I think so. I mean, I always hear people talking about Carly for registering the battery and I assume it does the coding, too, otherwise what's the point. Maybe a Carly user can chime in?

I was going to use Carly, but I felt like they were nickle-and-diming me. I bought the dongle for $78, and then was about to but the app ($45) when I realized that battery registration could only be enabled by an in-app purchase (+$10). So I just returned the dongle and used NCSExpert to do the coding, and registered the battery with Toolset32, both of which I already had.

If you haven't done any coding and don't have the software I just mentioned, Carly is probably a safer bet. I imagine it's probably more intuitive to use, too. But for me it was kind of superfluous.
