  Portable version, or install on USB
Posted by: Nerevar - 12-02-2023, 04:43 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (3)

Hello there,

I was wondering if it would be possible to get a portable version of Orbit? Or a version that we could install on a USB drive?
The background to the question is that I have a Win 11 desktop PC and a Win 11 laptop. I do not have admin privileges on the laptop, but I would like to avoid having to buy a separate laptop just to use Orbit. Undecided

Thanks!

  Parking sensor / Distance sensor
Posted by: Denis371 - 11-28-2023, 08:41 AM - Forum: Safety - Replies (10)

Hello guys, when I bought my xc60 T8 2018, I was a little bit disappointed by the parking system sensors, I don't know maybe this is a common problem or maybe just mine.
When you put in the R gear and driving back sometimes there is a delay on detecting obstacles, like the sensor do not see the obstacle, and in a few seconds I'm in the red zone and having a continuous beep, especially on the corner sensors.
Does someone have the same problem?
Is there a way to fine tune the system, maybe to change some settings which will improve the obstacle detection?

  OrBit Beta v0.9.2 release notes
Posted by: Power6 - 11-27-2023, 03:42 AM - Forum: Releases - No Replies

0.9.2 is released. Some new things are added and other features are released out of beta.
NOTE: Sorry for the delay, there were a couple late additions that were really needed, which extended the time to get them done, while anyone waiting for key programming release was hanging on that...

(Latest version of OrBit can always be downloaded here: https://app.spaycetech.com/orbitupdate/download)

New features:

  • Air Suspension Calibration is now general release, for all licensed cars equipped. Calibrate, and "trim" (lower and raise default height) in one easy dialog with OrBit.
  • Key programming is released, and available for all licensed cars. The CEM "Security PIN" is required to be entered to program keys, or see next item about extract.
  • CEM Security PIN Extraction is added to support key programming. This is integrated with key programming, OrBit will offer to extract the security PIN to enable the ability to program keys. Not all CEMs are supported. Older CEMs generally not, most newer (2019+) CEMs are, and some newer CEMs are in "experimental" status. OrBit will recognize the CEM and report if it is supported for extracting the security PIN. I will post some guides soon, but intially OrBit fairly well guides you through what you need to program keys. Just connect to your car, and click the "Program Keys" button on the Service tab.
  • CMA PHEV models are supported. These FWD PHEV models with single High Voltage Contactor(HVC) were not previously compatible with OrBit safety checks on the HVCs when programming. This support has been added.

Fixes:
  • Major improvements made to speed in reading data from the car. Connecting to the car, updating display info, and time to read DID data have been improved significantly. 
  • ABS config clear has been revamped, for all variants but specifically to address intermittent issues on cars with "vacuumless" brake system (BCM2). Some cars were not completing this step successfully every time and left with DTC history causing error messages. This has been resolved.
  • Updates to Air Suspension Calibration based on testing and feedback before release. OrBit now stores calibration info and shows actual suspension detected height even when "trimmed" to aid in measurement. Safety limit is added, OrBit won't let you calibrate outside of the same factory allowances as VIDA.
  • Updates to Parking Camera Calibration to match specs from VIDA for monitoring and guidance on the process.
  • Tweaks have been made to the "ECU Checks" when programming, to reduce the instances of "Flash Failed" due to ECUs not responding, when the situation is not very critical.
  • PIN Finder has been updated to resolve an issue of incorrect reported PINs on particularly troublesome capture files, i.e. bad connection quality with dropped packets.
  • Various small bug fixes and changes for improved reliability of OrBit

  V60 T8 MY19 Retrofitting seat memory
Posted by: Territorial_ - 11-20-2023, 09:44 PM - Forum: Retrofitting - Replies (23)

I'm currently eyeing a T8 Inscription 2019, and it seems that most V60's in Finland are equipped with power seats but lack the memory function. I'm keen to add this feature and could use some advice from the community on what's required for this modification.

Here are a few questions I have:

What components are necessary to add memory function to the power seats? I've come across the part number "30644884" associated with the control module that includes memory function. I did not find a cross reference to this parts so i'm not sure if basic electric seat have this module already. I've also found part numbers "31489630" and "31489631" for buttons on the driver and passenger doors. Are these the correct buttons needed for activating and using the memory function once installed?

Is a new wiring harness necessary for this modification, or can the existing wiring accommodate the addition of the memory function?

Does the memory function integrated into the control module also retain information for adjusting the side mirrors, or is an additional component needed for this purpose?

In terms of software configuration, what specific options or settings need to be adjusted or enabled? My plan is to utilize Orbit software to unlock the memory seat feature.

  085 Central Lock, Type
Posted by: A-P - 11-19-2023, 01:58 AM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (6)

Anyone know what "085 Central Lock, Type" does? There are two options "01 Without blocked lock mode" and "02 Blocked lock mode" (with my US spec car set to 01)

I'm wondering if this is related to the "double lock" function available in some geographies?

  Heated steering wheel
Posted by: Hot Toddy - 11-18-2023, 12:22 PM - Forum: OrBit Q&A - Ask your questions here! - Replies (15)

Does anyone know if Volvo’s are generally fitted as standard with heater elements in the steering wheel? Or would this be a specific addition for higher spec models or those including a “winter package” for example. 

I have a 2019 XC60 Momentum (limited spec) for which I have activated the heated steering wheel option through Orbit. That has enabled an additional control in the central panel, piggy-backed on the driver’s heated seat control, that allows me to select the heated steering wheel from level 1 to 3. Unfortunately, I get no temperature change at the steering wheel. So should I conclude that my car simply doesn’t heating element in the steering wheel? Or are there other factors that affect when it would heat up? Like outside/inside ambient temperature? Or whether heated seats and/or front/rear screen heaters are switch on?

Bottom line: should I be able to get this working with my model? Or would I need a replacement steering wheel that actually heats? Would Orbit be able detect if the necessary support is there?

Thanks
