 Each Reflash Mode will now be explained.

ECM Reflash

Normal Reflash

Select this for normal situations.  The current ECM Part Number is read from the connected ECM and it is possible to program (reflash) with the automatically searched latest compatible part number.

Engine Replacement Mode (Downward Compatible Mode)

This is used when returning to an older type of part number for an accompanying hardware change.  Please be sure to check the information from the machine manufacturer.

 

In Engine Replacement Mode, it is possible to create an ECM with an old ECM Part Number specification.  This mode is primarily used when replacing the engine in order to reprogram the new ECM specification into an older specification requirement so that the correct ECM specification can be used on the machine.
