2. ECS-DC3 CUSTOMER PARAMETERS

2.1 INTRODUCTION

Customer parameters
Customer parameters are the settings of an 

electronic system. The customer parameters 

permit adapting control functions of a system to 

the customer's particular wishes and/or needs 

within certain limits. The customer parameters 

are stored in a list in the memory of the electronic 

unit. Customer parameters can be modified using 

the programming feature of DAVIE XD. 

Programming using DAVIE XD is only possible if 

the logged-in user has been registered as a 

"Master Technician".

Note:

Erroneous settings of customer parameters may 

affect the action of control functions to such an 

extent that they function eratically or not at all. 

After modification of the settings the (modified) 

customer parameters must be stored in the 

electronic unit using the programming function in 

the customer parameter overview.

Customer parameter names and codes
Each customer parameter in a system has its 

own name and code. The following explanation of 

the customer parameters includes only the 

codes. The availability of a customer parameter 

in a system depends on the programmed 

software in the electronic unit. The programmed 

software depends on the vehicle configuration/

identity card data.

Standard values
Standard values, options and setting ranges may 

vary according to the software variants of 

DAVIE XD and the system. This is why they have 

not been included in the following explanation of 

the customer parameters.
