FIXED --- another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Ok, I'm getting pissed!!! I follow the USBDRV.zip exactly and nothing. I got the updated driver and put the setting according to USBDRV.zip and nothing. I messed with multipules of different combinations with com ports and baud rate speeds for like 2 hours yesterday. I tryed to install the udated firmware as said on this link http://www.moates.net/documentation....entation_id=22

as you can see theres no programs for ostrisch. I downloaded the 2.13.a and its says that the software isn't supported with this hardware???????????????????????????????//

how is ostrich supposed to be hooked up for you can detect it in turbo edit? The ribbon cable doesnt have to be in the chip socket in the ecu?? just the ostrich connected to a computer via usb right?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

try downloading tunerpro rt and see if its detected in there, thats what craig moates instructed me to do and after It still couldnt be detected I sent it back, he sent me another one and it worked flawlessly

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

TurboEdit hasnt been updated in years...Im not sure it can recognize the newer firmware.

I still use my Ostrich 1.0 for all the tuning softwares.

Try BRE???

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

when i had this problem, i had to downgrade the firmware.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I was told by customer support that

"Many prorgrams have yet to be updated to support the Ostrich 2.0. Since you are not the first persono have this problem, I will request Craig to release a firmware version that is compatible with the Ostrich 1.0. The only difference is the version number outputted by the Ostrich." and that hopefully it'll be out next week..........

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

i had this same ------- problem, i think what i ended up doing was manually installing the driver.

so when you plug in the usb cable (with the other end in the ostrich obviously, ribbon cable doesn't matter) does windows detect new hardware? if not then try manually installing with the add hardware wizard via control panel, make sure you have the moates disk in the drive and browse to it for the correct driver, if it still doesn't detect it your fucked.

just kidding, lol.

you can either downgrading the firmware or installing a program that will tell you which driver you need, actually i think thats what i did, but its been a year or so since i have needed to mess with it so i don't remember. also if your machine does recognize that it found the new device when you plug in the usb cable then its not a driver issue, make sure to open the device manager to see what port it has been assigned to and that this matched turbo edit because everytime you plug it in windows reassigns the usb device to a different port.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

when I plug it in to my computer it detects it. I've plugged it in and modified the com ports in device driver and quadrupal checked that TE and device driver have the same com ports.......

Is anybody running 2.0 w/ TE???

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Hrm the 2.0 unit looks pretty cool, sorry i have the old one, lol.

have you tried changing the baud rate in turbo edit and in the port settings?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

yes, a bunch of times. different bits per seconds in port setting w/ every baud rate in TE..........

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

um, ok then have you tried downgrading your firmware version to the older one? found this from moates website:

"If your Ostrich won't communicate with your old software, you can 'downgrade' the firmware to 10.10.O until the software folks get their act together. Allows Ostrich to boot up at 115.2k baud."


its from the link you posted in originally, other than that turbo edit could be ------- with you, it does that, theres few different versions floating around and i have found that certain features don't work and such, using 2.6.1 currently as well, just don't get fed up.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

??I seen that, but there no software download next to it.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I have an Ostrich V2 and it would not connect with TurboEdit 2.6 so I did some reading and someone told me to try version 2.5.2 and it detected my new Ostrich first try. I've been using that version ever since with no problems.

Pm me your email and I'll send you the correct version

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

how did you configure the driver? via USBDRV.zip? and what baud speed, romulator or pgmfi board, etc in TE??

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I just tried it with 2.5.2 and nothing. it comes with the turboedit2.6.1.zip

In tunerpro RT it should read it automatically when I open the program??

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I used the USB drivers that came with my Ostrich version 2. I have the RTP set to Ostrich of course, the baud rate set at 38400 and it's on come port 4 for my laptop.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

nothing came with my ostrich.....

The RTP in TE to ostrich? cause it doesnt give me that option in the version I have. hey let me send you my email then.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I'll email you the exact version I'm using if you want.

Sorry. When I open the program it tells me it's version 2.5.0.5

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

ok, awesome

how did you setup everything in device manager port setting? advanced settings??

bits per second, USB tranfer sizes, latency timer, etc??

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Once I installed the USB drivers, I didn't have to make any manual changeson my laptop. It was detected right away.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

The email you sent me didn't work. I got a failure notice for that address.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

sent you the address again

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I just sent it again but I'm wondering if you account is blocking it because I'm sending you a program.

Are you on MSN Messenger

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It worked. so then I just hook up the ribbon cable first before connecting it with tuboedit. connect usb and connect it with TE. start the car and start tuning?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

SWEET!!!!! 8)

Hookup all the cables, open TE make sure it's connected, start the car and voila!!

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

so then you just hook it up to the ecu and start tuning. then save the bin in TE and burn that bin?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Yes. Save it for future tuning. I keep my Ostrich hooked up 24/7 so I didn't burn my tune to a chip. You can if you want of course.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

you da man!!!

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I have the same problem, can you email me the right TurboEdit ? Thanks from Holland :6

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

You got it!! ;D

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I cant wait to tune my car with it tomorrow ;D ;D

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

What's your setup?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

basic sohc HMT kit

HF manifold
IHI
DSM injectors and BOV
Turboeidt
Ebay front mount

I didnt get to tune today cause my friend didnt bring his laptop, but tomorrow after I tune I'll give a review for anybody thinking about buying one. ^ what did you think of it? Anything to look out for while tuning?

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

I had a local shop tune my car but I was with him the entire time and had no problems at all. The program doesn't have a many options as Crome but for what I needed, it did the trick.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

ostrich is the ----! did get a chance to really fine tune my map, but its still awesome. datalogging would still help a lot. Anybody thinking about getting it, I highly recommend it. though with datalogging you could probably do it almost as easy.... I dunno, but its still really really nice.

Only thing that sucks is that you cant adjust boost correction and I think something else but I cant remember exactly what right now.

Re: another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Changed the thread title for you then...

Re: FIXED --- another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

faq it

Re: FIXED --- another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

Stupid question maybe, but do you need the ostrich connected to the ecu to put a file to it? I'm trying to put a bin to it using crome with an obd1 ecu. My pc detects the ostrich, crome seems to but when i try to put a file to it, i get a timeout error.

Edit:
Damnit if I had just kept reading through my search... I'm all fixed up thanks alot xenonig, another satisfied customer :6 I wish all my problems were solved this easily

Re: FIXED --- another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

unplug the ribbon cable to the Ostrich if you have the ostrich plugged into an ECU when you try to upload...or turn the key to the ON position...i dont think its entirely necessary, but I have found it helps.

Re: FIXED --- another ostrich not detected thread turboedit 2.6.1 ostrich 2.0
 

So i need turboedit 2.6.1 for my computer to recognize the ostrich 2.0??? I am having the same problem. How do i get it???
