Licensing Questions
How do I know if my license is properly installed?
Why do I get a licensing error when I try to do a Raptor-Dev build?
Ensure your USB license dongle is plugged in and your license is up-to-date. Verify this in the New Eagle License Viewer tool by clicking “Update License Online”.
Compiling & Building Questions
What compilers are used with Raptor-Dev?
Each Raptor controller data sheet lists the compiler required for the controller. In general, here is the list of compiler vendors for Raptor targets:
- IAR is for CM3620
- Freescale for the CM0711, CM2115 and CM3626
- GCC for VeeCAN displays
- Hitech for ECM196 Bosch controller
What is an .rpg file?
An .rpg file uses the Raptor Package file format and contains both the software and calibration data generated during a Raptor build.
Where are build files saved?
Build files are saved in C:\ECU.
What is an .a2l file?
An .a2l file contains calibration signal information. .a2l files are generated during a Raptor-Dev build and can be loaded and merged using Raptor-Cal.
Programming & Calibration Questions
How I program a Raptor-Dev software build onto a Raptor control module?
A separate calibration tool must be used to program Raptor-Dev software builds onto Raptor control modules. Customers can choose to user either Raptor-Cal or any tool that follows the XCP protocol.
How I program a Raptor-Dev software build onto a Raptor display?
Raptor displays are programmed using a USB flash drive. Raptor-Cal can be used to load the software build onto a usb flash drive.
