & Bench Denso Renesas

What is that?

The Renesas processors are usually found on japanese-built control units and are quite common more on japanese vehicles than on their western counterparts.

The most famous families are SH705x and SH725xx, which are widely used from 2005 to today. Denso is a ECU manufacturer that vastly uses Renesas processors.

These OBD & bench protocols allow for full ECU access: both internal flash and internal EEPROM can be entirely read and written as a backup file for cloning and restoring purposes, and Flex allows to read and write maps directly, as well as calculate checksum for all the tuning enthusiasts.

At the moment the special protocol seems to work on specific ECUs, but we are constantly expanding our technology and we are already looking for some extra unit to add to the list. Stay tuned for more surprises!

Special features:

Those are all exclusive protocols for Flex, never seen on X17 – and never seen at all in the field. High programming speed, combined with OBD mode – the most easy working method allow for faster, safer and more cost-efficient jobs, increasing considerably the quality of your workday. Some of these ECUs are too complicated to open and work in AUD or JTAG modes – in these cases, don’t open them, you do not even need to see the ECU – just Flex them!

Which software package should I purchase?

Most of those protocols (only exception are those dedicated to Kubota tractors) are free of charge for all owners of OBD/Bench protocols, and owners of X17 (upgrade can still be done for 195€ + VAT).

Contact the Sales Department via chat at www.magicmotorsport.com or send an email to info@magicmotorsport.com to purchase the OBD/Bench protocols for ECUs (car, bikes, vans) package (FLS0.1M/S) or the dedicated Renesas package (FLS0.6M/S), which will have in future also support for AUD mode and includes all protocols in OBD & bench mode as well: that will be ideal for any Renesas based control unit.
