Forward Sensing Module (FSM)

Downloading software and replacing the control module

It is possible to download new software to the Forward Sensing Module (FSM).
From structure week 201020 it is also possible to download software separately to the Forward Looking Radar (FLR).
From structure week 201020 only the Forward Looking Radar (FLR)needs to be calibrated when only the radar has been replaced or only software for the Forward Looking Radar (FLR) has been downloaded.
When ordering software the vehicle's hardware and software are compared with Volvo's central database. If the comparison is correct the software is downloaded to the control module.
If the comparison between the car and Volvo's central database does not correspond, then the database is updated with the vehicle's configuration. When this is complete the software is downloaded.
For more information on downloading, see: Design and Function - Downloading Software.
