My understanding is ISTA\D is "diagnostics" only no possibility whatsoever of accidentally bricking a module. I do read threads, the whole thing, and try to show the courtesy of being up to speed in the conversation before replying I recognize from comments above that advice from hands on experience probably won't be had on this forum. Specific problems or issues from hands on experience would be nice. While I appreciate the general concern, I'd like to start actually understanding this software. That's an important distinction considering this is all new to me I'd like to understand where the concern is coming from.
If that didn’t work, you can send it back and upgrade to the certified ICOM A:įor the long run, or if you are planning for coding and programming as well, I would suggest the certified ICOM A as it definitely a better option.ĭo you guys understand ISTA and speak from experience using it or seeing others have problems with it? Or are your concerns general in nature? Now, for the connection between ICOM D and your laptop, I apologies that I should’ve explained that in a better way (my bad) : how do I connect the other end of the cable to my computer? SKU 023 is the cable to plug into the diag port on the motorbikeīut.
SKU 025 is the software to install on my computer (ISTA\D) If Rheingold didn't have one I'd have to think about getting the Chinese one. This last item, the ICOM-A is the one I was worried about I think this does the same thing as that Chinese emulator. If SKU 023 doesn't work, I'll need to get this: SKU 023 ($40) - cable to convert the ODB connector to K1600 port SKU 002 ($40) - from computer ethernet port to vehicle OBD port SKU 025 ($90) - ISTA\D software installed on my computer I think this is what he's is saying I need: Let us know if you have any more questions, we love to help.īoy, this guy is on the ball with the quick replies! I'm gonna place an order and slap it back over to him. Recommended CPU is dual or quad core of 2.0 GHz minimum. Recommended storage size is 256 GB minimum for Both software set and windows.
Paging file for windows to work properly needs %20 of the disk size. If you would like to add the coding and programming capability, here is the ISTAP: Here are the recommended bundle for your Motorbike: If you only need to perform diagnostics and calibration tasks, then you only need ISTAD, ISTAP will cover coding, programming, module replacement, and BMW approved retrofits. ISTAD will cover diagnostics, calibration, battery registration, guided troubleshooting, and wiring diagrams. I'm interested in buying the ISTA\D software and using it to perform maintenance and diagnose my motorbike (2016 K1600 GTL).ĭo you sell a bundle containing both the software and cable? If not, can you advise on what cable or adapter I need?
