This listing is for M1 Custom Firmware for Toyota 2JZ-GTE VVTI

 

M1 Build is, simply put, a revolution in engine management customisation. No longer are you restricted to merely modifying the parameters made available via a tuning application.

By investigating and experimenting with their own control strategies and developing their own intellectual property, customers can gain a distinct performance advantage and stay ahead of their opposition.

M1 Build customises the functionality of the ECU, providing an unprecedented level of control. It allows the user to add Tables, Parameters and Channels and to enter ‘Script’ that defines how the ECU operates. The Script is a ‘C’ like programming language that enables entry of logic, calculations and algorithms.

If a new strategy is required to give you the competitive edge, then an M1 Development ECU is ideal for you.

SOFTWARE 

M1 Build is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for authoring M1 firmware to run on a range of M1 products. Its purpose is to facilitate M1 developers to quickly create customised M1 firmware by managing and automating the code creation, leaving the developer to focus on strategy.

M1 Build is available to download from the MoTeC website at any time, but it can only be used to create a functional Package when used in conjunction with an M1 Build Key and a M1 Development ECU.

SECURITY 

The M1 development model includes a highly sophisticated security model that ensures you are always in full control. Security features of the M1 environment include:

  • Fine grain control of end user access to the finished Package. Users can see/modify only as much or as little of the Package as is designed in by the developer.
  • Hardware and software is hardware-locked, based on the industry standard private key cryptography. This ensures that the development always remains secure.
  • Individualised licensing of ECUs, ensuring that only the intended ECUs can be loaded with your Package.

DOCUMENTATION SUITE 

There is a comprehensive suite of reference documentation, including the following manuals:

M1 ECU Hardware Tech Note

  • ECU types
  • Detailed description of hardware options
  • Detailed specifications of input and output hardware pins
  • Hardware communication options

FEATURES :

  • Dedicated IDE development environment with hardware description for M1 products
  • Tree structure to represent logical subsystems and define naming of calibration and data (channel) items
  • Calibration items from a single value through to tabular data with three axes
  • Floating Point data for arithmetic calculations
  • Customisable enumerated data types allow meaningful names to represent system states
  • End user help and documentation can be added to describe the firmware operation
  • Sophisticated security definition to manage secured groups of items and manage higher level operations
  • Two tier user management to cater for simple through to complex security management
  • Secure Licence system with industry standard encryption and private key cryptography to protect intellectual property
  • Fast one-click firmware build (via the integrated compiler)
  • Automatic generation of firmware description and Package assembly for M1 Tune
  • Immediate code execution for testing (via integration with M1 Tune to send firmware to the ECU)
  • 'c' like script syntax for programming the application logic
  • Selectable execution rates from 1000Hz down to 1Hz
  • Automatic execution scheduling via dependency analysis
  • Library of common functions to reduce script length and complexity
  • Automatic management of stateful library functions to minimise complexity
  • Pre-defined modules for common subsystems ranging from Sensors through to Throttle Servo, Camshaft Phasing and many more
  • Access to low level components if required, such as analogue inputs and fuel and ignition outputs, for maximum flexibility when developing custom strategies
  • DBC file import feature that defines the structure of the CAN messages and signals and simplifies the CAN scripts

M1 DEVELOPMENT ECU 

An M1 Development ECU is the same as any other M1 ECU, but it has been loaded with an M1 Development Licence. A Development ECU must be purchased for a developer to be able to build a Package and test it. The M1 Development Licence prepares the M1 ECU to accept Packages with a correlating M1 Build Key, which is supplied by MoTeC.

One M1 Build Key can be used to write firmware for many M1 Development ECUs. Therefore, when a developer purchases additional M1 Development ECUs, they will each get an M1 Development Licence which correlates with the developer's M1 Build Key.

M1 Development ECUs can be used for in-house development, or sold as tailored ECUs to customers.

Using this model, a developer could buy additional M1 Development ECUs to sell to customers. The developer would write a Package for the customer and push the new code into the customer's ECU at any time.

If the end customer wanted to do their own development they would need to purchase their own M1 Development Licence and M1 ECU.

MoTeC's M1 Development ECU gives you complete control.

Do you want to develop your own control strategies or customise an existing M1 Package? Do you need a special feature written for your application? Or maybe you want to develop your own targeted M1 Packages and on-sell MoTeC ECUs to others around the world?

MoTeC's M1 Development ECU is the solution, allowing customers to step outside the limits of off-the-shelf engine management and create custom firmware using M1 Build.

If you are experienced at writing code you may be able to do it yourself, or you can engage the services of an expert to do it for you.

What is required to create custom M1 Firmware:

  • An M1 ECU - Any model can become an M1 Development ECU when the M1 Development Licence is loaded. This can be purchased from your dealer.
  • M1 Development Licence - A Licence that enables the ECU to accept firmware from a matching Build Licence. This can be purchased from your dealer.
  • M1 Build Key - This is generated automatically and ensures that firmware compiled by a Developer matches their M1 Development Licence. There is no charge for this.
  • M1 Build Software - A powerful tool to customise an M1 Project then compile into an M1 Package. This software assumes reasonable knowledge of code writing; MoTeC does not offer training in this field. There is no charge for this software.
    This combination of hardware, software and licencing provides the flexibility for developers to create unique and powerful strategies while ensuring the protection of their intellectual property and securing against the unauthorised use of firmware.
