involves first copying the flash file to the StarMOBILE(R) device which DOES require a network connection. Once the file has been
copied to the StarMOBILE(R) device, it can be used in a Stand-alone mode to flash the ECU WITHOUT a network connection.
NOTE: StarMOBILE(R) does not need to be connected to a vehicle when retrieving a flash file for Stand-alone Mode.
1. Power on the StarMOBILE(R). Launch the StarMOBILE(R) Desktop Client and connect to the tool.
2. At the Home screen, select "ECU View"
a. Select "PCM/ECM"
b. Select "More Options"
c. Select "ECU Flash"
d. Select "Browse for New File" and follow the on screen instructions.

screen.
