XENTRY Update Service and Retail Data Storage
XENTRY Update Service Introduction and Operating Concept
The XENTRY Update Service provides your workshop online with ECU software and flash software as well as release updates for diagnostic systems. Release updates and ECU software of the old “Regio DVD” and “Digital Operator’s Manuals” are provided online and centrally by the Mercedes Benz AG. There are two options available:
XENTRY Update Service with Retail Data Storage device (recommended)
XENTRY Update Service without Retail Data Storage device
Due to constantly growing data volumes as a result of further developments in control units for future vehicle model series, the storage requirements for retail data storage are increasing continuously. Therefore, fast download time and redistribution are essential.
The new Retail Data Storage 2 has a powerful 18-terabyte hard drive. Thanks to the two times higher data transfer speed compared to the predecessor model, the growing data volumes can be handled without any problems.

Less effort for your updates
Ensure regular updates for all your XENTRY diagnostic devices with the XENTRY Update Service. Depending on the configuration, new release updates and add-ons are automatically downloaded from the Internet to your Retail Data Storage (network storage) within 48 hours of publication and immediately distributed from there to your XENTRY diagnostic devices - without effort, fully automatically and with low downtimes of your diagnostic devices. Download and installation of release updates are carried out in the background – you reduce the time required for update to about five minutes per device and thus increase the efficiency in your workshop.
Work even more efficient in your workshop
You can define the download times of the XENTRY Update Service individually so that updates and software are only downloaded at night outside of workshop operation, for example. This reduces waiting times when using the diagnostic systems.
If you use several diagnostic systems, the same software and updates do not have to be downloaded several times from each diagnostic system individually, but only once to the Retail Data Storage, which then supplies the various networked diagnostic systems.
XENTRY Update Service without Retail Data Storage
The XENTRY Update Service can also be used without Retail Data Storage, but it has some disadvantages:
Multiple download of data required, as each diagnostic device must download it separately
High download volume from the Internet
Longer waiting times in workshop operation, depending on download duration
We therefore only recommend the "XENTRY Update Service without Retail Data Storage" variant if you use 1-2 diagnostic systems per operation and use them only irregularly.
