$0090
Firmware and boot block are not compatible
The boot block and the firmware must have
the same first two digits of their version
number.
Reprogram the firmware to match the boot
block.
$0091
Device did not re-boot after firmware update
The firmware reprogramming may have
failed.
Reboot FlashScan or AutoCal. If the device
reboots successfully then there is no fault. If
the device boots into dead-poll mode, then
reprogram the firmware.
Contact EFILive if this error persists.
$0092
CPU memory access fault, data not WORD
aligned.
Access to RAM and/or flash memory must be
made on a 16-bit WORD boundary. The CPU
has trapped a non-aligned address
instruction.
Contact EFILive if this error persists.
Deadpoll mode
Both FlashScan and AutoCal can execute in what is known as deadpoll mode. Deadpoll mode is a special mode that allows FlashScan and
AutoCal to be reprogrammed. Deadpoll mode is indicated by alternately flashing orange LEDs (FlashScan) or flashing LCD backlight (AutoCal).
When you attempt to reprogram FlashScan or AutoCal the reprogramming software automatically requests deadpoll mode. However,
sometimes it is not possible for the reprogramming software to request deadpoll mode, so a manual override is available. To manually select
deadpoll mode, hold down the Ctrl key (FlashScan) or the Ok key (AutoCal) while connecting USB cable. (I.e. while booting the device)
Deadpoll may be automatically selected by FlashScan or AutoCal if they detect that their firmware is missing or corrupt (I.e. errors $0085 to
$0088).

continues to occur then the serial number
probably is corrupt. In that case, use the
EFILive Tuning Tool software to full-flash
the controller to restore the serial number.
$0535
AutoCal is not yet linked to a FlashScan.
See also error $010D
An attempt was made to program a controller
using an AutoCal device that has not yet
been linked to its parent FlashScan device.

parent FlashScan device before they can be
used to re-flash any controller. Please
connect both FlashScan and AutoCal
devices and then use the EFILive Control
Panel (aka EFILive HAPI) software to
perform the link.
$0536
Tune file is not registered to this AutoCal
device.
An attempt was made to program a controller
with a tune file that is not linked to this
AutoCal device.
AutoCal devices may only be used to flash
tune files that have been specifically created
for that AutoCal device. To create a tune file
specifically for an AutoCal device, the
FlashScan device to which the AutoCal has
been registered must be connected to the
PC when the tune file is created.

$053A
Controller could not be licensed.
An attempt was made to re-flash or activate a
license for a target controller that is not
supported by the FlashScan/AutoCal device.
For example: You are attempting to re-flash
or license a Cummins controller with a
FlashScan/AutoCal device that does not have
the Cummins tuning package activated.
Contact EFILive to purchase the required
support.
Or if you believe your FlashScan/AutoCal
device has the correct package(s) activated,
contact EFILive support at
support@efilive.com.
$0540
Incompatible operating system.
An attempt was made to program a controller
with a tune file containing an incompatible
operating system.
Check that the tune file being programmed
has a compatible operating system with the
controller being programmed.
If a 97/98 LS1 controller is in dead poll
mode (i.e. a previous flash failed) then the
operating system cannot be accurately
determined. In that case, you must full-flash
the controller using the EFILive Tuning Tool
software.
$0541
Unknown NVRAM structure.
When full-flashing an LS1B or E54 (LBZ)
controller, the NVRAM structure was not in
the format expected.
Please read the contents of the controller
and send the tune file to EFILive Support
(support@efilive.com) for analysis.
$0542
E35 *.ctz file is not merged with OS.
EFILive only reads calibration data from E35
controllers. Opening and saving the *.ctz file
using the EFILive PC software adds the
necessary operating system data to the file. If
an attempt is made to full-flash the file before
the OS data has been added it will fail.
Please open and re-save the *.ctz file using
the EFILive PC software and then retry the
full-flash.
$0548
