Decode Blue and Me XML file

[Greg Elmassian]

I see the updating procedure is a 2 step process...

Step 1: get the little file and put on a USB stick, and get the info...

Step 2: Use this info to get the right update file and do the update via USB.

I just did step 1, and the new xml file created has this in it:
(USA 500e 2014 model)

It created a new file BMConf.xml on the USB stick.

Here's what was in the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<BlueAndMeInfo>
<CarType>500</CarType>
<Configuration>ZZZZZ</Configuration>
<BDaddr>29019_20_2377</BDaddr>
</BlueAndMeInfo>

Anyone know the BDaddr data "Decode"?

Thanks, Greg

OK, figured out a lot more, my BMConf.xml file with the configuration ZZZZZ causes a dead end.

Converting the configuration ZZZZZ to something different allows you to download B&M version 8.

Now I'm to the dreaded USB error 10, but will get around that.

Documenting this on my web site, need to have a page of instructions all in once place: http://www.elmassian.com/electronics-aamp-gadgets/vehicles/fiat-500e/blue-and-me-firmware-updating
