Progman Introduction: Progman
The new prog ramming man agement tool utilizes a new operating system (Windows XP Embedded) to manage the programming processes that can be initiated via the SSS.
Progman utilizes Windows XP Embedded which will serve as the basis for all further programs required for programming applications. No changes can be made to the operating system of this Windows variant and it can be used only in connection with the corresponding hardware (Software Service Station).
Progman incorporates all Coding, Individualization & Programming functions that were previously part of the DIS CD for E31/32/34/36/38/39/46/52 & E53, which operates under the old SGC/UNIX application, into the CIP application.
Since CIP is incorporated into Progman, it will now contain all Coding, Individualization & Programming functions. CIP will be used to launch the SGC/UNIX application for the older vehicles as well as launch the Windows XP based application for Coding and Programming the newer vehicles.
In the future the E36/38/39/46/52/53 applications will be converted/integrated directly into CIP and be based on Windows XP Embedded. The structure for the E31/32/34 will not be changed and will remain SGC/UNIX based.
