# Protocol Priorities

This section details the working priorities within a Configuration Structure regarding CCP and Diagnostic protocols. If either of these protocols is present in the structure by itself, there are no priorities. However, if both protocols are present, then in a single configuration, the priority needs to be considered by users.

In both CCP and Diagnostic protocols running, the CCP protocol has the priority, as shown below:

* When the logger is powered up, it will first attempt to communicate via CCP to establish the connection.
* Once the CCP/XCP connection has been established, the module will communicate via the Diagnostic protocol.
* If no CCP connection can be established, the logger will not communicate via the Diagnostic protocol.

This means that the CCP module is the master and has priority. Therefore, users must establish this connection if a structure is configured with a CCP protocol.

This priority is established to stop any unwanted waking of modules by Diagnostic polling. Diagnostic polling will be possible only when the vehicle is awake, allowing CCP/XCP communication.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.influxtechnology.com/support_guides/dialog-user-guide/appendix-1/protocol-priorities.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
