OrBit v1.2.3 release notes - Power6 - 01-25-2026

OrBit 1.2.3 is released! This update is minor UI improvments and introduce a couple new features as well as some normal bug fixes. We are committed to more frequent releases in 2026 to get new features out sooner. 

(Latest version of OrBit can always be downloaded here:https://app.spaycetech.com/orbitupdate/download) The "update notification" in OrBit will be sent later, but you can download the updated install right away from the link.


New features:

UI Updates - Added icons to most buttons and displays to make navigating OrBit easier and quicker with familiar use and when English is not your primary language.

New Configurator compares to OEM config- You can now see all "previous" changes from original configuration of the car highlighted in the Configurator! This one has been a long time coming due to the effort required to do it. But now, we have done it. You can filter only the changes from OEM as well as compare the current config of the car to the OEM configuration settings using the "Show OEM" checkbox added. Note that this display, just as Restore OEM, does NOT require any stored backup of information about the car, the "OEM" config settings are always the correct original config displayed.

New DTC Detail notes added to DTC dialog - You can now click on any code read from the car in the DTC Report dialog to open expanded notes about the specific code, a very helpful addition for troubleshooting from DTCs.

New DTC History - DTC report now has a "Show Historical Data" checkbox to bring up the previous DTCs read from the car that have been subsequently cleared.


Updated Features:

Updates to Software reloads module- Expanded reload scenarios are now possible for replaced/new modules in more complex installs such as ECM replacement.


Improvements and Fixes:

Improved Config files download - This is not specifically a code update in OrBit but includes back end updates to implement a CDN to improve the speed of downloading updated config files around the world, on start up of OrBit. Recovery when config files are corrupt or missing has been improved.

Various bug fixes and reliability improvments- The catch all, just like Volvo release notes. Many small bugs found and fixed.
