New SMR-D Files 2024

[mbastucoding]

Is there a solution for SMR-D 2024 files? They don't work in DTS Monaco, 2023 files work but won't connect to 2024 vehicle.

I don't think you will have any problems with SMR files, but for coding new MB cars you will need the appropriate certificates to be able to do the coding.
"Star 3" cars: W206, W223, W297 etc., as well as some ECUs in older models, such as 213 MOPF (PARK213M) or W177 MOPF with IC177M.
And everything happens over a DOIP connection, so Openport is not needed.

In addition to the ZenZefi certificate, I have noticed that some SMR-D files in a Xentry 2024 installation appear corrupted when used in DTS Monaco (9.02 or 8.26). For example, PARKMAN213 was 2.4 MB in earlier versions, but is now only 1.4 MB. If you import a 2024 file into Monaco, it shows up as corrupted and Monaco refuses to open the project.

Ah, I thought I was the only one, I had to use multiple sources when coding. I think you're right, not sure if it's related to the Xentry AddOn update, but I've seen a few corrupted SMR-Ds.

Interestingly, Xentry works fine on these ECUs, so I assume they deliberately modified the files so they no longer work with Monaco but work in Xentry.

Since the 2024 files work in Xentry and only seem "corrupt" in DTS Monaco, and the 2023 files work fine in both Xentry and DTS Monaco, will there be any issues using the 2023 files when writing them back to the ECU?
Still trying to figure out how this works.

If the variant is newer than the one in the SMR-D file, you can't do anything, since SMR-Ds from 2024 onwards are "corrupted" in DTS Monaco.

If you update the module to software version 2024+ and the diagnostic version changes, you will not be able to perform diagnostics or variant coding using SMR-D 2023 or earlier.

The one in DTS9_Projects_v3_03.2024 is 2.7MB but it was marked as corrupt. I downloaded the one that is 2.4MB and still got the same error as corrupt. This happened when I tried to run a quick test on a W206. It complained about HVAC223, I was able to replace it with another one and then the error popped up on PARKMAN223. I will continue to check the SMR-D files that are not marked as corrupt.

You can look at the CSV file in the Xentry installation, there you will find the variant coverage. Easy!
