Code roof to close or open at slow speed

Does anybody have actual working instructions on how to use ncs to do this. I believe it's possible and according to chatgpt it is but that thing has been telling lies of late.
 
It will close at very low speed (according to the owners manual). I believe changing the speed limit has been looked at in the past and its only possible to remove it totally and not to change it to a different speed. Too risky in my opinion.
 
I've successfully coded it on both my 2.5i and 3.0si, with massive thanks to some German members of zroadster forums for figuring it out a few years ago. NCS Expert/Dummy and a machine setup to run them is all I needed, then https://github.com/gobit0dic/CVM_IV has the important module files which allow the right bits to be twiddled to enable it.

Checking my maintenance log I've set both of mine to "wert_04", up to 36kph/22mph. Terrifying to do, but had no issues from memory and nothing else appears to have gone wrong with it since. Any of the good write-ups on here about how to use NCS Dummy/Expert apply, then figure out which file from the GitHub repo you need and copy it into place to then edit the setting and write the configuration back to the module.
 
Thanks very much. I will take a look. I have never used NCS and am a bit worried I will breake something. Cheers

Where are you located? Might be someone local who can do it for beer tokens.
 
Oooh, I gotta get me some of that. The default continental drift speed is infuriating. And being a tiny roof, unless there's an 'ell of an 'eadwind, modest speeds wouldn't bother it in the slightest.

South africa. Don't think so. This is begging for a packaged solution at around a 50 dollar price tag.

The hardware solutions are much more expensive. The one touch thing they offer is nice but not as useful as being to slow down and close the roof in case of sudden rain.
