BMW Coding Software E-Sys - Installation Guide

1. Run "\\E-sys 3.18.4\E-Sys_Setup.exe" to install program to "C:\EC-
   Apps\ESG\E-Sys\E-Sys.exe"

   (Install Password is "lo8F3lsVVg" if prompted)

    

2. Copy "EDIABAS" folder from "\\E-sys 3.18.4\E-sys 3.18.4\EDIABAS" to
   "C:\EDIABAS"

    

3. Make sure "C:\EDIABAS\Bin\EDIABAS.INI" is set to Interface = ENET
   (it’s possible it has a different value, in that case just change it)

    

4. Copy "est" folder from "\\E-sys 3.18.4\est" to "C:\ESysData\e-sys
   est"

    

5. Copy all "psdzdata" subfolders (all 7 Folders) from "\\2_46.3
   psdzdata\" to "C:\ESysData\psdzdata\"

    

6. Copy the contents of the "C:\ESysData\psdzdata\swe" folder into the
   "C:\ESysData\SWE" folder.

    

7. Make sure that there is a "Dist" folder in each of the Chassis
   (F01/F10/F25) folders etc.

   (e.g. "C:\ESysData\psdzdata\mainseries\F010\F010_12_03_511\odx\dist")
   (should already be set, but check anyway - if not there - create empty
   "Dist" folders)

    

8. Turn Car's Auxillary Power On (Engine Off) and make connection to
   car with OBDII-Enet Interface Cable

   (Wait a few minutes until the network adapter icon shows a Connection
   with the yellow exclamation point over it)

    

9. Launch "C:\EDIABAS\Hardware\ENET\ZGW_SEARCH.exe" to verify cable and
   connection are working

(IP Address, MAC Address, & VIN will be displayed verifying actual
communication to the car)

(ZGW_SEARCH.exe works intermittently on 64-Bit Windows - Not
necessarily a problem if the ZGW_SEARCH window is blank, so long as the
computer's wired network adapter shows an IP Address assigned to the
computer from the car)

1. Run "C:\EC-Apps\ESG\E-Sys\E-Sys.exe" (It will take E-Sys a while to
   write the log file) and Under Options, Settings:

   On the ODX Tab, set the ODX Rule Path to "C:\ESysData\Rules"
   On the EST Tab, set the Developer-Soft-Token EST Path to
   "C:\ESysData\est\Code Away.est"

    

2. Hit the Connect Button on E-Sys

   Select Target Vehicle (e.g. TargetSelector:Project=F020_12_03_503m
   VehicleInfo=F020)

   NOTE: Target vehicle for F30 is F20!

    

3. Select Connection via VIN, and click Connect

   (Window should pop up confirming successful connection)

   (The program will remember the "connection via VIN" for future
   connections)

    

4. When you connect for the first time to your car you will need the E-
   Sys PIN, which is 2690

    

5. Please see other how-to documents regarding coding itself.

    

6. Miscellaneous:

   1. Some modules take a long time before the changes begin working
      (e.g. trunk and mirror close). If still not working after an hour
      or so, try recoding the module again, even if it looks like the
      correct parameter (e.g."nicht_aktiv") is set.

   2. Share any undocumneted codings with the community.

   3. If Coding for an extended period of time (>30 minutes or so)
      ensure car is on a charger to avoid killing the battery.
