Variocam actuation via PIWIS

Hello, new to Porsche and PIWIS but plenty of experience with other vehicles. Thanks in advance for the help here.

 

2000 Boxter S. Car runs fine as far as I know, not troubleshooting anything, it's just new to me and I'm going through all the baseline health checks.

 

I have 2 questions-

1) Measuring the cam deviation doesn’t result in a number that changes if I rev in neutral. Just a static #. 1:-4.7⁰ 2: 1.2⁰.

Now, from what I figure, the # shouldn't change while revving unless you're seeing it go further out of original spec in front of your eyes. Correct? Or should it move?

I have an "offline" PIWIS 3 running on a virtual machine, with a Chinese link. Everything else works great- menus are a little slow, but functional otherwise.

 

2)I tried to actuate the variocam under active drive links. If I execute, the idle drops very momentarily and I get an error in the PIWIS field- Negative control unit response, "conditionnotcorrect or requestsequenceerror". Value 29000.

 

Am I setting it up improperly?

 

Thank you
