It provides the ability via a single selection within Techline Connect to first identify which modules need updating and then proceed to updating affected modules \(with some exceptions\). The updating of modules is completed in parallel instead of the technician needing to update one module at a time. This allows a more streamlined approach for dealers and customers.
