I am doing research to finally complete my task and need as many ETACS configuration files from as many different cars as possible. Could you please extract the .cuf file with MUT-3 SE and upload it here? I think none of the cars output a .con, but if so, this would be interesting.
Please do not forget to tell what model year and region your car is. Also if its a imiev, c-zero or iOn model.
The file is under 2kilobyte. Its perfectly small to be upload here to the forum packaged in a .zip archive. This would help more then just me in developing software that supports the imiev.
 
Sure.

What are the exact steps I need to perform to retrieve the file for you?
 
Just follow the manual. In the MUT3 manual 9-4-1 - 9-4-2.
If you care about privacy you can remove the VIN from the filename. To my understating the VIN is not a ETACS config. So its also not in the config itself.

Of course everyone who upload the ETACS to here have also a second benefit: A backup outside of your house/car. So if you crash the car and need a ETACS replacement, you still have your ETACS config to download and put on a replacement ETACS.

Here is my file.

I don't mind leaving the chassis number.

This is a 2011 Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) i-miev with 16kWh pack.

When opened in wordpad it shows the following. So it seems to be a very simple file.

Perhaps the settings are saved as digits within. So maybe you can adjust your settings withing MUT3SE one by one and resave the file and compare the differences to see what each setting changes and where in the string?

If each permutation were changed, saved and documented we could determine each setting's variable for direct editing.

Also, my settings in this file are no longer completely default as I changed one setting last week. I changed my door alarm sensor setting from default to something else that I thought would stop the beeping when the door was open but it had no effect.

That is what i am doing. There are different firmware version of the ETACS. I try to find out the difference between those and if their config files differ.
For example having the overview ( https://myimiev.com/threads/need-your-screenshots-from-evutil-dtc-tab.5713/ ) of as many cars as possible and their ETACS config files should help to understand all of that better.
Maybe i would also spend money and buy a used ETACS from a broken car so that i have a backup when i start to do much deeper experiments and somehow make mine unusable. For example there is 8637A*** and 8637B***. I do not know if this is software difference, hardware difference or both.

The firmware files for 8637A*** i have in front of me at the moment are 810.mff (159KB), 811.mff (163KB), 812.mff (166KB), 813.mff (191KB) and 871.mff (726KB)
The firmware files for 8637B*** i have in front of me at the moment are 441.mff (375KB), 442.mff (375KB), 443.mff (375KB), 449.mff (397KB), 640.mff (326KB), 891.mff (396KB)
So please do not stop flooding this topic here with as many ETACS config files from as many different cars as possible.
 
I also got an other copy of an other ETACS config. MUT3 SE 2024 version look to have some protection build in that do not let you mix the etacs files that much.
The screenshot i attached shows the error i get when i try to write a different config file from cars that do not have TPMS inside. Or maybe its some different value from something else. Now i need to know what '31' is. There looks to be a database in diagbox and mut-3 se that have the ETACS values inside. I was hoping to not have to find out on my own how to dig into the binary/database files of those tools.
