Progman Introduction: JETstream
JETstream is the application that provides online data updates for Coding and Programming data. The feature allows the SSS to be up to date on the current/new vehicle data regarding coding and programming information prior to the release of an update DVD. The application can be configured to automatically search for online updates at a specific time (ex. after normal shop hours every night) and install any updates found at a specific time/point in the systems operation cycle.
In order for this feature to work the SSS must:
- Be located on the workshop network
- Be connected to BMW via a network connection
- Have the correct network specific data entered in the "Network" mask
- Have the host/domain name and IP address of the BMW server entered in the "Online Service" mask
- Have the "Automatic Online Update" feature active
