Some Porsche tools have a menu for input signals, input signals are like actual values but are usually represented in text, for example “Open, Close, On, Off”. Input values are displayed as part of actual values. This is so input signals can be recorded on the same screens and logs as actual values. As sometimes it is useful to see input signals and actual values at the same time.
Tips:
Some tools referenced may be outside of Launch, but the functionality is similar.
Cannot reset the instrument cluster on 997, Cayman, Boxster (987)
Sometimes the instrument cluster does not accept the reset command. To clear the
instrument cluster remove the fuse for the instrument cluster after using the software to reset the reminder. Simply removing the fuse will not clear the service reminder; it will only reset the instrument cluster.
Cannot connect to 2005 – 2006 Cayenne
If the instrument cluster says “press brake pedal” this means the CAN network is asleep and you need to wake up the network by pressing the brake pedal.
The CAN gateway may need to be reset. If VAG-Com has been used on this car it is likely that the CAN gateway will need to be reset. To reset the CAN gateway take the key out of the ignition and remove fuse #40 for at least 10 seconds. The fuse panel is on the left side of the dashboard where the dashboard meets the door panel.
Receiving errors while running actual values
Start actual values with the car already running, do not start the car when actual values are currently running as this resets the interface and may cause application errors. 15 Select as few actual values as possible. Each actual value must be processed separately, so the more actual values that are selected, the slower each one will be updated. While the software is capable of capturing unlimited actual values, most laptop computers are not and will suffer from performance problems as more actual values are selected.
