Thread: New Nanocom Evolution News

Thanks for your reply Peter and the recommendations you made which I have tried but to no avail.
The screen still says Kernel firmware Rev 1.00
Graphic Controller Firmware Rev1.1
Error:NC_FIRMWARE DISK not found!!!
I think that some of the younger generation(when they finish laughing) will have to take over from here.
Thanks again for your help.

G'day Bob,

What happened when you plugged in just the USB cable ? I assume you are using a reasonably current version of Windows ?

Did you manage to copy the firmware onto the Nano ?

I expect there will be some computer savvy AULRO-ians close to you but if not, I am happy to have a look. PM me if needed.

Well my Evolution turned up yesterday, pretty quick delivery time, and I had no issues with communication or payment.

So I went out for a play tonight and cleared my three amigo faults, it registered 23 intermittent faults. I was tinkering around with the suspension type or transport mode, and now the D2 is sitting on her bum with a self-leveling suspension warning light.



When I drive it pumps up, but the light remains, and dumps the pressure when I shut it down. No fault is logged, and this is the SLABS setting data output:

• param;value
• Test Status;ENABLED
• Transport Mode;ENABLED
• ECU Calibrated;YES Suspension Type;
• AIR Left Stored Height;
• 091 Right Stored Height;106

I've tried changing the Transport mode and Suspension type mode, but it hasn't changed. Any ideas on how to clear or reset this fault?

Cheers,

Pete

dustnmud Hi... Sent you an email ...

The firmware version on the nanocom restricted site is for the older unit.. Information in the quick reference guide (download from Nanocom Evolution area) outlines a procedure to create a restore file from which it can restore the NC_FIRMWARE, in case of file system corruption..

[URL="http://web.nanocom.it/download/NANOCOME%20VOLUTION%20QUICK%20REFERENCE%20R1.0.pdf "]

Very important to create that restore file before exploring the potential of the new unit... Keep a copy on pc as a backup...
Will post some pics of the unit in action... soon..

Hi mirror11726

I had exactly the same with my new Evo. After a few days I found the answer.

With the ignition on
1. Go to DiscoveryII
2. SLABS
3. Scroll to page 2 and Go to Utility
4. SLS HEIGHT CALIBRATION
5. Raise left and right to the desired height.
6. DO NOT STORE HEIGHTS
7. Click the X 3 times
8. SLABS
9. SETTING
10 Scroll to next page
11. Check left and right stored heights are similar and WRITE SETTINGS
12. turn ignition off as it instructs.
13. Do not touch anything for 60 seconds as it says.
14. click OK

Hopefully switch engine on - no fault light - car stays up.

Well I cleared my ABS fault, the ride height needed to be between 150 and 180. Got the car to the correct height and saved the settings. All good.

Lesson learned: don't press buttons to see what happens

Pete.

I'm thinking of buying the new nanacom.

The site talks about a future "expansion board" allowing sensors.

Is this a hardware modification to the "Evolution" that you need to open it up and just “plug in” a component? Or is this some serious modifications?


If I do buy one, my old nanacom (never used) will be for sale

Bob.
This manual might help. I downloaded it from the Nanaocom site
