MotoUpdateAuthor

MotoUpdateAuthor is the tool used to package update files for service technicians to use with MotoService/MotoUpdate.

Prerequisites

• New application program (srz)
• Previous versions of same application (srz)

Packaging an update

Open MotoUpdateAuthor (MUA) - it's in All Programs -> MotoTools. To create a new firmware update file, click the File -> New menu option.

A new window will appear inside MUA's window. In the "Software upgrade" region, click the Browse button and browse to the (srz or sr) file containing the new ECU program. You can add an image too. A picture of the ECU in question would be appropriate.

In the bottom of the window you add old software revisions that this update package is supposed to supersede. MotoUpdate will not flash the new program to the module unless the module's current programming matches one of those programs. (TODO: What happens if there is nothing in here?)

Comments in the Comments section will be displayed when the .mfu file is opened in MotoService. This provides a convenient way to include some information about software changes since the last version.
