How to flash using a DoIP hardware

  This is an Article showing just how simple it is to flash in DTS Monaco , over DoIP (Diagnostic over Internet Protocol). These newer units can ONLY be flashed over DoIP. Trying to flash them via CAN, will very likely brick your control unit, so that should not be attempted, under any circumstances! A DoIP hardware is required to flash these newer units. Such a hardware can be an SDConnect C4 DoIP , ECOM or VCX SE .
