996 tune Durametric

Checking cam angles in Durametric shows nothing for Bank 2.
Someone commented in a post that it wouldn't show anything if a 996 tune was used. Should I tell the Durametric it's a 996 or does that make no difference?
And what is the reason it doesn't register Bank 2?

Car's with RoW tunes, 986 or 996, will not show the second bank.

As JFP says, it has nothing to do with a 996. You probably have an ROW tune. Sometimes people do that to get rid of pesky SAI codes or even O2 codes

I do have the ROW 996 tune. I was asking if I need to tell the program it's a 996 versus a 986.

I would try it. If you get no errors, everything should read out properly.
