REXXER problems - help!

[Link]

And whilst we continue to wait...... I notice their website continues to claim the Rexxer unit is able to reset the service alarm for Siemens equipped Ducatis >>  http://www.rexxer.eu/e_rexxer.cfm  <<  At this time, any such claim continues to be absolutely FALSE.

Looks the wait is over I received an email today from Christan that say's they have fixed the problem and the up dated version can be downloaded from there web site in a few days. So let's hope it works.

It doesnt work.

Rexxer still has not addressed the Service Reset issue.  Months since a resolution was promised and still no progress.  Chris - with the best of intentions - has sent me a number of updated versions of the Rexxer software application, each with the claim that the Service Reset issue was resolved.  And each time = FAIL.  Unless I'm missing something....  a re-jigged version of the software which uploads your mapping to the ECU is never gonna resolve the issue.  Whats required is modified FIRMWARE for the Rexxer device itself, no?

And for any such firmware update..... yes you guessed it.... WE STILL WAIT.  

How can it be that make the beast with two backsing difficult?  Or maybe they're just hoping that we'll get tired of waiting and just go away.

If anybody else would also like their Rexxer device to do everything that was claimed it would do then I suggest you make contact directly:

Marco Daniele and/or Chris Schimmelschmidt

Your 100% correct I got the updates & it still won't work & I have gotten no response to my last email I sent to Chris it's been more then few weeks. Like you said Chris seems to have good intentions but one would think they would test there updates & realize they don't work prior to telling us "we fixed it, here you go"  I have fallen into your last category "tired of waiting"  Looking back I would have been better off with just the reflash & I still recommend there reflash as the mapping is great.

Agree with both of you. It doesn't affect me at the moment, but if you pay for something which doesn't materialise, that's not a good place to be  

Link,
Can you tell me what type of map you've got?  I'm running with boom tubes, and the DP ecu, and my map was designed for termi slip-ons, so would be curious to know what your config & map are?

[Link]

mickb, I have 2 maps one is open loop which I haven't used, the bike runs so good now & I'm done spending money on the mapping for while & I don't think the open loop map would make that much diff on it unless I went PCV & dyno tune. The map I'm using was described to me by Christian as "much better then the DP ecu map" basically the map raised the rpm limit allowed for slip ons' & hi flow air filter I haven't run the DP map so I can't compare but I do know the bike runs fantastic. Also some of the Rexxer probs. I have are due to me using a 64 bit system, Rexxer was designed for 32 bit software Rexxer did get part of that sorted out but my Rexxer User unit still doesn't preform real well interfaced with my computer. That's another reason I'm grown "tired of waiting"

NEWBIE HERE - trying to understand this Rexxer thing.

Do I understand correctly that they are selling an ECU interface tool that can

upload new/custom maps

and

function as a scan tool?


Or alternately you can send them your ECU and they'll just reflash it (for less $$ than buying the unit)?

Correct. 

[Kev M]

Correct. 

But only available from an oversees supplier and there is some question as to uh, how well it is being supported?

I have no intention of remapping the ECM (unless the stock mapping proves troublesome).

HOWEVER - $500 give or take for a tool that allows me to RESET THE SERVICE LIGHT, ACCES THE ECU AND REMAP if needed - sounds pretty good.

If it's missing the reset, it's incomplete and I have no interest.

So someone keep me posted and I'll be happy to spend some bucks if it gets sorted.

Its fixed.  Finally  .

At last Rexxer have been able to prod their Italian developers into coming up with the goods.

Your Rexxer device will now do all that it should've done from day one.  Shit happens and I have to say that despite my obvious frustration, Chris Schimmelschmidt kept his word and finally delivered - just as he always promised he would.

Its been a long time coming but here at very long last is the latest Rexxer console version which includes the required firmware update allowing your Rexxer device to also reset your "service due" indicator  >>  Rexxer Console F/W Update V3.88

I have uploaded this update to my Rexxer device and tested its functionality on my own M1100.  

And... I can now without any reservation recommend this piece of hardware for anybody wishing to reflash their Siemens ECU, read and/or reset logged error codes, and also as a service reset tool  

[Raux]

great to hear everything is worked out

Most companies would never have delivered on the promises Chris made. I'm impressed.

[ChrisH]

can the user kit reset the tps as well?

[Veloce-Fino]

Not necessary on the 696/796/1100.

It is automatically reset.

[mattc7]

Technically yes.  Don't plug anything in.  Turn key on.  TPS is reset.  Want to do it again?  Turn off, and back on.

Web site says it's 64 bit compatible but I can not get the new 3.88 version to load (old version worked fine on this computer) The computer says "destination file can not be created"  if any one has any ideas how to fix this let me know.
 Thanks
