Have used2016 Ista P version 3.58 to do some programming on F10 but always got the error message:

”an error occurred on execution of the measure.

94201 technical service initialisation failed

-2 global unknown

63014 (castor) - error when executing a psdz function

63014 (castor) - error when executing a psdz function”

Ediabas 7.3.0 is installed correctly and patched. There is no problem with other cars like E series.

Windows Firewall is disabled and there is no other security software on that laptop.
ISTA/P works OK with other cars, so presume configuration is OK.

Reset a batteryon the vehicle. It is said that if F series sometimes gives this error, disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes usually solves the problem...but not worked for me also.

I installed the BMW software myself and I am not any expert on the matter, so it is possible I have copied some files into wrong directories.  I have two main folder on C: drive Rheingold with ISTA Diagnosis which works well. My SQliteDBs and PSdZ folders are in there. ISTA P is installed in a separate folder on C: drive . There is no PSdz subfolder in ISTA P.Then i copied data to the following directory:%:ISTA-PBMWServicesdataecudata...not worked too

Finally, i guessed it was related to the faulty ICOM A1. So i connected the different BMW Icom A2 emulator from a Chinese vendor: diyobd2.fr, the problem has gone ....
