Default Pegasus updates...Gryphon firmware updates...

I probably overlooked it, but where can I find info on software and firmware updates? I just loaded the new Pegasus update, but I was wondering where to find the changes that have been made. Also, if the firmware is updated, are you guys recomending we update the Gryphon? Seems as if some people lost files before when doing this. I was just wondering. I guess I'm an "update freak" and like the latest and greatest!!! :luvcomp: I'm guessing or uh hoping I'm not the only one with this problem. It's kinda like OCD. Thanks.

Seeing how fast you post responses...I'm guessing I'm not alone on the OCD It's no rush...tell Bill not to lose sleep over it...I was just wondering if you posted that sort of info. I would like to know for sure if it's ok to do the firmware updates once custom tunes are on the Gryphon. Have a good night.

Mark, you're not alone in being an "auto update freak" - I am too. I can tell you when I did it, it wiped my custom tunes out and I had to sheepishly ask Bill for help restoring them, which he did, very graciously, cause he's that kind of guy.

Bill MAY have changed things so it's safe to update. But don't try it until you get the go ahead!

Northern Supercrew asked the same question a few days ago, but I don't think Bill has had time to respond to him.

If, as I suspect, updating either firmware or version (or both) wipes out your tunes, this subject should probably be made a "sticky" in this forum.

The datalogging feature allow you to select from 5 different parameters (such as RPM, throttle position, load, spark, vehicle speed, etc.) and store about 6 minutes worth of data in the unit. You can then hook the unit up to a PC and download the data and graph it in the internal Pegasus graph viewer (very basic graphs, mind you) or you can export to a CSV file to load into Excel or other spreadsheet.

This is useful for diagnosing minor drivability issues as well as providing other performance related information regarding the tuning.
