Ok, a little confused here. I have a copy of Tunerpro r/t. I have an 8D.xdf file, an AUJP 8D.bin , a 1227730 8D.ads, a Super8Dm2.ecu file, a 1227730 8D.adx file. Which ones am supposed to be loading? and where? I think i am asking , am i supposed to use the ads file and the ecu file which i found on the tunerpro site? or use the AUJP bin file and the 1227730 adx file?

Here's how this works.

TunerPro V4
*.ecu file = Bin Editor definition
*.ads file = Datalogging definition

TunerPro V5
*.XDF file = Bin Editor definition
*.ADX file = Datalogging definition

*.Bin files are the "working" file for your engine controller (ECM)
This is a 1227730 ECM in your case.
The ECM uses a configuration of inputs/outputs as defined by the "Mask ID" of $8D
Any $8D software will "operate" without changing wires in your car (for the most part anyway)

Your bin file "AUJP" contains the variable settings you will edit to tune the engine.

The $8D definition (or other mask ID) has a defined datastream output from the ECM.
Using the *.ads or *.adx file, it translates or converts the hex characters to engineering units that you can understand.

So load bin editor definition.
Load a logging definition
Load up the bin to edit.
Make edits, save to chip, try it out.
Tweak the tune until finished

The V4 files can be "imported" to V5 but V5 files do not work in V4.

I have the $8D .bin file and the $8D.xdf file and loaded both and could not hook up. I am using Tunerpro 5 rt. Now i do have a 1227730 8D.xdf too. Need some more advice here.

Is the .adx the same as the bin file?

No.

The .ADX is used for datalogging. It is used to interpret the datastream.

The .BIN file is what the ECM uses to run the engine.

Is it possible to do any damage by me loading the bin file?

yeah, like i said, i loaded the xdf and then loaded the .bin file. LOL Instead of loading the adx and xdf.

Loading the bin to Tuner Pro? No.

Well, i should say, could i have damaged my ecm by loading the .bin file into Tunerpro 5 and then trying to connect?

Again, no.

So basicaly i am turning on Tunerpro, then loading the *.XDF file = Bin Editor definition
*.ADX file = Datalogging definition right? then, create a log file? then press start data scan?
