The timeline of the Express development

and news

• 2025 April C4 Cable mass production setup is complete and ready for rollout.
  2025 April new adapters are in production for CMD, Galetto, Autotuner, DFOX, Flex, TR-KT (Trasdata, Ktag), Scanmatic (SM2, SM2-Pro, SM3), OBD2
• 2025 April new Hexprog2 and BF-AT (for bFlash and AMT-BST – adapters arrived with molded connectors, and Kess3 adapters available too.
• 2025 April Firmware v1.25b is now available for Express!
  This update includes improved menu handling, a flip screen feature (press and hold the button before powering on the device.
  Keep it pressed, and release it 2 seconds after plugging in the power). Added protection, and extended current measurement—especially useful when an ECU is swapped at the Express output without updating the configuration in the menu.
• 2025 April enhanced test environment for C3 Cable testing and programming.
• 2025 April C3 cable is available, check C3 Cable coverage and pricing here.
  2025 March webshop is extended by 350 ECU activation items, and vehicle / ECU brand specific pages added with more info on bench cables
• 2025 February new website and webshop
• 2025 January Flex adapter V2 prototype is ready. This V2 makes Flex UCP compatible, makes it possible to connect any of your existing bench cable to Flex. (Not only Express Cable).
• 2025 January The prototype of our Galetto adapter is ready. This one makes Galetto compatible with our Express Cable, and UCP. It is also suitable for DFOX and makes it UCP compatible (when using it with Benchbox V2).
• 2024 December We’ve introduced the Unified Cconnection Platform (UCP). From now with our adapters the top15 tuning-tools have the same ‘unified’ DB15 connector. So they are compatible with our Express Cable, and your existing bench-cables, pin-to-pin cables easily can be converted and used with all of your tools.
• 2024 December Autotuner adapter prototype is ready. Express V1 connects directly to Autotuner, but this adapter standardizes the connecting surfaces and make Autotuner UCP compatible and compatible with the extension cable.
• 2024 December Trasdata/Ktag adapter works perfectly with both tools, on CAN-LS, CAN-HS, Kline. (Without eGPT box and any additional cables. So you don’t need to change the ribbon cables, the ‘analog-port-cable’, eGPT-box. All are included in this small and smart adapter.

• 2024 February We splitted RMBC3 to the multiplexer box and cables to make it expandable to cover all of the possible ECUs. This is the point where Express box has born, and Cx cables too.
• 2024 February after countless testing RMBC3 is ready for mass production, but we have a problem. It is a limited design. Works very well on almost all 94-60 pin ECU, but there is no way to extend it to cover other ECUs, because of the whole electronic is fitted in the ECU connectors…
• 2023 November After successful tests a demonstration video recorded and shared with the main tuning tool developers like Alientech, CMD, Autotuner, Magic, Dimsport (later Dfox, Hexprog2, bFlash).

• 2023 July RMBC2 prototype ready, tested. (It has around 60 small pcb modules to cover 70 ECUs – the predecessor of the C1 cable), works perfectly, but has limited possibilities and needs time to store /  look up and change the PCB modules, so decided to design a full electronic version
• 2023 June Prototype is ready, tested, and a presentation done personally in Italy at Alientech
• 2023 May Plans and prototype of RMBC1 (first generation of Express Cable, that use changeable modules) are ready
• 2023 April We need a safe solution that can replace the timewasting and risky conventional pin-to-pin wiring method (wires, cables) in bench mode
