Need a little help, I think. I figured out how to transfer the tune.
This is a little different than the PV-3 which allows you to transfer files directly from Windows.
I can not for the life of me figure out how to transfer a .lic file to the PV2. Nor can i figure out how to transfer my license from my PV-3 non touch screen (not the PV3) to the PV2. Supposedly it's possible.
My screen when attached to Windows shows: PC Link Mode Active. But I can not access it using Windows Explorer. Should I be able to? No touch screen either.
You have to use PV software or C3 in PowerCore. As far as transferring licensing, may want to ask Dynojet direct.I know you can apply a solo purchased license, but IDK if you can pull/transfer an original PV3 license to someone elses PV2?

The .LIC file you mention is a license file for the PV3's, not the original PV. The .LIC file will not work with the PV. Login to your Dynojet.com account, go to MY ACCOUNT > TUNE LICENSES. Click DOWNLOAD LICENSES under the purchase credits button. There you should see your license(s). On the right side, find the PV-HD link to download the .TXT file version of the license for that bike. Once you have that on your computer, connect the PV, wait for it to show PC LINK MODE ACTIVE, then launch the WinPV software. Click APPLY LICENSE and find that TXT file. That will apply the license to that PV for the bike.
I'll do that. From what I've read you can transfer the license the PV tuners.
Other than that, everything works thanks to the link that you posted.
Not sure where you got that but that very unlikely.
You can update it you can use it for basic functions without a license but not for tuning. I have 2 PV2 on the table next to me now.

His post above noted that he followed my instructions and it worked. While his original thoughts were not correct (you can't transfer a license from one to another), he can download the correct one for either device, from his account.
