01 Introduction
The introduction of new and updated driver assistance systems (e.g. Active Brake Assist, Moving Off Information System, Active Lane Keeping Assist, etc.) requires a commissioning process for all Model Year 2025 and newer cab chassis vehicles intended to be sold in the US and Canadian markets. The commissioning of these systems is carried out by an authorized upfitter or Mercedes-Benz dealership after completion of the upfit. This guide outlines the commissioning process for all variants of the models below:
- 3500XD Cab Chassis - 4500 Cab Chassis
as of Model Year 2025
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Cab Chassis
As the vehicle's final upfitted condition (e.g. width of the body, overhang dimension, and the position of the sensors) cannot be known at the time of manufacture, not all control units can be configured at the factory. As part of the commissioning process, the vehicle data card and control units must be updated by an authorized upfitter or Mercedes-Benz dealership to reflect the actual state of the vehicle, in accordance with the upfitter's final body. The message "Commissioning by body manufacturer incomplete" is displayed in the instrument cluster until this process is completed and confirmed.

To ensure the control units are configured correctly and that individual electrical and electronic systems function as intended, three key steps must be carried out by an authorized upfitter or Mercedes-Benz dealership during commissioning.
1. Determine O-codes based on upfit dimensions and special equipment on the van systems. 2. Update vehicle data card with the respective O-code (via XENTRY kit, XENTRY pass-through or at an authorized Mercedes-
Benz dealership). 3. Determine systems / control modules that require commissioning. 4. Perform commissioning steps required for every vehicle in the prescribed order (via XENTRY kit, XENTRY pass-through or at
an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership). 5. Perform commissioning steps depending on vehicle options (DISTRONIC, Reverse camera etc.) in the prescribed order (via
XENTRY kit, XENTRY pass-through or at an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership). 6. Confirm commissioning to remove message from instrument cluster. ! NOTE ! It is the upfitter's responsibility to ensure that the modified vehicle is fully completed and commissioned. In addition, the upfitter commits to complying with and fully implementing the Mercedes-Benz Body and Equipment Guideline (BEG) specifications. As a prerequisite for an upfitter's commitment to commission the vehicles in accordance with the foregoing, the upfitter must have access to a Mercedes-Benz diagnosis tool XENTRY Diagnosis Kit as well as to a special Calibration Aid for the Multifunction Camera. Alternatively, an upfitter can contact an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership for the operational implementation of the control unit commissioning based on the information provided by the upfitter. As a prerequisite for the dealer carrying this out, the upfitter must complete the Vehicle Commissioning Request form found in section 4 and hand it over to the dealer. The dealer will commission the control units for which this service has been requested based on the information provided by the upfitter.

02 Determining O-codes and systems that need commissioning

Step 1: Identify O-codes and update vehicle data card
O-codes need to be updated in the vehicle's `data card' to alert the vehicle of the specific control units that will need to be commissioned/adapted, based on the specific upfit being performed. It is essential that these are updated into the vehicle data card to ensure the appropriate commissioning of the specific control units. This can be done via XENTRY kit, XENTRY pass-through or at an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealership ­ see images in the next page.

Please refer to the tables below to identify the relevant O-codes for the vehicle (there may be multiple O-codes needed per vehicle). Note that upfitters need to convert measurements to metric measurements to identify the appropriate O-code:

O-code for the body width

O94

Width of bodybuilder manufacturer body outer edge 2150mm +/- 50mm

O95

Width of bodybuilder manufacturer body outer edge 2250mm +/- 50mm

O96

Width of bodybuilder manufacturer body outer edge 2350mm +/- 50mm

O9K

Width of bodybuilder manufacturer body outer edge 2450mm +/- 50mm

O-code for the vehicle overhang

O97

Rear overhang of bodybuilder manufacturer body 1700mm +/- 100mm

O98

Rear overhang of bodybuilder manufacturer body 1900mm +/- 100mm

O99

Rear overhang of bodybuilder manufacturer body 2100mm +/- 100mm

OA1

Rear overhang of bodybuilder manufacturer body 2300mm +/- 100mm

OA2

Rear overhang of bodybuilder manufacturer body 2500mm +/- 100mm

Note: At time of publication O-codes O9K & O8O are not available via Xentry and requires creation of an XSS ticket to request adding them to the vehicle data card. This should be resolved in the coming month.

! NOTE !
Complete and accurate reporting of the vehicle specifications via O-codes forms the basis for correct commissioning. It is the upfitter's responsibility to ensure that reporting is accurate.

Step 2: Identifying systems and modules requiring commissioning
Once O-codes have been reported to the vehicle data card, SCN coding of the corresponding control units is the next part of the commissioning process. During the SCN coding of a control unit, the diagnostic system checks all documented vehicle features (codes) in the vehicle data card and sets the documented parameters from the Mercedes-Benz documentation system based on vehicle codes. For some control units, additional supplementary tests, calibrations, or verifications may be necessary ­ observe the instructions in Xentry as well as notes besides each step below carefully. The commissioning scope and the number of control units depends on the equipment scope of the vehicle. The following diagrams illustrates the procedures for commissioning the required control units. There are two process flows: one that needs to be done on every vehicle and the second depends on the options/systems included in the vehicle (check vehicle Monroney label, spec sheet or invoice to identify these). A final quick test must be performed at the end of the commissioning process. This test should not result in any errors. Once completed, the implementation of the commissioning process must be confirmed in XENTRY ­ see section 3.

NOTE: Once the SCN coding has been carried out, the camera must be calibrated. A calibration aid is required for this purpose, which must be positioned relative to the vehicle as per the specifications in
XENTRY.

Depending on vehicle
equipment further control unit commissioning is required ­ see
Step 4 on next page

NOTE: If GPS antennas from third-party manufacturers are installed by the upfitter or the ex-factory-
installed GPS antenna is offset, the reception of the GPS signal must be ensured. Ensure "SOS NOT READY" is not on the MBUX screen/instrument cluster.

Step 4: Control unit commissioning depending on vehicle systems ordered
If vehicle is equipped with Blind Spot Assist, Reverse Camera, LED headlamps and/or PSM, one or more modules will need to be commissioned (check vehicle Monroney label, spec sheet or invoice to identify these):
