Turn off high beam assist

Well mine works like the AI overview of the Google
Saying that it uses the lane assist camera to image the on coming traffic headlight. No lane assist camera and you haven't got it. The other cameras aren't HD that one is. Also reads the traffic signs if you have TSR.
To activate it you have the lights switched to auto, click headlight on main beam then wait for it too digitally image other drivers lights when it will dip.
The lane assist camera looks like a feed horn aperture. Image to follow. Bit like the blinkers of a horse so it only sees in front. The inspection you do when looking to see whether a car has lane assist. No lane assist and you won't have that ability. Step number one. These will have been sold as a range of safety features and bundled with the model spec now. It's possible you have the camera but they choose not to give you high beam assist. Where the build codes come in to determine what the car has in it.

Apart from the A it's the build codes that are definitive. No aperture camera and you ain't got it. Aperture camera as above it's possible. Build codes will / should tell you. Why I say a real motoring enthusiast pays the 8 Euros of air time on Erwin and downloads the build codes, the manuals and the SSPs of interest. 8G1 on my builds.

That alone was a big mistake. The app using OBD11 does not record what is changed where. Now a change will probably have happened somewhere that you will never know about. And the high beam assistant could have been easily deactivated via the radio.
I do warn people not to use the micro payment apps since if they aren't tested well they can cause more harm than good. Really like Excel macros create a chain of commands and when Excel macros go wrong it's never a good idea. The micro payment option was put in to compete with other dongle products but the Pro license does give you coding like VCDS. So it's one dongle with two uses, micro payment or coding. To make matters worse on the micropayment apps you can buy the super duper product and email your macros in. With poor QA, kids could be writing them.
Which doesn't fill you with confidence. £50 or whatever it is gives you piece of mind, I've got the Pro license since I bought it before they put it on an annual charge.
I have 400 points since I've never used the micropayment apps so in the old model you got points when you used it. I detest macros so if I can't see what it's doing it pretty dangerous to run micropayment apps. Easy enough to program with Obdeleven Pro.
Only really screen toggles and passing long strings. Distributed control systems. I remember our computer science lecturer getting very excited about distributed control system and this thing called "parallel processing" ?. Was the 70s. Happy to roll up my sleeves with a tablet and a dongle feels like programming a PDP7 in the small computer room. No punch tape or a teletype 43. Minor in computer science more interesting than a minor in physics. Major in maths. Computer science was fun. We were front runners the first year they taught computer science in the school of applied sciences. Cutting edge stuff ?. It hasn't really changed much (the underlying knowledge), theory from applied. Putting theory into practice. Only seven of us that year.
The car system is a distributed control system and the devices in our hands have many core parallel processesors in them - the hardware didnt do parallel processing then, a concept. Happy to go back to basics than run some unknown bit of code via macros that you have to take on faith that might mess your car up.

I could not be bothered to do that. Let possibly poor QA controlled micro payment apps run a riot on the cars programming.
The dealer did a software upgrade to my Kessy recently. It stopped the auto mirror turning in, however the suppressed mirror screen was still there - the one that got liberated. Had to do the mirror in mod again. Dates to the first use of Kessy on Seat's where they though that hanging around for three seconds on the button was the way to go to get the mirrors in. They subsequently fell inline with the rest of the Vag group after two year. Circa 2019 or so. 2017 had the Seat way.
That's the first time a dealer update reset my mods... but only half reset the mod. Wasn't totally happy, easy enough to fix by doing the mod again.
