Procedures that write, program or authenticate

What protects each write to the vehicle and what is not available yet.

Important: Everything that writes is in beta, only on enrolled own units, and has not yet been tested on real vehicles. Always compare with the manufacturer's information.

TypeWhat it does and what it asks of you
ReadReads values, faults and identification. Changes nothing.
Writing a valueReads the value, keeps a copy, writes, reads it back and restores the previous one by itself if something fails. You see “Changed values” with before and after.
Routines and resetsAsk you to confirm, the second factor, the vehicle stopped and a press of the unit's button.
Security accessThe key is calculated by a contracted provider. Without a provider you see that it is not available.
ProgrammingOnly from the web, with the passkey, the approval of two people other than you and the customer's consent.
Control unit authentication (UDS 0x29)Not available yet: it is a draft waiting for tests and a provider.

1. Before programming

  1. Connect a battery charger and do not remove it until it finishes.
  2. Leave the vehicle stopped, with the engine off. Do not disconnect the unit or switch the ignition off.
  3. Tick “I have read the notice and the vehicle is ready”, press “Prepare the programming” and, with the approvals, “Program now”.
  4. Press the unit's button when asked. If the control unit is not the expected one, nothing is touched.
  • The unit requires at least 12.5 V on 12 V vehicles and 25 V on 24 V ones.
  • If it is interrupted, “Resume programming” appears, which again needs the two approvals.
  • “Emergency stop” halts the operation: type the word you are asked for and the reason.
  • The vehicle identification, the airbag and pyrotechnics are never written. Immobilizer and keys are excluded.

Tip: The unit checks the button and that the vehicle is stopped on its own: confirming on screen is not enough.
