PT4G testers can only be updated from the current software level.
PT4G testers cannot be backdated or targeted for a specific older software level.
If a software restore is to be performed, the tester will install the most current software release available.
When a new update is installed, only the objects that have been added/changed are installed to save time during the update
process.
Online update, Fazit, PPN access and VAL data transfer
The “Online Update”, “Fazit Access”, “PPN Access” and “VAL Data Return” functions can only be run if the network settings and any proxy
settings that are used were set correctly and if a valid PT4G device certificate was created successfully for the Porsche Tester 4 being
