How To Install BMW Rheingold ISTA Software

Preparing vehicle programming and finishing off

The basic requirement for efficient programming is that the vehicle is correctly prepared.

Preparations:

1.Park vehicle on flat and even ground

2.Wherever possible, protect vehicle from direct sunlight

3.Turn off engine

4.Shift manual transmission to Neutral or automatic transmission to Park.

5.Activate electromechanical parking brake or apply parking brake

6.Make sure that the temperature of the transmission fluid is between -40 °C (-40 °F) and 85 °C (185 °F)

7.Switch off all electric loads, lights and turn signal lamps

8.Switch off wiper/washer system. The wipers may be actuated during programming and initialization. Make sure that the wipers can move freely

9.Make a note of all stored radio and TV frequencies as well as the navigation destinations

10.Connect up a BMW Group-approved battery charger in the engine compartment.

The battery charger connected during programming must be run in “external power supply mode with battery connected”. Please refer to the operating instructions for the battery charger

11.Do not connect or disconnect the battery charger during programming. Low system voltage may cause programming to cancel. Make sure that the vehicle system voltage does not drop below 13.0 volts while programming is in progress

12.Set up connection between workshop network, vehicle interface and vehicle

13.Check cable routing. Cables routed through open windows could be damaged when the windows are started automatically. Do not route cables through open windows

14.Switch on ignition (terminal 15)

− On vehicles with Comfort Access, the identification transmitter must be inserted in the ignition lock. The coding procedure may be terminated if the identification transmitter is not inserted in the ignition lock.

− If the vehicle model does not have an ignition lock, the identification transmitter must be located in the vehicle interior.

− On vehicles with automatic terminal 15 shutdown (as from 03/2007) the signal from the door contact switches off terminal 15 by opening and closing the driver’s door. Terminal 15 is permanently switched on by pressing the START-STOP button. Make sure that the driver’s door contact is not operated during the programming procedure.

15.Perform a vehicle test with the ISTA workshop system to make sure that all installed control modules respond and any fault memory entries are read out

16.Before programming, rectify any faults that may be present and delete any fault codes stored

17.Determine CBS data, note down and end ISTA workshop system

18.Preparations: Remove inserted data media (DVD) and disconnect connected data (iPod®, etc.). Data media in a drive or still connected could cause programming to abort

19.Before starting vehicle programming, make sure the boot lid is closed (to prevent the luggage compartment lighting from overheating).

During programming:

1.Observe and follow requests and instructions in ISTA/P

2.Leave ignition switched on and follow instructions in ISTA/P (e.g. CAS)

3.Do not cut the connection between workshop network, vehicle interface and vehicle

4.Close the boot lid again after any action in the luggage compartment (e.g. loading/removing navigation DVD) to prevent the luggage compartment lighting from overheating

5.During programming, perform no other activities on/in the vehicle than those instructed by ISTA/P.

Finishing off:

1.Execute procedure for finishing off the measures plan and confirm by clicking “OK”

If an ICOM is connected to the MOST direct access port, disconnect the MOST direct access port when requested to do so by the ISTA/P system, remove the ICOM from the MOST ring and close the MOST ring with the original flash plug (bridge) in the vehicle. Fault codes may be entered and MOST control modules may be registered incorrectly if the ICOM is not correctly disconnected from the MOST direct access port.

Perform the finishing off procedures such as calibration, initialization, service functions etc. in the vehicle test in the ISTA workshop system as defined in the final report. Confirm the finishing off jobs individually.

Enter the time and date information to ensure correct calculation of the CBS values in the vehicle.

After programming, reinstall all removed or disconnected data media (DVD, iPod®, etc.) and check.

Compare the previously printed or noted CBS data of the control modules and,if necessary, reset and correct as part of the vehicle test in the ISTA workshop system.

Perform vehicle test with the ISTA workshop system and end vehicle test on completion.

Park vehicle for at least 5 minutes (BN2000 and BN2020 vehicles) or 16 minutes (I-bus vehicle) with terminal R OFF so that all control modules can assume sleep mode, i.e. assume the rest state.

Note: control modules that do not assume sleep mode (rest state) can cause closed-circuit current faults!

Make sure that the vehicle is OK.

Check all noted radio and TV frequencies as well as navigation destinations and store manually if necessary.

Starting an ISTA/P session

1– ISTA/P button

2– Callback Assistant button

3– Workshop System Management (WSM) button

Start ISTA/P from the ISSS jumpgate by selecting “Programming, Coding, Individualization”.

A maximum of three vehicles or one model series F01/F02 vehicle can be programmed and encoded with ISTA/P on an ISSS.

Note:

The basic requirement for efficient programming is that the vehicle is correctly prepared. When programming and coding, refer to the part “Preparing vehicle programming and finishing off“.

Callback Assistant

The Callback function in the workshop system management of the ISIS is to be used if problems relating to the infrastructure of the IT system occur (e.g. ICOM connection not possible) in the applications or during programming. The Callback function is a userprompted callback form. You will find a detailed description with instructions in the WSM User Guide.
