Actually you don't need any software. You attach the emulator adapter to the PCM (where the chip goes), hook up the emulator (via serial/usb adapter), go up to the "Romulator" tab in Minotaur, select a COM port, and hit connect. Then you download the 32K file you made, and start the truck. You will need the emulator definition though and Bill didn't charge me for mine since it's basically the same as your existing definition but it's made to work with the emulator.

You can select a box that says "real time update", which changes stuff on the fly or you can make some changes and hit "download" again and download the changes to the emulator. The engine will die when you do this and will require a restart.

Eight 7.3L PSDs in the driveway including a 1994 Crown Vic and 1973 F100/2002 F350. Looking for the next victim.

Download off the internet. Free.

Yep, just paste the modified 32K binary into the 224K file and VOILA!!

Nice! Well I thought texting while driving was hard, this should take it to another level.

I just realized since you cannot change any of the "functions" that shift schedule adjustment is out.


DANG!

Oh, my bad, Dave. Yes, the shift scheduling is adjustable. I had a brain fart.

Adjust to your heart's content.
