JPI Data Encryption?

I think that is the real jist of it. JPI doesn't like EG Trends. I
would be interested in really looking at the data coming out of the new
version and see how hard it would be to decode. I would be surprised if
they are actually using any encryption, probably just some simple bit
manipulation.

I just got an email back from JPI. They said that if I did upgrade my
firmware (I have the older CSV format) that they will provide the
program that reads and plots the data for free. They claim that they
aren't keeping data from anyone, that they give you the software to
read the data for free.

You get the source code for that program? If not, it's quite a
half-assed measure.

If you ever send the unit in for repair, they will update the software
regardless of your wishes. A communication was posted on the beech
list where a user asked tech support the question. He specifically
said that he did not want the software in HIS JPI updated and the
answer was, too bad, it's getting the upgrade no matter what you, the
owner, wants. I'd call them all scumbags, but I know they would hunt
me down and sue me to death if I did.

I love my JPI but I haven't updated my software in awhile. From what
I've read on this board, I don't think I will. I wonder if JPI has any
idea how many customers they're losing to this silly decision. If they
were 1/2 smart, they'd provide a free version of the software that just
let you pull the info off and let you put it in exel (which is what I
do today).
