Can 2012 Di2 do syncro shifting?
I have a 2012 S5 with the ultegra Di2 system with external battery.
Few questions.
How can I find out what model Di2 my bike has?
Can this Di2 system be updated to synco shifting via E-tube using the SM-PCE1?
Can this Di2 system be updated to the BT-DN110 internal battery and avoid buying the SM-PCE1?
Thanks!

The Shimano Di2 E-Tube compatibility chart is here:

If not using the BT-DN1100 battery that's the first thing needed, as Synchro software resides on that battery unit. Generally you do not need the SM-PC1 as you can do component updates via the cable supplied with the 110 battery, connected to a PC based E-Tube software.
