How to VO Code auto Lane Change Assistant (SWA) - simple walkthrough
This guide is specifically focused on VO Coding auto Lane Change Assistant, but will work for any VO Coding.
Note: the FA will not be saved to the car, which mitigates some risk of dealer warranty issues. The trade off is that the process will need to be repeated after each i-step upgrade that modifies HU_MGU, SAS and/or BDC. Pre-reqs - Windows PC - I use Windows 10 x64 VM on macOS VMware Fusion - OBD-II to Ethernet cable - E-Sys 3.27.1 or later - I use 3.36.2 - psdzdata - currently at 03/2021.57. You need a version that supports at least the same or newer than your car's i-step version. Coding Steps for auto Lane Change Assistant (SWA)
Enjoy! If you find the lane changes are slower than you would like, almost hesitant, then there is a fix for that, but it requires FDL coding and is not covered here. Last edited by ifr; 06-24-2021 at 08:56 AM.. |

Thanks for this. When I get to the SALAPA-Element it's empty?

Oh! And I didn't get any options after clicking on the drop-down to select I-step. So I continued without selecting an I-step. I was able to code a bunch of stuff without any issues. As for the DHCP, I am running a Windows VM on MacOS, so I set static IP on MacOS and I placed the VM in bridged mode. Hopefully this helps others. |

How did you connect to the car without selecting a target connector? You have to select the connector for your target vehicle type e.g. S18A, and then the i-step that most closely matches the car's i-step. Can you post screenshots of your connection to the car without connecting to the car? unless you are completely misinterpreting it? |

I'm on 3.27.1. I had the same problem as the last poster and I had to activate FA and that fixed the issue. I think for first time programming that may be required but I could be wrong (I'm completely new to this and this was my first time coding.)
I do not have any of those I-step version showing in mine — weirdly. I gave up after trying multiple times and simply connected using "Connection via VIN" without selecting I-step and it did not complain. See what mine looks like (in the pic below.) I don't have it hooked to the car now because the car is in the shop. I don't use any launcher just E-sys. What I'm I missing? Where can I find target selector? I VO coded anti-dazzle and got 0 errors after coding all 4 ECUs. So in my case, it would appear target selector was not needed. But then again I'm new to this. Thanks. |

That display is a new one on me. Personally I'd scrub your install and psdzdata folder, and start again with esys 3.36 and latest psdzdata (supports up to 03/2021.567). If you want to stick with 3.27 then at least make sure the options are set correctly for psdzdata and data folder, and replace the psdzdata folder as something is not correct. |

RE: "at least make sure the options are set correctly for psdzdata and data folder." What options are you referring to? See my directory setting: |

I wouldn't code with that environment, but your call. Seems to have worked for you somehow. Looks like you also have the display bug. Google for fixes for that.
esys 3.36.2 has options for psdzdata specifically, but in your case you'd need to make sure that your folder structure is c:\data\psdzdata\* (no nesting of psdzdata) and that your folder is not corrupted. I cant advise on anything else as you dont have the same setup as me. |

I went ahead and changed DPI scaling settings and everything is now being rendered correctly. Very interesting how I was able to code this without setting the target selector previously. If the software really cares about it; I would have expected an error to be thrown while coding the ECU modules. Anyhow, with the display settings now "fixed" I do see the target selector option and all the other misaligned tabs/menu options are now showing properly.

I'm guessing you connected as an F01. As long as you didn't get any errors when coding, like 'ethernet ecu' connect errors, then you should be good. Probably worst case it just wouldn't have coded at all. Last edited by ifr; 06-28-2021 at 01:48 AM.. |

Can this be coded on any G05 or do you need specific hardware to be able to have this feature?

As far as I know it has all options including the driving assistance pro.
