Finding your Detroit MCM/ACM software version

A2L map files are matched to the software version, not to the engine. Two places tell you which one you have.

Detroit files are matched on the software version in the module. Here is where that number lives.

DDDL reports the software version directly. This is the quickest route if you already have the truck connected.

In WinOLS

Open the read and find ROM. The number below the ROM number is the software version — something like 13.5.0.0.

Why it has to match

A2L description files are built against one software version. Load one against a different version and the names it supplies point at the wrong addresses — worse than having no names, because it looks right.

What to send us

If neither route works, send what is printed on the module and we will match it.
