Why is it when you do the Connect to the car, sometimes you use "F10" and sometimes you use "F20" for the vehicle target selector? It just weirds me out that something can go wrong if you pick the wrong one.

In this case (VO-coding), you use F10, but last night when i was reading out the entire SVT tree to back up all my ECU (cafd/.ncd) files, the TokenMaster video showed that you needed to use F20.

Anyone know why its F10 in some instances and F20 in others?
Because some people own 3-Series (F30) cars and others own 5-Series (F10) cars, and they have different ECU's, hence different Targets.
