Coding control unit options with "Coding - Settings" (Boxster 987 PAS example)

Use this to read a control unit's coding characteristics and change them one item at a time, for example the comfort functions or the central locking on the PAS (Porsche Access System) of a Boxster 987.

Procedure

1. From the main screen select the vehicle model and double-click the control unit you want to code to open the diagnostic session.
2. Open the coding function and choose "Coding - Settings": the window shows the unit's coding characteristics and lets you change them.
3. Select the option category. On the Boxster 987 (2005-2010) PAS example the categories are "Central locking system", "Comfort functions", "Key 1", "Key 2", "Key 3", "Key 4 to 6".
4. Once the category is selected, the list of options belonging to it appears below.
5. Click the item you want in the "Value" column: depending on the option you either pick from a list of possible values or type the value directly.
6. Press "Code" to write the change to the control unit. Only one item is changed at a time: for several options, repeat the select-value-"Code" sequence.
7. When you're done, read the coding back to confirm the values are as set and clear any DTCs generated during the session.
