JB3 2.0 Teaser!

Have some exciting news for you guys. The 1.4 software is almost finished with just a little more testing to go. The better news is BMS has already started working on JB3 2.0! I am very excited as it will incorporate a lot of things customers have been asking for. Mainly, laptop connectivity, logging, and tuning adjustment. Of course, for those of you who like things the way they are, nothing will change. There is never going to be a requirement to connect your JB3 to a laptop.

It's going to be a free software download and will require you to have a JB3 Generation 3 board like we've been shipping for the past few months. Those of you with older boards will need to update to use this and I'm sure BMS will come up with an inexpensive path to do that. You also need a certain type of USB cable which BMS will carry for around $25.

Below are some screen shots to give you a feeling for what BMS is looking to accomplish with 2.0. This software is 2-3 months away from formal beta testing so please don't contact me about testing it. We'll ask for testers when ready. This is just a teaser post and I don't have much more information other than what I've presented, but will update you guys as I get more. It's an exciting time to be a JB3 owner.

Mike

WEEEEE!!!!! I haven’t placed any order for a tune because wanted something to be adjusted. I was looking to the stand back but I dont want to put that kind of money for street use. I mean, once you dial you car settings that’s it. No more adjustment until a new piece its added. But JB price is UNBEATABLE!!! So I will go for this when is available. For now I have to call Eric from AMS and order me an IC.

If you are running 1.4 then all you will need is the new software when it is ready. Will just be a free download and you will need to purchase the USB cable from us, so total cost to you will be about 25.00 bux or so.

What about letting it clear codes - like the BT tool? Or would that be impacting overall sale revenue too much?

Some new screen shots from the upcoming 2.0....

Its very easy to use as all you have to do is hit "connect" to go online and "start" to begin the charting. The important parameters are selected by default, and can be removed, or others added, by selecting the "add" button next to each.

BMS has also incorporated an optional TPS trigger point to only log at wide open throttle which saves hard drive space if you're doing runs at the track, dyno, etc, and don't want a lot of empty logs. There will also be a raw export to XLS option.

Also a few people have asked and.... the map selection drop down is fully functional and comes in handy

If I'm reading this correctly, this will allow JB3 interfacing via USB and will also allow us to change the map setting in the software?

Can't wait!
