==== Finding the A2L for you car ==== Inside A2L there is an identifier called the ''EPK''. This is hardcoded inside the A2L and, in addition, there is an ''EPK_ADDR'' property which provides a memory location for the EPK in calibration data files. This allows people and software tools to match up EPKs in an A2L and a bin. Here is an example: /begin MOD_PAR "MG1CS003" VERSION "R1C2J8B3B" ADDR_EPK 0x96C5AE8 EPK "53/1/MG1CS003/11/MG1CS003_BX8_R1C2J8B3B//R1C2J8B3B///" ... A technical issue is that if we start with a (stock) bin taken from a car, we do not know the EPK_ADDR. Nonetheless we can use a command like the linux strings command to scan the bin and find the EPK string. Alternatively tools like WinOLS will search for and find it (including the demo version). $ strings 00003076501103_original.bin | grep MG1CS003 #DME__861#D1#BTL#MDG1G_LK-CB_011_253.5_1.A#MG1CS003_LK______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 53/1/MG1CS003/11/MG1CS003_BX8_R1C2J8B3B//R1C2J8B3B/// 53/1/MG1CS003/11/MG1CS003_BX8_R1C2J8B3B//R1C2J8B3B/// Clearly this bin corresponds to A2L version '''R1C2J8B3B'''.
