Question Lynx diagnostics bleeding procedure

I have the BritPart Lynx diagnostics system.

I tried using the system to bleed the brakes but I am befuddled by the brake bleeding functionality that comes with the Lynx system. When the bleeding procedure begins it starts the ABS module for each wheel in succession. Left front, right front, left rear, right rear and each cycling of the wheel bleeding take no more than a second or two for each wheel, hardly enough time to open the bleed nipple bleed the brakes then close the nipple.

Am I missing something here? It would take five guys to bleed brakes using this software. one guy on each wheel and one guy operating the software.

Without seeing the Lynx procedure it's hard to comment but the norm is 10 seconds per wheel so it maybe a misprint. Look at the earlier post on here about bleeding brakes with TC and ABS and it gives the Nanocom, RAVE and WABCO procedures altogether. I would tend to clarify with Lynx or failing that extrapolate the timeline from the other procedures.

Unfortunately there is no documentation from BritPart on their procedures. 10 seconds per wheel, how is a person suppose to bleed each wheel this way?
Do you have a link to the post on here about bleeding brakes with TC and ABS?

for the delphi system it tells you to open up the bleeder, then engage the system, and after 8-10 seconds it shuts off but i close the bleeder before. hope that helps.

There are dozens of threads as you can see Land Rover Forums - Land Rover Enthusiast Forum - Search Results but you will need to trawl through them to find the one with the correct info.
