VAG-COM/VCDS EVERYTHING

...
guys let me share with you one strange experience had with a VCDS tool RL based.

I made all changes (as usual), remove the components, reprogram the GAL, reprogram the Atmega and also connections.

but - now is the funny part - when I'm connecting the tool to the USB port I receive the message: USB device not recognized.

Did you had such experience as my?

check usb connection, maybe some wire disconnected

One question,maybe this was coverd a loot of times but I have not seen it.
Why does often hapens that for example Op-com shoes like RosshTech interface,or Vag like Usb-serial con.
I now that is Ftdi question but why does it hapens a loot?

hello all ,

i search long time without result for atmiga162 (flash 1.81 and eeprom) ftdi 232rl interface not for upgrade just to repair vcds 912 interface.

@bibkare - I did not think about this issue!
thanks!

1. There is a very useful programing software with build in fuse calculator - http://atnel.pl/mkAVRCalculator_build_57.rar - it has an English interface too (you have to delete folder \mkAVRCalculator_build_57\locale\ after unpack).

2. Another thing I observed - there is no certain infos about lock bits (fuse bits are in many places almost the same):
in hex:
Low fuse: CD
High fuse: DC
Extended fuse: F9
Lock fuse: FF

and from another post:
LOW: CD
HIGH: DC
EXT F9
LOCK: CC

and from rsibiza extremeburner manual:
Low fuse: CD
High fuse: 9C
Extended fuse: F9
Lock fuse: CF

which set is OK?

regards

1. How can set lockbits to CC in that programmer/calculator? I can't.
2. I use CC for lockbits, that mean you cannot read the atmega, FF is use if you want to read the content.

I use the second! But I also used the 1st by mistake and it also worked ^^!

The third I never used.

Good luck

See above, at 2.

How obtain CC? See Ponyprog "Setting the fusebits"...
CD(h)=11001101 (2)...etc


CC(h)=11001100 (2)

Is exactly like in that screen..

I now that is Ftdi question but why does it hapens a loot?

FTDI default description is usb-serial con..., so if anything erase extrenal eeprom for example 93c46 you got default value usb-ser..., that's why you need to reprogram it with Mprog, regarding OPCOM that's probably driver issue or somebody force wrong driver installation

You right!

I can't set these lockbits too.

I will send message to the author of software about that.

thankyou , good job

hello .

i have a question may i get answer , i have a serial # of original vag-com (key-com). this serial could be coded in atmega162 dump in super clone interface to be like original .



sorry my English is little

If you have a non banned serial of a HEX-USB+ CAN Interface... you can do it.. but do you know how to?

For that you need to decompile and understand where is and how to change the EEPROM dump!!

If that was this easy, in China, they would bother about hacking the ATMEGA (with acid, lasers, UV lights...) they would just write down the serial in a piece of paper and change EEPROM accordingly!

Good luck

The soft is freeware version, not full.. if try select Atmega 48 you'll see. But the CC setting i think is not because of "freeeware".

(ograniczenia sprowadzaja; sie do mozliwosci wykorzystania go dla kilku z g?ry okreslonych mikrokontroler?w: ATmega8, ATmega162, ATmega128 oraz ATtiny2313. Sa; to jedne z najbardziej popularnych procesorow dzieki czemu w pe*lni mozna ocenic walory programu)

(Limitations rely on it utilization only for several define microcontrollers: ATmega8, ATmega162, ATmega128 and ATtiny2313. These are some of the most popular processors so you can fully evaluate the value of the program)

But You m8 right.

if the author write you about "CC seting"..tell us please..

I have Vcds 11.2 from china ,Before it is working But suddenly

doesn't recognize usb driver


I have try like this but doesn't detects Driver
Ross-Tech: VCDS: USB Driver Installation for Windows XP

Thanks
