How do you Set and Save ride height using INPA

Friends

Using INPA I need to reset the ride heights on my twin axle air suspension.

How do I lock each height setting to the dash switch = <Access> <Normal> <Offroad>

To explain. I can raise and lower the front rear to the desired height(s) for each position using inpa. What I need to be able to do is set the height for <Access> then save it so that when I press Access on the dash switch the car will return to my saved height. I then need to repeat this for <Normal> then <Off Road>

I'm not sure you can, INPA is for diagnosis and testing. You might need to look into coding or another bmw software.

It's been a few years since I was having problems with my wife's 2-axle EHC system on her '05 3.0, but IIRC there is no way to code different ride heights for each suspension level setting. Using INPA, you can put the system in calibration mode and enter measurements in mm from the wheel rim bottom to the fender lip. This will calibrate the height sensor at each corner of the car. You could put in an erroneous measurement (i.e. add 25mm to each corner to lower the car an inch uniformly), but that will affect all 3 height settings.

I've also played around with winkfp and ncsexpert a bit and have never seen any individualisation of the suspension height settings. That's not to say they're not in there because I never specifically looked to do that, but if they are they'd be in one of those tools and not INPA.
