How to enable Coding Programming in ISTA-D for ICOM A2

Here, i wanna share my solution on how to enable coding or programming in BMW ICOM A2 software ISTA/D.



I add the following to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\BMW\ISPI\TRIC\ISTA\TesterGUI\bin\Release\ISTAGUI.exe.config

<!-- Enable Programming -->
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.Enabled" value="true" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.ExpertMode" value="false" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.UseAIF" value="true" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.SCHNELLE_BAUDRATE" value="false" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.TESTER_ID" value="0" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.TEST_CHECKSUMME" value="false" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.U_PROG_FLAG" value="false" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.WITH_MOSTFIREWALL" value="false" />
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.FORCE_PROG_PROGRAM" value="false" />

<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.CoapiErrorLogPath" value="..\..\..\Logs" />
<!-- not sure about that, not tested !!!! -->
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.CoapiBase.CoapiSearchPath" value="%ISPIDATA%\BMW\ISPI\data\TRIC\ISTA-P\BMW\Services\data\ecudata" /> <!-- not sure about that, not tested !!!! -->

<!-- temp solution, to be checked and tested !!!!-->
<add key="BMW.Rheingold.Programming.PsdzBackupDataPath" value="%ISPIDATA%\BMW\ISPI\logs\TRIC\ISTA\" />



Then everything works just fine. ISTA-D can do programming successfully. (but you setup at your own risk)
