    Quick Question About ITool Radar & E-sysm Software??

    My first question is in regards to I Tool Radar, i just want to make sure that i have this correct, the program is used mainly to communicate with the car using the icom connection? so for me using a k+dcan cable on a 2004 525i [e60] there is really no use for the program?

    My second question is regarding the E sys software, so far I've managed to get INPA, NCS, NCS Dummy, Bluetooth Activation tool, tool 32, winfk, dr gini, coding tool, & find ecu installed on my labtop, tho have only connected with ncs & inpa before, what I want to know is if I also would have any use for E sys when it comes to my car? I DIDNT think about this till right now but also does anyone know if the dr gini software was updated to be able to connect with e60's? I would just try but attempting trial and error but when it comes to this stuff I am trying to learn everything I can about how to do things the correct way to prevent any costly/harmful mistakes. Thanks for any help you guys can offer.

    Itoolradar is for ICOM, yes.

    ESys is only for F chassis cars. (~2011++). No use on E chassis.

    I would really like to get Dr Gini to work on an E46 but have yet to have any success establishing communication.
    The potential looks very nice, but I have yet to directly talk to anyone at all that has been able to make it work, directly.

    yea i feel you i have the same problem i can get the to detect the cable but for some reason i cannot get it to read anything to do with the car, im not too sure about the E46 unless its similar to an E60 which is what I have.
