Graham Rudd Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 I've written a win32 app to change the TC settings in windows. Its much easier to use than having to use a comms package. Its a small project, actually written as a testbed system for a PalmOS version I'm going to implement. If anyone is interested in trying it then mail me and I'll send you a copy. This is intended as a personal project, and as such I obviously wont guarantee that it can't bugger something up. I can say that I've used it without any problems and everything seems fine. It replaces the need to use tracread/tracwrit and procomm. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted October 31, 2001 Share Posted October 31, 2001 Well done, thanks for cracking that one. Now may be I can use my lap top, the one with no com port, only USB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 HELP! I have been playing with this little program over the past two days. It is great, it is so easy to use, unlike the dos interface. I have checked all the settings from my car and on the standard. dat file supplied by RL. I have some very different settings for the one supplied for the supra by RL. Unless it has been corrupted, which is entirely possible, then some things are very wrong. eg wheel [(circumference) sorry diameter, se next post] 550mm, this equates to a 14 inch wheel!!!!!!!! My Bridgestone 17’s are 637 at the rear and 645 at the front. Soft cut 0000000000000000000!!!!:o :o :o :o :o :o :o Would some one please send me a standard.dat file from their RL disc. Please rename the file so that I don’t confuse it with other files. Thanks in anticipation (Edited by Phil Wall at 7:49 pm on Nov. 9, 2001) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doughie Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 Phil Have just emailed you the STANDARD.DAT file from my (untouched) floppy disk. am interested in what is on it ! Surely you mean "diameter" of the wheel ? I worked my rear wheel to be 637mm *diameter* but 1997mm *circumference*. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 Oops your are right diameter is the correct measurement. Thanks for the file. I will chat via e-mail I just need one more to confirm my suspicion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 do you still need another file to compare against? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted November 9, 2001 Share Posted November 9, 2001 Yes the standard dat and if possible copy the one inyour RL unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Rudd Posted November 9, 2001 Author Share Posted November 9, 2001 John, you can use my program to get the settings. Just use receive, then save. Alternatively tracread.exe will do the same job. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
