xdfkit v0.0.8 — ECU map converter for Windows#
Convert KP ↔ XDF, analyze maps, and manage ECU definitions — now with a convenient graphical interface!#
No command line or complicated manual setup required. Simply select a file, choose the operation you need, configure the options, and get the result right in the application.Introducing an unofficial Windows GUI build based on the open-source project xdfkit by nyetlabs.
The original application runs from the command line. This release includes a separate English-language graphical interface and a full Windows installer.
The main advantage: all the features of the original xdfkit 0.0.8 are available through a standard Windows graphical interface.
Program features#
1. WinOLS KP ↔ TunerPro XDF#
Convert ECU calibration map definitions between the WinOLS KP and TunerPro XDF formats.To improve the accuracy of restoring definitions during reverse conversion, additional .meta.json metadata and the original KP template are supported.
2. JSON, YAML, and CSV#
Read and write definitions in the JSON/YAML. formats Convert definitions KP/XDF into structured data formats. Export map lists to CSV for further analysis, including in Excel.
3. Merge — combine map definitions#
Combine data from two definition files.The Update addresses and sizes mode lets you transfer corrected addresses and sizes while retaining the original map names, conversion factors, and units of measurement.
Useful for comparing different definitions for the same ECU firmware or processing the results of map searches.
4. Lint — find errors in KP#
Check KP files for supported structural errors using the corresponding BIN file.The program helps identify certain issues with axis definitions, map addresses, and map sizes.
5. Fix — repair KP definitions#
Fix supported errors according to the rules of the original xdfkit engine, with configurable processing options.
6. Verify — file integrity check#
Checks integrity markers in JSON/YAML files to determine whether a file has been modified since it was created.
What’s new in the Windows version?#
The package includes a standalone graphical interface, so you can now use the original tool’s features without entering commands manually.Available interface features:
Convert a description file — standard file conversion. Batch conversion — quickly process multiple files. Merge two descriptions — merge description files. Check a KP file — analyze KP descriptions. Fix errors in a KP file — restore KP descriptions. Check file changes — verify file integrity. Advanced options — additional settings. Results / details and warnings — view results and warnings. Technical command — view the command used for the operation.
Easy installation#
The package includes a Windows installer Setup.exe.The program installs like a regular Windows application, with an icon, desktop and Start menu shortcuts, and a standard uninstall process.
There’s no need to install Python, Go, or .NET Runtime separately.
Who is this tool for?#
ECU tuning and calibration specialists. Users of WinOLS and TunerPro.
Developers of tools for analyzing automotive ECU firmware.
Anyone who works with KP/XDF files, compares map descriptions, or organizes ECU calibration data.
How to use it#
1. Install the application using Setup.exe.2. Launch xdfkit Windows.
3. Select the required operation from the drop-down menu at the top.
4. Select the source file and the desired output format.
5. Open the advanced settings if needed.
6. Click Convert to process the file and get the result.
Some operations may require the corresponding BIN file, KP template, or metadata file.
Technical information#
Application: xdfkit Windows GUIVersion: 0.0.8
Operating system: Windows 10/11 x64
Interface language: English
Installer: Setup.exe
Original engine: xdfkit by nyetlabs
Original project license: LGPL-3.0-or-later
Build type: Unofficial adaptation with a graphical interface for Windows.
Important limitations#
The application works with ECU calibration map definitions, but is not a full-featured BIN firmware editor.It does not read or write ECU data through diagnostic interfaces, nor does it automatically transfer calibration values between firmware files.
Format compatibility depends on the capabilities of the original xdfkit 0.0.8 engine.
A2L and DAMOS imports are not supported in this version. These features were added in a later release of the original project.
Newer KP variants, including some files created with WinOLS 5, may be incompatible.
Before using the converted and restored definitions for real-world tasks, it is recommended to verify them.
