Revision 1: Siemens MS45
Identification and scope
The MS4X reference distinguishes MS45.0 and MS45.1. It separates the external flash image from the calibration area and describes checksums and signatures.
Reference topics
Follow the cited family reference for the full memory layout and map descriptions. Record the software identifier with each definition; include units, axes and operating conditions when expanding a map entry.
Sources
Curated reference notes. Applicability follows the cited sources; hardware testing by this wiki is not implied.
Revision 2: Siemens MS45
Choose the variant
Use MS45.0 or MS45.1 for sensor and definition details. Common MS45 material remains here and in the two family guides below.
Image sizes and address ranges
MS4X lists a 1024 kB external-flash image. Its overview calls the parameter area approximately 128 kB, while giving 0x40000–0x5CF7F and a padded end of 0x5CFFF. The Definition Files page lists 116 kB partials. MS4X reference; MS4X reference.
Calculated inclusively, those ranges contain 118,656 bytes (115.875 KiB) and 118,784 bytes (116 KiB), respectively. They do not describe a complete 128 KiB slice. Keep the tool’s actual byte count, headers/padding and address origin in the file record; use the format expected by the selected definition and writer.
Integrity and authenticity
The source distinguishes a main CRC32, an additional monitoring checksum and RSA validation for OBD programming. Correcting a CRC alone does not supply a valid signature. MS4X reference.
For the selected software and write method, record how each required check is handled. Use current primary tool documentation for compatibility; the older overview’s list of products is historical context rather than a verified current support matrix.
Calibration guides
Keep software-specific addresses and conversions with their definition. Document an observed result with the exact MS45.0 or MS45.1 variant rather than assigning a universal value to MS45.
