have a look at http://www.medeso.se/software/caepipe.html and perhaps http://www.engineeringtalk.com/news/ben/ben100.html although this looks less likely to be useful.
How do you go about getting the software client approved?
I think the extra cost of rerating using a new code will frighten the client, although in Norway, you never know do you?

I agree (for whatever that's worth). If it was just a new unit where you could use the European codes in isolation and then match up with the old at the battery limits, that might be different.
