[[I am copying this post from the one I made on MBworld as well, I figure both forums should see it, especially considering MrScott belongs to this one!]]This post assumes you have some knowledge of the software used. I’m not entirely comfortable making a full walk-through for beginners, as this is potentially risky.
After spending quite some time tinkering with and learning aboutDAS/Xentry/Vediamo, I believe I’ve almost completely solved my issues with throttle lag on my car. Since owning the car I’ve noticed that depending on how the car is driven, like through heavy traffic or on country roads, the throttle response tothegas pedaldoes not seem to stay consistent. For example, if I start off driving the car in stop and go traffic, the pedal seems to become "lazyâ€; next time I mash on the gas, there’s a very noticeable delay in throttle input and sometimes the car doesn’t shift down when it should, either in C or S mode. It was quite annoying, and on a few occasions, kind of risky. Aside from that there’d be a very noticeable difference in the way the car performed on a day to day basis, sometimes it felt sluggish, and other times it felt pretty quick. I really didn’t like how it was unpredictable.
This is discussed in athreads like this, and it appears that ECU adaptations are the cause for this. I’m sure the adaptations would be effective in some cases, but where I live and how I drive, the adaptation process seems to have a difficult time calibrating the throttle response, and the result has been pretty undesirable to me. It seems others have the same issue, and have tried solving it doing the simple TCU reset. This reset does work, very temporarily. Every time I tried it, it’d help for a few drives but then it’d revert to sluggishness. I went over 10,000km after pulling thecar batteryand doing the TCU reset to see if the car needed a long time to "learnâ€, and it did improve, but the inconsistency/unpredictability of the throttle input, and delay, still remained an issue.
I’m very glad to have spent the money getting a diagnostic multiplexer, as it’s allowed me to learn quite a lot about how these cars operate. On top of that, I’ve done a bunch of tweaking to get things to how I’d like. If you have access to one, or know someone who does, the following tweaks have solved these problems for me. This could likely be accomplished inXentryrather thanVediamo, but I was unable to get access to the necessary settings throughXentrymyself. I Please note, I have no idea the effect this will have on warranty, as my car is completely out of any warranty..
MrScott52, a very helpful member of Benzworld posted a youtube guide on how to enable a few parameters to increase responsiveness of a diesel variant in an earlier version of DAS; these tweaks seem to make a difference with my 2.5L V6 M272 w204 as well. (I’ll link the video in a following reply.)
Attached below are the necessary parameter changes for the ME 9.7 ECU in Vediamo, which solved my issues with throttle delay (many listed in MrScott52’s video), and here are the descriptions of each:
#1 (Lastschlagdaempfung)This is the most important one. This parameter seems to be the main culprit for the inconsistent feeling throttle response and sluggishness, and I believe it causes the wonkythrottle bodyadaptations which I find so awful. Disabling it has removed most, if not all delay in throttle input. It is referred to as "load-reversal damping†inVediamo(german), but it is the "Throttle Change Damping†parameter inXentry. I changed this parameter about a month after the others, and it definitely had the most significant impact on throttle response, and now the throttle is very consistent in performance. I believe this parameter is more directly related to the actualthrottle bodythan thegas pedal, unlike the next parameter.
#2 (Pedalkennlinie) This is the pedal curve parameter. My car had KLD4 as default. You can play with this, and possibly leave it at KLD4. However, I changed it toKLD2. From what I understand,KLD2is meant for cars with a manual transmission, and as such, I’d expect the pedal curve to be the most "natural†feeling to the driver. In contrast, I believe KLD4 is more responsive, but "jumpier†(more erratic in terms of throttle input). Combining KLD4 with disabling the throttle change damping parametermaybe undesirable in terms of comfort/consistency.
#3(Momentenbegrenzung) This is the torque limit parameter. The main effect I’ve observed from disabling this is that the car doesn’t reduce throttle/torque as much while cornering anymore, and the car seems to accelerate slightly faster from a standstill than before. May not be necessary to fix throttle delay, but I find it favourable.
#4(Momentenerhoehung Getriebe) This parameter is supplementary to#3.Like MrScott describes in his video, it allows the engine ECU to monitor torque output and send it to the transmission, but keeps it within safe/comfortable limits. I find this parameter to improve gear shifts very slightly; torque input and acceleration remains very steady throughout gear shifts. I believe it very slightly improves acceleration, even compared to only having the torque limiter disabled.Do not change this to the GSG setting.Doing so resulted in some very uncomfortable shifting. I’m not sure if there’d be a long term effect on the gearbox here, so just don’t as a precaution. The option highlighted in black is the default setting – the ECU is not allowed to increase torque to the gearbox depending on measurement.
With all these parameters changed, I have my car performing the way I’d like it to. It’s performance remains far more consistent, there’ssignificantlyless throttle lag, and it does actually accelerate faster (I’ve measured), but only very slightly. Starting off in C mode on an incline also no longer feels like as much of a strain. Now, all of this being said, if you have the tools and such to do this yourself, or know someone who can,you do so at your own risk. I’ve driven over 10,000km already without any negative effects of this, but I just don’t want to be responsible if anything goes wrong. I can’t imagine anything would, though. If you are willing to do this yourself, please be aware thatthere are many ecu parameters that are difficult to understand, and modifying them at all could potentially cause irreversible damage.I do not recommend making adjustments to any other unknown parameters without thoroughly researching their function and/or purpose.
p.s the screenshots were taken in simulation mode, I didn’t think to screenshot anything while I was actually connected to my car. The highlighted values are still of course relevant.

2017 Xentry Connect C5 user manual: how to configure/set up SDconnect C5 to use for the first time
Please have your XENTRY ConnectMAC addresses (Wi-fi and LAN) enabled for the workshop networkbyyourIT supervisor/IT service provider in advance. You can read off theMAC addresses (Wi-fi and LAN) from the stickers on the devices.
Your case already contains a printed empty network questionnaire.
Please have it filled out by your IT supervisor. Important! Donotcontinuethe initial startup until the questionnaire has been filledoutcompletely! This will help to avoid additional work.
The latest Mercedes diagnostic software 09.2017diskcame with your Xentry Connect C5.
You can start the network configuration now.
Completely charge and turn on the XENTRY Connect.
Starting the XENTRY Connect for the first time can take up to 10 minutes.
Configuration can be started whilst both devices are still charging.
Attention! Be sure to use the correct power supply units!
Start the XENTRY Control software using the desktop link on the laptop. ConfigAssist is
Note! If you work with static IP addresses, you must performtheconfigurationvia the expert dialog and transfer the configurationtotheXENTRY Connect via a USB stick.
Please have the filled out network questionnaire on hand:
How would you like to configure the devices?
Select one of the 3 options.
Recommended selection: "New without existing configuration dataâ€.
Please continue following the ConfigAssist dialogs and enter the required
data from the network questionnaire.
Next, switch on the XENTRY Connect. This has already finished installing.
In the final steps, the configuration is transferred from the laptop to the XENTRY Connect. You will be prompted tointerconnectthedevices using the supplied black Ethernet connectingcable.
This cable connection is required only for configuration
Ifconfigurationis successful, a green tile with the number of the XENTRYConnect C5willbedisplayed. You can now use the devices: RemovetheblackEthernet connecting cable to work via WLAN and with anonlineconnection. Then click on the green tile in order to read out thedataforordering the StartKey.

First
Fakembstar c5 is another SDconnect c4 with a different look only
fake C5 adopts the same design in appearance as the genuine from French ACTIA Company
See the fake board from c5 mux, completely same as sdconnecc5
To buy a fake c5 is to have a c4 in hand.
But now, you have luck with a
Genuine Xentry Connect C5
1:1 clone of the original
This 1:1 clone of the original is the newest star diagnosis system in the year 2017.
Same as the one produced by French ACTIA Company, can test Engine /
New & Update:
1 This C5 is the real version withHQ PCB like the original, not the

6.Weight: 1.9KG
7.Network connection: WLAN : IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n2.4+5GHZ
The way to connect: support wireless connection via 1000M workshop switches, also
The management software can be installed on any computer with Windows 7 - 32-bit or Windows 8 - 32-bit and serves only for communication with the multiplexer
The licensing system is reworked - now licenses are stored on MB servers - Any license changes are tracked by the multiplexer when connected to the Internet network.
Why you should
After 2015, all Star Diagnosis equipment is no longer supported. First of all, this means that there is no update of the diagnostic data for the newest cars and their systems, as well as the lack of the possibility of coding and programming of electronic units due to the backlog of the software data level in the device, from data in the electronic control units of the car.
Already at the end of 2014, at most dealerships, almost all of the previously used Star Diagnosis Compact4 with SDConnect DoIP multiplexers were almost completely removed. Instead, dealers received Xentry Kit kits, which include the latest Xentry Connect multiplexers and Xentry Tab tablets from Panasonic. Tablets are custom-made, although they also have a "civilian" version - the Panasonic Toughbook CF-D1, somewhat inferior in terms of battery life to the original Xentry
Honestly, the need to use the Xentry Tab on non-dealer services seems somewhat exaggerated to me. With dealers everything is clear - they were forced to use this equipment.
What about original Xentry connect c5 price?
Undoubtedly, the original c5 with Panasonic tablet from the ACTIA Company is excellent ... But ... Its price is disheartening. The cost of the Japanese tablet is realistic to buy pieces of eight new laptops or tablets from other manufacturers.
So , recommend buying an original Xentry connect and 1:1 clone:http://www.mbstartool.com/wholesale/mb-sd-
After all, in
Thus, with this equipment, you do not lag behind the progress. You use in your work the best that is available today. Each your client, seeing with his own eyes that you in your work use the same device that he saw at the dealer's service station, will understand that he made the right decision entrusting his car to your specialists.

Topic:How to configure SD connect C4 LAN & WiFi to solve DAS fault (1.1)-1.501.9500.
Tool:aclone SD Connect C4
Software:2011/3 Xentry
Status:I’ve started up SDNC to see if the connection is okay, and it turns green when I connect the multiplexer via LAN, but when I try the wifi it stays red. It can also read out some data from the multiplexer so I am assuming thethe multiplexeris working fine too
Error:If I connect it to a car, DAS keeps popping up the (1.1)-1.501.9500 error (as I understand that must be some kind of communication problem). The car’s wiring is fine as KTS 520 can communicate with it.

Seetheceasertest post results
SDConnect toolkit says that my mux is available, but when I click on the button in the middle I get an error message, with an error code 750. That button is supposed to be for searching for multiplexers. This kind of gives me the impression that something isn’t quite working right :S
In the toolkit admin, it displays a serial number, says the mux is available. See in the attachments.
Solution:
It’s working!!! (At least it’s working via LAN, have not tried WLAN yet.)
I can’t believe it :O
Changedvalue in cal.ini to PART_W (to be exact, didn’t need to change it, it was PART_W, just left it that way
).
As for the rest of the instructions, I haven’t been able to follow them exactly. I also got a vid with instructions and it’s a little bit different (I’ll post it here if anyone needs though). Forexamplethe LAN IP address is 172.29.127.112, but it seems to be working that way.AlsoI haven’t been able to configure the "roadWLANâ€,because it doesn’t matter what I enter into the "key†field, it keeps saying that the key cannot be divided by 2 and therefore it is not hexadecimal
Hope this isn’t going to hinder my chances of using WLAN…
But I’m going to find out in a few anyway.
EDIT: Also tried with LAN IP: 172.29.127.119, it doesn’t make a difference. SDConnect works with both IP-s.
Damn….I clicked on the "Delivery condition†button in the SDconnect toolkit, and now I cannot turn on the WLAN on SDconnect. I think it wrote something into the MUX’s software :S
The LAN connection still works though, so the MUX is not blocked yet luckily….
