Long coding allows you to change parameters pre-set within the modules, but not enabled. For example you can change the configuration of modules from US specification to EU and vice versa, you can enable lap timer on the instrument cluster, change the start-up animation in the dashboard and many other configurations which your customers may require.

Long coding essentially changes the byte string but it also allows you to see the values in plain text and select the needed changes via a drop down menu. Once you are satisfied with the desired configuration you can press the “Write” button and the Abrites diagnostics for VAG will apply the changes you want to the module.
