This is also very good to know to simplify the software problem! Since INPA is simple to install.INPA is an easy, safe method to verify that you're in business for any of the BMW software.
#BMW LAPTOP INPA DOWNLOAD UPDATE#
If it fails on an update for whatever reason, you may have to buy a new module.ĮasyDIS and Progman are tedious to install but user friendly little chance of converting your car into a 2 ton paperweight.Īs the adage goes: you pays your money & you takes your choice. BTW, WinKFP is used to update programming in the modules. As in the car won't run until I figure out what went wrong & can I fix it. NCS Expert and WinKFP have little documentation and can f*ck things up if you make a mistake. INPA, NCS Expert and WinKFP are easy to install. One of my prior posts lists capablilities.įor your door locking, either NCS Expert (+NCS for Dummies) or EasyDIS or Progman. I'm still a little confused whether we should install the 'factory' software (i.e., I NPA/EDIABAS, NCS, NCSExpert, NSC for Dummys, NFS, Toolset32, WinKFP, etc.) or the dealer software (i.e., DIS, DISplus, EasyDIS, SSS/Progman, CIP, OPS, OPSis, ISIS, ISTA, etc.). I 'was' wondering why the cable is often called an "INPA cable". But why worry about them? EDIABAS/INPA works for out E39s There are lots of other protocols in use. The diagnostic heads handle lots of other stuff that we poor-DIYers don't have, such as oscilloscope probes.Īlso, your list above is not comprehensive. I see now that the cables are the poor-DIYer's diagnostic head. I wasn't aware of this (I thought the 'cables' were the diagnostic heads). What I do know is that EDIABAS understands it and will work with E39s. I don't know for sure which protocol BMW uses. pin 7: K-line (K-line idles high, with a 510 ohm resistor to Vbatt).Chrysler, European, & Asian vehicles (including BMW E39).These are apparently the "K-Line" protocols our E39's use: CAN and D-CAN also work through OBD ports.Īgain, this is ( all too slowly) starting to make some sense. K-line is an indirect label for several protocols that are used through OBD ports. ALDL => ADS => OBD1 => OBD1.5 => OBD2 => K-line => CAN => D-CAN => MOST => BYTEFLIGHT.ISTA/D and ISTA/P is the new, current, dealer level software. I think ISIS is the BMW software control system - automatic updates.

OPS and OPPS are newer diagnostic heads, not software versions There might be a transition in standards of something like:
