Open Tuning Files
Master:
Kess Master differs from Alientech Kess 3 Slave in one important way: it can read open files. Because of this, the data read from the vehicle by means of a master tool is not encrypted. As a result, the software can be edited by you. So if you wish, you can make a new tuning file for yourself. Or you can send it to any tuner anywhere on the planet for a new file.
Slave:
A slave tuning tool reads the original software from a vehicle, which is not accessible. These are locked and encrypted files. There is no access to the read software. In order to load a modified tuning file onto your vehicle, you need to send the file to your “master”, and they will be able to de-code the file for you. There can only be one master for each salve tool. It is this master who supplies the device with new software.
Alientech Upgrade to Master
Can a Slave Alientech Kess 3 tuning tool be upgrade to a master tool?
Yes, it is! You don’t necessarily have to keep your tool as a slave tool just because you bought it as a slave tool. Master status can be active by simply paying the difference between the Save and Master prices. In other words, the difference between the sale tool and master RRP. In order to upgrade the tool, the master must agree. However, not every master is open to this type of upgrade.
Alientech Move a Slave Kess 3
Can a Kess Slave tool move from one master to another?
You can, in theory, move your Alientech Kess 3 slave to another file provider if you are unhappy with your current file provider. The problem is… But there’s a catch! You have to get permission from your current file provider. The majority of Alientech sellers will not permit a tool to move if you ask. Because of this, you should discuss this question with anyone you are considering purchasing a Kess tuning tool from.
