Introduction
Introduction
The Dension Gateway Enabler tool (GEN tool)
provides a quick and easy tool to help the
installation of a respective Dension Gateway
product for BMW vehicles with MOST system.
The proper functioning of the Gateway product
requires that certain protocols in the car radio are
enabled, which is not necessarily the case in all
BMW vehicles. Enabling these protocols normally
requires the car diagnostics tool of a BMW
specialised workshop.
The GEN tool provides only the specific
enabling/disabling diagnostics function without any
other capabilities, which makes it a small and
available device to help the installation/removal of
the Gateway product.
Important note
When using the GEN tool for enabling, it gets
linked to the specific Dension Gateway and the car
it is installed to. Therefore:
The Gateway has to be installed to the
system before using the GEN tool.
You cannot enable multiple cars with a single
GEN tool.
Keep the GEN tool with the owner of the
Gateway as it may be needed in the future
(e.g. when moving the Gateway to a different
vehicle).
If the Dension gateway functions without using the
GEN tool, please do not use the GEN tool.
The compatibility of the GEN tool may differ from
the compatibility of the Gateway product. Please
check the corresponding compatibility tables.
