11.14 MIGRATING DATA
Data migration refers to the copying of tune data from one Package to another.
Migration can be required for a number of reasons. The most common is to populate new
firmware. New firmware will initially have empty fuel maps, ignition maps, sensor calibrations
Etc. Rather than requiring the user to manually search through the Package and fill in all of the
tables and parameters, existing M1 Tune data can be migrated to the new Package using the
migration tools.
There are two main method by which migration can occur.
• Auto migration
M1 Tune automatically takes values from the source and migrates them into the destination.
This will occur when you install new firmware into an ECU and the previous firmware
matches the new firmware.
• Manual migration
The user uses compare mode features to explicitly copy values from the source to the
destination Package. Manual migration is completed by opening two M1 Tune files at the
same time, and using the compare or migrate tools to copy the data.
11.14.1 Auto Migration
Auto Migration copies:
• Tables
• Parameters
• User Package Details
• Log setups
• Package Workspaces
Items will not migrate if:
• The source does not exist
• The destination does not exist
• Item quantities have changed (for example, item changes from Pressure to Force)
• Item changes data type (for example, item changes from a floating point to an enumeration)
• An enumeration name does not exist
• The user performing the migration does not have appropriate security permissions
