Definition of Terms
The following are definitions of configuration terms
Module Reprogramming
Module reprogramming (also referred to as "flashing") is a scan tool process which updates the strategy/calibration in a module. Reprogramming a module with the same level of software does not improve module operation or repair a hardware failure. Module reprogramming is automatically carried out during PMI when a later strategy/calibration is available.
Note. Module reprogramming should be limited to circumstances where a published TSB procedure recommends doing so.
Note. A module cannot communicate with other modules on the communication network while being reprogrammed. Clear any network communication DTCs which may have been set in other modules during the reprogramming process.
Note. Some modules are reprogrammed in coordination with other modules. Follow the Integrated Diagnostic System (IDS) key cycling instructions carefully to avoid reprogramming errors, including failure of programming one or more of the coordinated modules.
Accessory Protocol Interface Module (APIM) Programming
APIM programming is a process that updates the APIM Consumer Interface Processor (CIP) and Vehicle Interface Processor (VIP) software. The VIP programming updates the calibration files in the portion of the APIM which interfaces with the Controller Area Network (CAN). The CIP programming updates calibration files in the portion of the APIM that interfaces with mobile phones and other customer devices.
APIM programming uses the VCM to read and program the VIP software through the Data Link Connector (DLC). A web-based On-Line Automotive Service Information System (OASIS) application is used to read and program the CIP software via a Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable between the scan tool and vehicle USB port. Both the VCM and OASIS application must be running on the scan tool during APIM programming. To carry out APIM programming, refer to ACCESSORY PROTOCOL INTERFACE MODULE (APIM) PROGRAMMING .
Programmable Parameters
Programmable parameters are customer preference items that may be modified by the dealer via scan tool or in some cases modified by the customer following a procedure listed in the Owner's Literature. While many configuration options may exist for a module, only a few of these options are programmable parameters.
Module Address
A unique module address is assigned to each module on the network for identification.
As-Built Data
As-Built data is a VIN -specific module configuration record. During vehicle build, the configuration from all modules is downloaded and stored in the As-Built database. As-Built data does not reflect customer preference items that have been changed from the default state. These items need to be changed using programmable parameters after the module is configured.
Note. It is not necessary to obtain As-Built data unless directed to do so by the scan tool. This data may be accessed from the technician service publication website.
