New to DHP and tuning

Hey guys, i have a few questions that I would appreciate help with when using/installing DHP.

1. How do install DHP software onto my computer? I have a windows 10 machine, i just did the 1.1.43 .NET Framework install. What service packs and such do i need to run the program with?

2. What is the best scanning software to use? Free is for me lol

3. Can anyone direct me towards a decent guide on how to tune using DHP??
 


Blah, i get the interface in today lol. i installed the MDAC or whatever thing that it called for too lol was it even needed?
 
no idea wtf that is. alli did was install the 1.1 dotframework bs, install the key span driver for my os, then set the com port and its speed.

either way, you cant do a thing till dhp is unlocked. it needs to be hooked up to the car, key on and the lap top to register it.
 
Oh Jesus so many files! So I did .NET framework, and I installed DHP but you are right, it wants registration first. After that I do the updates to get to v2.3??
 
any version you install needs to be registered. dont matter what one you use. no need to start low and upgrade to the next one. want 1,2,4 use it.
 


Sorry for sounding newbish. I'm usually pretty computer savy but this software is before my time haha I'm used to everything always wanted to auto-update haha
 
What the hell are bins and how do they relate to DHP? Are they just base tunes or something? I'm gonna install the newest version of DHP and then make a copy of my ZZP PCM for a backup first.
 
A .bin is the file extension of the tune on your PCM. basically it is the file of the PCM that contains the calibration. its the file that you edit when tuning.
 
Man I have a lot to learn lol is there a post outlining a basics on using DHP? I know one exists for HPT on here
 


in the drop box link, d/l jerrys tuner hand book, or what ever its called. thats a dhp noob hand book, it uses eddies table modifier thingy to make changes for you. ( good for when you new and scared to make your own changes yet)
 


Okay Keyspan driver is all set! USPS ****ed up and now i wont get the chipset until tmrw :th_thumb-down:
 
Hey Scotty, what do you use to scan the PCM and log? I have heard something called UVScanner, that correct? install along side the Powrtuner software?
