Release notes for Scania Diagnos & Programmer 3, version 1.21
Version 1.21 replaces version 1.20 of the SDP3 program and supports the earlier
systems in P, G, R, T series and K, N series vehicles and Scania Engines.
Installation
Install SDP3 by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
In order to install the SDP3 program, Administrator authority is required.
Follow the instructions on the screen. On installation you will be prompted to insert the
VCI2 and USB key so the installation can check that the correct versions of drivers
and firmware (software in VCI2) are being used. When this is carried out for the first
time, the Windows hardware wizard starts. Work through the hardware wizard and
then continue with the installation. To continue, click Retry. SDP3 may require the
computer to be restarted after the first part of the installation. After restart, the
installation will continue automatically.

Known problems and shortcomings general
a) There have been instances where the user functions in the user function view in
SDP3 have the status "unknown" or are indicated by a figure. This is because
SDP3 has no information about the user function. This information will be
constantly updated in future versions of SDP3.
b) If there are inactive fault codes in any system, a warning message will be
displayed when you select "Conversion". The warning message tells you that
there are inactive fault codes in the vehicle.
c) In some cases, implausible values may be displayed, e.g. 102%. This means
that the sensor signal is incorrect or is missing. This applies to all control units
except OPC, where it means that kick-down is active.
d) In some cases, more circuits are displayed than are actually present on the
vehicle.
e) Certain parameters are presented differently in the Adjustment tab and the
Product information tab.
f) When you go into the Adjustment tab, not all the available adjustable
parameters can be seen. When Edit is pressed the program reads out the
vehicle and displays all parameters.
g) The Product information tab always shows both servers for OPC4 even if only
one is active.
h) The login to Scania to send in operational data has faulty error handling. If you
are not sure whether you have the correct authority/password, check that you
can log in on the SAIL portal.
i) If contact is lost with a VCI or USB key, SDP3 must be restarted.
Known problems and shortcomings software campaigns
a) Double dialogue boxes pop up if there are network problems.
b) If you have logged in once into Campaign or Maintenance and then after
closing the job try to communicate via the "tunnel" again, SDP3 will remain
hanging for a long time. The operational data/campaign will fail.
Known problems and shortcomings Scania Engines
a) Where the SOPS file is missing, neither groups nor user functions will be
displayed.
Known problems and shortcomings specific systems
Known problems and shortcomings in this version are presented below, by control
unit.
EMS Engine management system
If vehicle speed limiter 2 does not work on buses, the BCS control unit requires spare
parts programming.
