Section 1011 (Coding And Programming - Overview): Progman: Administration: Settings: FASTA
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 333 other vehicles, including the 2007 BMW Z4, 2007 BMW X5, 2007 BMW X3, 2007 BMW M6, and 2007 BMW M5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The FASTA function assures that vehicle operation and service data from the diagnostic and programming devices are sent to BMW. With Progman if data is available it is transmitted automatically every five minutes
This function shows if any data is available for transfer and when it will be sent.
By selecting "Send data" (manual send) make sure that no sessions are currently running on the SSS as this will lengthen the data transmission process.
It is preferred that the automatic transfer process be utilized.
NOTE:
In order for FAST data transmission to be possible the correct BMW server address must be entered in the "Online Service" menu.
