The following instructions describe the procedure for offline SCN coding. The SCN coding data are requested by fax from the Star Diagnosis User Help Desk.
For the offline fallback process, Daimler AG reserves the right to charge a flat rate per request.
Requirements for offline SCN coding:
- A diagnostic system with a printer
- A fax machine or a email address
The offline SCN coding is divided into two steps:
- Complete the fax form with the vehicle data to order the SCN coding data.
- Perform the SCN coding. The User Help Desk Star Diagnosis creates the SCN coding data.
- Determine the vehicle data for the offline SCN coding
- Select the control unit in XENTRY Diagnostics.
- Select offline SCN coding.
Control unit adjustments or installation → SCN coding → offline (no networked Star diagnostic device)
- Confirm the note about the SCN coding process.
- Fill out the fax form completely and print it out.
If an email address is provided in the fax form, the SCN coding data will be delivered by email. If a fax number is provided in the fax form, the SCN coding data will be delivered by fax.
