Intro
You can convert a bin to a cal and a cal to a bin, a bin to a jcl and a jcl to a cal, a bin to a ddc and a ddc to a cal. You can convert a hpt to a bin and a bin to an hpt also. You can also convert a bin to a tun or what ever it is now. But some of you think I talk crap and can't back it up. Maybe I have special powers 5637 look at the time stamp.
- Hey, I've been searching for over an hour now so I thought I would ask for professional advice. I want to batch convert PS1 ccd/img files to bin/cue as it seems mmCM doesn't allow for them to be played. I've tried over 10 programs (PowerISO, MagicISO, etc.) and none of them allow for batch conversion.
- Upload your BIN-file on the page. Select target format and click 'Convert'. BIN conversion takes a few seconds. 📱 Can I use BIN converter on iPhone or iPad? Yes, you can convert BIN files from iPhone, iPad and other mobile devices, because AnyConv BIN Converter is a multi-platform web service.
This is intended to provide a brief overview of the steps required to get up and running tuning an OBD1 GM vehicle. It is deliberately vague. Instead of providing an exhaustive guide here, there are a series of links to smaller tasks and explanations. 94-95 LT1 vehicles are going to be an exception not covered by this guide as they are tuned via reflash only. See the 94-95 LT1 getting started page for more. The “What do I need GM” section is going to have basic hardware and software suggestions for groups of vehicles.

Steps
- Install chip adapter. The particulars of this will depend on which chip adapter you have exactly
- Install G1 adapter: G1 Product page (with install)
- Install G2 adapter: G2 Install
- Plug in Moates devices to your PC. With most modern operating systems, FTDI USB drivers should install automatically via Windows Update. In the event things don’t go smoothly, look at the USB troubleshooting guide.
- Download and install tuning software. TunerCat OBD1 Tuner And TunerPro RT are the usual candidates. This guide will cover TunerPro RT
- Install TunerPro RT: http://www.tunerpro.net
- Download XDF, ADX as appropriate for the vehicle you are working on.
- TunerPro.net: Definitions download
- GearHead-efi.com: Ask google gearhead-efi and your mask ID: i.e. for 90-92 F/Y body 1227730, “gearhead-efi $8D“
- You may need to Convert an ADS to ADX if you can only find an ADS
- Read your stock chip using a BURN2 or APU1 to get your stock bin OR download one online that should work
- Gearhead-efi has an extensive archive of many bins: Gearhead Files
- Load appropriate files in TunerPro:
- XDF first: Select XDF (this is a map of the tables and parameters to edit in a bin)
- ADX second: Acquisition… Load Definition (this is a guide of how to communicate with the vehicle and retrieve data)
- BIN third: File… Open (this is the actual file that goes on the chip, in the ECM, running the vehicle)
- Configure TunerPro to log:
- Configure for logging with ALDU1 logging guide
- Configure for logging with an APU1 also APU1 YouTube Getting Started
- Get the program you want in the ECM
- Option A: Burn a chip with the BURN2 / APU1
- Option B: Realtime tuning
- With Ostrich2 you will need a SocketBooster for 24 pin applications!
- 32 pin applications work best with Ostrich2
- APU1 works for 24 and 28 pin applications with no additional adapters
- After you have loaded a valid BIN file, disable checksum. To do this, change the Mask ID from it’s “normal” value (i.e. $8D hex or $6E hex or $0D hex or $42 hex) to $AA (that is “AA” in hexadecimal). This will allow you to make changes live without angering the computer. CRITICAL.
- After you have a checksum-disabled bin, press the blue “up arrow” to load your bin form TunerPro to hardware
- If you want changes to happen as you make them in TunerPro, click the blue “chip” icon near the arrows to enable or disable emulation. You should see the status in the lower left change to indicate emulation is active
- Start logging. Click the two arrows pointing away from each other. If TunerPro can connect, you should see the lower status bar change to say “DA: Connected” along with how fast it is receiving data packets in Hertz.
- Tune the vehicle.
Final Words
If you have prior tuning experience with other products, you may want to look at this article which discusses the differences between more modern tuning systems and TunerPro RT on OBD1 GM.
If you don’t have prior tuning experience, you are highly advised to do some serious reading on thirdgen.org’s DIY PROM board and gearhead-efi.com to get up to speed a bit.
Some CD Images are packed in the ECM file format. This can only be read by programs explicitly designed to deal with ECM files. Luckily, there are tools available that allow you to convert these files into much more usable formats such as ISO or Cue/Bin files. This guide shows you how to use ECM Tools to accomplish this conversion.
The reason why some files come in ECM format is because this format compresses the CD image substantially in an effort to not only save disc space, but also bandwidth in the process. That is why some of these files come in ECM formats. Decompressing these files is very straight forward once you have the tools needed. For this guide, we will be using ECM Tools.
First, you need to download ECM Tools which can be located here The RAR archive contains all the files needed to decompress ECM files. (Update May 13, 2020: Old link is now dead, try this).

Find a convenient place on your hard drive for your ECM needs. Next, open the archive and drag and drop the files into this folder. Once done, you’ll have a set of files ready to use. To use ECM tools, find the ECM file in question and drag and drop it over the unecm.exe file. Unecm.exe will automatically open up the ECM file, decompress the file, and close after.
That’s it! You now have a useable CD image that has been decompressed!
Happy computing!
