New to S200b, what can i use?

Post by bdogggut34 »

Just got my car tuned on S200b. The tuner setup my 2-step and such through the software, and not by use of the pushbutton. He said i can go to Hondata website and get the software to change the 2-step, shift light, full throttle shift and such but i'm not sure what i can use. Do i need to pay for the software to do this?

Was your car tuned with Romeditor 3 or Romeditor 4?

99% he said V4, I think thats why he said the pushbutton no longer works as the setting mechanism for the rpm features. Is that right?

Your tuner needs to download the latest RomEditor4 and re-burn the ROM.

If you have the 3-step option then once he reburns the chip with teh latest version of software you should be able to set the options yourself. What is the serial number of your s200?

S200-3811 . Can you tell me all the features that i should have with this. I bought it used from the dealer/tuning shop. I know i have a two step at least since it works now. Also from what i understand, only the Keyspan USB/serial cable will work with Hondata right? None from Best Buy or Circuit City will work? Thanks

That s200 has boost, datalogging and 3-step. We only recommend the Keyspan, but if you were tuned with Romeditor 4, then you will need to use the Romeditor 4 software to datalog and you must have your tuner download the newest version of RE4 and reburn your chip using that new software in order to be able to datalog without purchasing Romeditor 4.

Hmm, maybe i'm getting confused. On your main page, under the software tab, i downloaded and installed "ROM Editor 4". Is that not what i need? I was tuned last week, and i'm 99% sure he used 4 also. And then i need to purchase the Keyspan USB/serial cable to be able to connect my blue box to my laptop. As far as datalogging, i do that with the ROM Editor 4 and not Hondalogger??
