FORScan should work with the Focus? Also your link is dead, this is the correct link.
Sorry about the confusion, I meant to say it would be amazing if someone could make a tool like this for the S550; the tool in the link appears to be specific for the Focus.
no, but it does the same stuff as far as I can tell. Just a little more work. If forscan was open source I would give it a try, but no time for a new program.
Shame, it would be more dummy-proof for people like me.
there is a non-ASBUILT menu, but it has far less options. I believe if you can get in contact with forscan devs you can have them add the things we know work.
Right, it's kind of on us to get new stuff we find added to FORScan. Other models have far more easily-changed features (plain English options instead of hex editing.)
I can do that, but its in sections, so what section do you want, and yes its limited due to time taken to figure out what it does. I can take a shot in hex and in lamen terms so you can see the difference.
I think what we really only need is to know the significance of each byte position in the string. The name of the memory address is just a bonus to make it easier for us to follow w/o the need for cross-referencing every address.
Focus, Escape, and a few other vehicles mainly in Europe don't use As-Built Data for the BCM. They use what is called CCC aka Central Configuration. Instead of having programming in each module. The car is centrally programmed and all the modules read from that.
