4.2 ESTABLISHING ECU COMMUNICATIONS
The IPV6 protocol used by M1 Tune is the same method that is used in some internet
communications. Accordingly, some anti-virus and firewall applications will treat M1 PC
communications in the same way as other internet traffic. In most instances, this will have no
effect, but some anti-virus applications may block the M1 to PC communication.
To communicate from the PC to the ECU:
1. Power up the ECU.
2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the ECU and the PC.
3. Start M1 Tune. See STARTING M1 TUNE .
► The connected ECU should display in the Quick Launch fly-out or the ECU Select window.
Example ECU Select window
Note: If M1 Tune does not discover the ECU, see Resolving undiscovered ECU
problems .
4. Select the required ECU from the list of available ECUs.
4.2.1 Resolving undiscovered ECU problems
When the ECU starts communicating, you will see it appear automatically in the list of connected
ECUs on the
Quick Launch fly-out or the ECU Select window.
If your ECU does not appear in the list, follow the steps below to resolve the cause of the
communication problem.
