Why use a calibration?

This section details the benefits of using a calibration file (.cal) instead of a .bin file for editing the ROM's parameters.

Note: Bin saving is only possible in Tuner Version of eCtune

Calibration Benefits

  • Calibration Holds all the settings of the tune.
    -
    Tables
    -All settings
    -Comments
    -EVERYTHING
  • Calibraitons are universal 
  • Calibration are backwards compatible
  • Calibration can be opened in eCtune, eCtune will use the baseRom stored in the program.
  • File extention *.cal
  • Tuner version can import/export calibrations

Example:
If you make a tune with rombase 0.0.35 and save a calibration.
Then, if you open the calibration with an updated ectune version/rombase e.g. 0.0.37 -- Every setting will be in the new bin with rombase 0.0.37. New settings/options in 0.0.37 rom that are not in 0.0.35 will not be overwritten. They will have the default values.
