Please, please, please someone help me.

I have downloaded the beta software and swapped the two files overas instructed, in fact I have done it 4 times including re installing the speed passion software v1.132 onto my laptop.

My son and I have two brand new GT pro stock 2.1 speedo and have used them three times, but thought lets try the new "supercharger software".

No matter what i do I can not see the new software as an option to update. So we thought we would try the 107 stock software ............... it says it installed sucessfully AND we recalibrated the speedo to the transmitters but it is sooooooooooo slow its not true. I then thought OK lets re install the 110 software (that came on the pro stock 2.1) and they are still dead slow, even after another recalibrate. I have reinstalled the software numerous times but nothing changes.

Any ideas how I get my speedos back to how they were??

Or why I cant get the "supercharger" software to be an option in my software??

I have borrowed the Speed Passion LCD program box just for four days and now wish I had not bothered and just left well alone!

The version of software on the speed passion LCD box is V1.02 does this need to be upgraded?and if so how???

Please someone, can you help, we are desperate !!!

Ok...take a couple of deep breaths, no reason to panic...lol!!!!!

Ok.... you will not see the SuperCharger Values in the 1.32 software on your computer nor on the LCD Digital Programming Box. You have to use the box stock LED programming box to see the values.

Right click over the speedpassion icon on the desk top.

This was the only way I could get the new programs to show up in the LCD box.

Run the software twice into the LCD box and the speedy just to make sure.

If it reads ver 1.02 you dont have it in the LCD box right click the icon and run as administrator and then upgrade the LCD box.

Read back on some posts here as there were some issues with some people (me included)with vista.

The LCD box wil have V1.80 I think as the version number.

Sean; I understand that the extra values (11 - 15) will only appear on the led box.

BJ & Sean; What I dont have is the 230/231 software appearing to be able to download it into the speedos (once or twice). On the drop down in the V1.32 Speed passion softwareI only had 107 or 110 STOCK as options, so I thought Ok well I will try the 107 software, I down loaded it to the speedo and it said it was successful. But man is the car slow!!!!!! I recalibrated the transmitter). then i thought OK lets put it back to the 110 that it came with ... and the car is dog slow still (after re calibrating the tranny).

Now I wish i had just left it all well alone.

The LCD programming card is on V1.02 and I am wondering if this is not up to date enough to read the new "supercharger" software?? How do I go about updating the LCD box software from V1.02 ???????

I am totally P*ssed now because the LCD box has to go back in three days ...........AAAAaaaaaaagh!!

BJ; I am not fully understanding what your telling me to do .......... sorry.

Thanks both of you for trying to help me, but I am still no further forward ............ HHHhhhhhhhelp me someone please !!

Man this is like a nightmare ........... I dont even mind now if I cant get the "supercharger" software to load up I just want my GT 2.1 Pro stocks to be back as they came from the factory (ie. quick ..... unlike now)

Sean, Adam anyone plz?

How are you openning the speedpassion usb link?

If you turn on the computer and look at the screen when it boots up you see the icon speedpassion usb link V1.32.

Hold the mouse over the icon and right click on the mouse (mouse pad) a box should open (vista) and the third one down says run as administrator.

Hold the cursor over run as administrator and left click the mouse (mouse pad).

Try that as it is the only way I can get the software to work on my laptop.

You must update the LCD box first, I update at least twice to make sure it all goes in.Same for the speedy at least twice to make sure all software is complete.

baldman666

BJ; Thanks for your patience with me.

The Speed Passion V1.32 opens up and runs ok, I have used it, but I dont have the supercharger software (230/231) as an option to load up to the speedo.

I am annoyed because since loading up 107 & then back to 110 the cars are dog slow and not as they were before I started messing with it.

I dont know how to update the LCD programming card from V1.02

I am thinking that this might be the issue because it is on V1.02 which maybe is not "seeing " the newer software in the Speed passion V1.32 software.

BJ; ""You must update the LCD box first, I update at least twice to make sure it all goes in.Same for the speedy at least twice to make sure all software is complete.""
How do I update the LCD box ?????????? I am sorry if I am being thick, I appreciate your help.

Many thanks

I know its not right to say it in this thread but it may help if you have a look at the hobbywing xerun thread as there is a sort of tutorial by cheery2blost and also another thread somewhere also.

When you open the speedpassion icon from the desktop across the top it says device. Drop down box. It has three options

ESC

Motor checker function

LCD program unit


You need to click on LCD program unit when you connect the LCD box to the computer.

Hooooooray I have managed to get it to install and load up ...... yeah !!

I found that if I double clicked the shortcut (on my desktop) to open the Speed Passion software (V1.32) I just couldn't get any of the stock 230/231 software to appear.................... BUT ................. thanks to BJ (previous post) I right clicked the short cut icon (on my desktop) and ran it as administrator and all the software appeared .......... Awsome.

I have downloaded it twice to both speedos and bench tested and they sound awsome (they rev so high) cant wait to try them now.

Thanks for helping me out.

don't confuse the "LCD" box with the one that came with the ESC, after updating the esc you need to use the one that came with the ESC to see the extra settings,

I also see where you have a reading of V1.02 mine reads that and the software is there, many have reported it not working with V1.02 but mine does,

after downloading the new software, more then likey to your documents file, unzip it, you will now see two of the same downloaded files in your documents, (at least I did) so i unziped the the orginal again and added a 1 to the end of the file name, then closed everything, opened my computer, program files, speedpassion, then to my doc's open #1 and dragged and dropped the version file in first it asked replace/ replace all, i clicked replace all, then i went ahead and dragged and dropped the db3file as well, then closed everything, opened the sp icon on the desk top, and it was there. hope that helps.
