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 . DoIP brings signifficant advantage versus CAN, by that it is much faster (eg. flashing times take a few minutes, instead of several hours, telematics disks are not needed anymore, etc etc). Once you own the equipment, it will need to be correctly set up. There are online guides available, that show how to set up these devices. Following is the DTS Monaco guide on how to flash using a DoIP hardware! First, we’ll need to select the relevant SMR-D file, of the control unit, which we’ll be interacting with. Once interfacing with the control unit, before flash...
