I just installed theV2017.3 BMW ICOMISTA-D 4.04.12 ISTA-P 3.60.2.001 software HDD on Windows 7 laptop. But failed to install and ISTA software gave error:

"Error in version of database

Existing versions of databases are not compatible with each other. Please contact your

Local assistance. The installation may be incomplete."

And then ISTA-P was ready to shut down

I followed engineer suggestion to change language to English ( or German /Chinese) to check if it is okay.

This time I can open icom software, but nothing display, all blank.

You need to update yourBMW ICOM Next/ICOM A2firmware to newer to work with newer ISTA software.

V2017.5 BMW ICOMsoftware has been updated to ISTA-D 4.05.20 ISTA-P 3.61.4.002. And here are ISTA-D 4.05.20 ISTA-P 3.61.4.002 on windows 7 reviews… here you go.

Download ISTA-D 4.04.31 ISTA-P 3.61.4 fromhttp://blog.obdii365.com/2017/05/18/download-2017-05-ista-d-4-04-ista-p-3-61/

Great Job !!!
and perfect instruction for install.

I personally went for VM WS installation, because portability is a
very important issue for me.

For those run out of diskspace, like me, I suggest to install Ista+ in VMware WS Ver 12x with Win7 x64 Guest. Earlier VMware versions down to
10 probably will work as well. Diskspace need runs to 350 GB. I used 350 GB diskspace on SSD installed in a caddy sitting in DVD slot of an i3 notebook.

ISTA can be working pretty soon,in case You are following the excellent instructibles of spider80 without missing not a one step of instruction.

X86 apps in VM x64 environment like itoolradar arose a java problem, even when I tried to install an outdated x86 Java version.

Mayor Ista+ / ISTA P working like a charm ( i used icom with latest firmware update ). Running ISTA /P requires good charging
equipment with constant additional load otherwise it will quit session . BMW currentliy advices supply > 70A. For older cars like E-series
25A seem to be ok in my opinion.

 

Installed…. 100% working ….so had to log back in and reply with BIG THANKS to the superb package with excellent step by step install instructions.
Just had two little snags when installing under Win7 x86 …..
1) vcredist_x86 2008.exe download was corrupt …..but easily solved by re-downloading fromMicroSh@ft
2) no Java included in download package ….again easily found via Guugle!

Many thanks again Spider80 …..you’ve done an superb job here, with brilliant step by step instructions
…..now I just need to find anBMW ICOM Nextinterface at reasonable money for all to fully work on latest B’mers!

This is 2017.05 bmw icom software working on my Windows 7. i confirm it’s working.

For the BMW X3 E83, a K+D CAN cable is required. For the others, I do not know.

Personally, I bought a cable on obdii365.com a few years ago.
I had unrecognized case errors using the software CD, since the DDE of my vehicle (DDE6.2) was not listed.
I recently bought the software dvd from CS, did the installation (guided) and everything went smoothly.

I use a laptop with Windows 10, installation without problem, only NCS expert stopped me 5 minutes because it is a 16bit app, and you have to specify a Windows to run it in compatibility mode Win95, 98 or Xp Right click> properties -> compatibility).

This subject is also a bit of a tribute to BMW's engineers and their subcontractor.


Who spend a lot of energy and money in designing systems that can adapt to any one-all through procedures, tools that are available from concessions. These initiatives are generally ruined by the incompetence of vendors or mechanics.


Who do not take the time to explain to the customers (us) what is possible, and do not usually do - except exceptions that do good. Here, for those engineers who simplifies our lives,


We will try to use what they have prepared.
For info, there are more than 1500 configurable options on the x3 (the extracted file is more than 3000 lines, 2 lines per option).

The base:
1-Then we turn on this computer
2-The ODB connector of the cable is connected to the OBD socket of the car:

3- Connect the USB port to the computer
4- OpenINPAsoftware (through the small soft initiator of CS or directly in the directory INPA / bin / inpaload.exe

5- The key is put into the contact position without starting. We can start too, it has no importance, at least for coding or diagnosis.

Thanks to the diagnostic software simplifies (INPA), I was able to check the error codes relating to my problem of ventilator.

Here we have the open INPA application:


You type F7 (X3 / E83) and a window opens to choose the box with which you communicate:

(Here the DDE6 for the M57 engine.) Double click on it:
Basic operation, read the error memory (F1)
We see that I have 2 candles a little weak. On the error is record so type, the kmtrage, the motor speed, the temperature, etc ... when the error has been noted.

These errors can be erased (clear EM).
And now, voila

If the problem is still present, the error will return.

You can read the information memory.


Let's move on toNCS Expertcoding software.
INPA is closed if NCS expert is used.
Once opened, it looks like this.

Before anything, you have to load a "profile" that will tell NCSE how to organize the data. We take the profile "CAR KEY MEMORY" made for this kind of thing.
Then we make F1 then F3 to indicate the car on which we are working, NCS Expert will retrieve the list of boxes on which it can work:

We click on CAR / Key Memory, and we arrive on this screen:
We have access to the parameters of the "car memory" as well as the memory of each key.

At this moment, here is the procedure to follow for this version of NCS-Expert (there is another one without the CKM profile):

1 - you have to do a "read" so that NCSE retrieves all the parameters (which will put in the associated trace file - in the NCSE directory).
2 -Then we go to the parameter we want to change (left part: Car memory, parameter on the central part eg CYCL_TI_BLK), we see the value in the right part:
SI einmal
dreimal.

This parameter indicates the number of blinks when the blinking switch is depressed without blocking it. By default (S) it is on einmal.

3 - To put it on dreimal (3x), one clicks 1x on dreimal, then F2 (take over). This parameter is then added to the bottom window: It is now in the list of parameters to be coded. : Cyclops:
You can add another one in the same way, c a d click on the parameter, its new value then "take over".
4 - Once the list is ready, we click on broacast which will write (= code). Nothing was written before this stage.
The value becomes:
S einmal
I dreimal.
That's it. S indicates the default value, and I is the modified value.

Thanks to the software NCSExpert and the version given by CS (which differs a little from the version a bit raw on the net), I was able to activate: (these are features of the GM5 box, Generic features):

- 3 blinks for a light touch on the flashing lights
CYCL_TI_BLK -> dreimal (before "einmal").
- 2 flashes at the closing, 1 shot at the opening
- Folding of the mirrors on a support "comfort" closing (press 1s)
BEIKLAPPEN_B_KOMFORTSCH -> aktiv
- Closing of the centralization after passing 16km / h
VERRIEGELN_AUT_AB_X_KM / H -> 16_kmh (several possible values)
VERRIEGELUNGSSCHWELLE -> aktiv
For this parameter, it is necessary that the parameter is also active on Key memory, otherwise it does not work.

I would deal with INPA and NCS expert. I have a little look at the DIS57 which seems rather sharp and works in a virtual machine, provided also by CS, it is quite complicated and not really welcoming as tools, but it also works.
