Software Downloading

Software is downloaded to the Closing velocity module (CVM) using the software manager in VIDA (Volvo scan tool).

Re-downloading 

The software product re-downloading is used when a control module has been replaced. In order to obtain software that corresponds with the replaced control module the vehicle data is read when placing the order.

Diagnostic services are run after downloading when necessary.

Upgrading 

Software product upgrading is used to upgrade the software in the control module when there has been a complaint and there is a solution available to correct the issue.

VIDA does not read the vehicle data on ordering as no hardware is to be replaced during an upgrade.

If the latest software is already installed in the control module, the software package is not put together, the user receives the message that the control module already contains the latest software.
