Automatic coding, manual coding and restoring from file (UDS CAN TP units)

Use these when a control unit is not coded or the coding is wrong (there is usually a DTC flagging it). The software works out the unit's default coding from the vehicle configuration and writes it. They are only available for units that communicate over UDS CAN TP.

Procedure

1. Connect to the control unit you want to code and open the coding section.
2. For automatic coding select "Automatic coding" and press "Next": the software reads the vehicle configuration and works out the unit's default coding (internet connection required).
3. If the calculation succeeds you reach the confirmation page: press "Next" to carry out the coding or "Exit" to quit without writing.
4. If the configuration cannot be read from the vehicle, select "Manual coding" and press "Next": the software walks you through selecting the vehicle configuration options, then works out the default coding (internet required here too).
5. Here as well the last page asks for confirmation: "Next" carries out the coding, "Exit" cancels.
6. After "Automatic coding" or "Manual coding" you can use "Coding - Settings" to put the customer's specific settings back.
7. Every time you run "Automatic coding" or "Manual coding", the coding present before the operation is saved to a file in the log folder: the file name contains the VIN, the unit name, and the creation date and time.
8. If the coding result isn't correct, select "Automatic coding from file" and press "Next": the software reads the vehicle configuration and downloads the unit's coding information (internet required).
9. Select the previously saved file, press "Next", then "Next" on the confirmation page to write the previous coding back into the unit ("Exit" to cancel).
