ECU PATCHER:

Automatically patch your ECU calibration with one click. Handles the full pipeline: export, patch, checksum, import, and segment swap — avoiding checksum errors. OS is auto-detected from the loaded HPT. Choose a patch variant (Main, DEF_RESET) and the tool runs the entire flow, saving output as filename_patched.hpt. Refresh to pull new patches from the server. Supported OS: 12709842, 12709843 (more added via server updates).

TOOLS TAB:

Standalone file conversion utilities packaged in the editor.

• Ford VBF to BIN: Converts Ford / Volvo / JLR VBF files to flat BIN. Supports VBF 2.x and 3.x with LZSS decompression. Output modes: full range, firmware only, per-block, or per-erase region. Platforms: MD1CP062, SPC5xx, TC38x, MG1CS.
• Cummins XCAL to BIN: Converts Cummins XCAL and raw Intel HEX to BIN. Auto-detects CM24xx vs CM2350B for address relocation. Output modes: EFI Live BIN, HP Tuners BIN, Bench BIN (Flex / Kess), Raw Flat BIN, or separate segment files.
• J1939 DTC Converter: Embedded utility for J1939 diagnostic trouble code conversion; runs as a separate window.
• ECFG2XDF (Beta): Converts Cummins ECFG parameter definitions and a BIN index table into TunerPro / HP Tuners XDF definition files. Generates scalars, 1D arrays, and 2D tables with axis definitions. Optional XCAL input provides the index_table_address; otherwise the tool auto-scans the BIN.
