Question for Shawnsheridan:
I have a few older BMW's (e cars) and this f car.
For the older ones I use a laptop running Win7 prof, has ISTA/D (aka Rheingold), Winkpf, INPA, SSS Progman, NCS ExpertTIS, Navcoder. I connect with K+DCAN cable.
I also have the software for the f car (the X3), and I would like to install it : e-sys with psdzdata. I have the ENET cable as well.
The question is: can I install de programming software for the f car on the same laptop and make it work for all cars? Using the K+DCAN cable for e cars and the ENET cable for the f car? Reason I'm asking is I purchased the ENET & soft from obd365.com and their install instructions calls for the EDIABAS folder to have the ediabas.ini file set for enet interface. I think that will stop working the other set of software for the e cars, because I already have the EDIABAS folder installed.
Is there any workaround? I cannot have 2 instances of ediabas short of renaming the folder, can I?

Thanks

You will need to edit EDIABAS.ini to be either "INTERFACE = STD:OBD" for K+DCAN Cable or "INTERFACE = ENET" for ENET Cable, depending on what you need at that time. For F-Series though, EDIABAS not normally used as E-Sys does not use it. You would only use EDIABAS for F-Series if using INPA or Tool32.

OK thank a lot.
So I can install e-sys for f cars, and leave everything else alone. Once this done, I can connect either K=DCAN to do my stuff on the e cars, or the ENET cable to code the f car.
Can I use the K+DCAN to run ISTA on the f25?

Thanks

Yes, so long as for F-Series you are referring to running E-Sys and not INPA or Tool32.

Use ENET for F-Series, even with ISTA.

Hi, just started coding my BMW x3 F25 2014 and cannot find FEM or BDC_BODY in my E-Sys 3.27.1 by launcher v.2.8.8, v.56.4_PSdZData_Lite.
Can anyone direct me how to make turn lights with fog lights.
(like this: FEM | 3062 | MAPPING_abbiegel_L_output | nsw_l) and how to turn on handle lights on when rear gear on,
(like this: FEM | 3070 LciMaster | OVT_BEI_RUECKFAHRLICHT | aktiv)
I cannot find this parameters in my e-sys. Thanks!

FEM_BODY is only in F2x/F3x/F8x vehicles (eg, 1-4 series, M2/M3/M4)
BDC_BODY is in I001, I012, F015, and G-series

F10 and F25 share Cheat Sheets. Both cannot enable door handle lights.

Thanks,
is there an option to enable door handle light with reverse gear and front fog lights with turn signal on F25?

UPD:
Check all BMW forums in RU segment, tried all combinations that works for other F-series, no one found solution yet.

Not possible in FRM based car.

Hi experts!
I have not been coding for a while, perhaps 1 year or so, and when today tried to connect to car again via E-Sys Launcher Premium the EST Software Token appeared to Generate Token (which I had already done in the past). And in spite I entered the correct pin it never allowed me to go ahead with the connection. I put the pin and confirmed it, then a window showed up saying "EST Software Token Successfully" and after pressing ok it reappeared again and again and again...
So, what happened during the time I didnt connect to car?
Hope someone can help...
Tks in advance!

My psdzdata version is "Extracted from ISTA-P version 3.61.1.001"
ESysLauncherPremiumSetup_2.7.1_Build_135

ED,

Seriously...you cant find a solution, yet the solution is posted right above your post in response to the very post you quoted.

Let me say it again.

Hi experts
First of all excuse me for my english is not good enough. I have been reading several forums to get involved in the coding process. After reading all the staff of forums and watching youtube videos I bought the Enet cable and i tried to do the Basic coding for my BMW X3 Xdrive28i fab november 2016 without sucess. In Peru all the BMW cars have the basic equipment. For instance mine have a 6.5 inches screen and full analog instrument Cluster.

Coming back to the coding issue. I think I used a very old software that is not longer useful Esys 3.25.3 and PsdZdata 51.3. It was able to read the FA and SVT when i Wanted to read the coding data it appeared a message indicating missing cafdfiles. I got only one cafd file (related to Kombi) just to prove. The esys could read data but when I tried to modify it only empty folders appeared in the window.
I would appreciate too much if you can help me providing me the current coding software and all the staff needed for this purpose.
Thanks in advance
