        yea I tried to get crome to connect once to the ostrich and it didn't work. I didn't really care to use crome so I just said screw it and haven't tried since then.
        there is just one thing about ecu that pisses me off, forced updates. I needed to connect to data log the other day and my Internet was down, but ectune was not up to date so it wouldn't run. I know there is a reason for for forced updates but I don't know what it is.

          well the ostrich reset might work. did you try this for crome?
          Link to Ostrich reset

          my issue:
          crome or ectune wont read ostrich.
          can not even get moates firmware updater to recognize it.
          trying to find solution now!
          all drivers are installed correctly, i rebooted comp after every time
          please pipe in if you know of something. only thing holding me back right now!

          No joy!!! Soon loads of joy tho!

          edit:
          burn 1 is recognized. so its not the cable.
          battery checks 2.9V on the ostrich, thats good.
          just followed the Moates Support Site Troubleshooting Procedures
          downloaded TunerPro RT.
          site says to RMA it, fuck me!
          Time to upgrade to the demon!

            I haven't even tried to look into why crome didn't work with it. I have no reason to ever use crome on that ostrich again anyway.

            agreed.

                  did you setup the ostrich via eCtune? When using the ostrich in eCtune, it has to be locked to it.

                  go to emulator > ostrich info. The license must be true and the vendor must be set in order for the ostrich to work. If you want crome to work on that ostrich after using ectune, you have to unlock the ostrich via "reset vendor".

                    gotchya..
                    my problem is I go that in eCtune and it does not detect emulator.
                    I can not detect this ostrich no matter what I do.

                    I have reset drivers, installed new. it must be something inside of the ostrich.
                    waiting on response from xenocron.
                    unless you got any ideas!

                      did you copy the license to the ectune directory forum?

                      did you go to settings and setup the emulator com? Moates Ectune Ostrich should be selected as well as the correct com port.

                      if you dont have the license, it will not work.

                      There are two licenses. One for the ostrich, one for the program.

                        I understand what you are saying.

                        all license setup and ostrich has been registered.
                        I was able to detect it once but not anymore!

                          and just to clarify here is the email sent to Chris at xenocron.

                          I am having trouble using my Ostrich 2.0 purchased through xenocron.
                          I have been steadily using it with Crome for a while. No errors.
                          I purchased eCtune and got the ostrich registered through that software license.
                          I was able to use the ostrich once in eCtune then never again.
                          I used Crome and had same errors.
                          Crome - Cannot connect to ECU
                          eCtune- Can't detect "OstrichECT" on port: COM3

                          I then went to moates support site and followed troubleshooting procedures.
                          Used TunerPro RT and hardware not found.
                          I hooked up my Burn1 to the same cable and it was detected.
                          Used Moates firmware updater and I am able to detect the Burn1 and not the ostrich 2.0!

                          Tried to run Ostrich reset and also it does not detect the Ostrich.
                          Checked the battery in the ostrich and I get 2.8V.

                          Moates support site says to RMA the unit. How does that work with your company?
                          Thank you for your support!

                          he then directed me to talk to moates and let them know that I ordered through xenocron.

                          contacted moates and waiting on reply. in the meantime ordered a demon.

                            you have to unlock the ostrich from ectune when you want to use crome.

                            in settings, what do you have selected for emulator type?
