1.3 SDT-II FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS


1. PC-type high performance diagnostic tester

The display of PC can show more detailed information on the screen at once since it has a wider display than handheld-type

diagnostic testers.

It is possible to handle large volumes of data by using the high processing capability of a PC.

2. Automatic vehicle identification and automatic DTC reading from all systems

Automatic vehicle identification and automatic DTC reading at the beginning of a diagnostic session removes the possibility

of a technician forgetting to check DTCs.

3. Diagnostic Report

Presenting a diagnostic results report to the customer will help to increase CS and profitability.

4. Easy to manage diagnostic records

All diagnostic data (ie: DTC and data monitor) will be recorded with VIN (Vehicle Identification Number). It makes it

easy to manage diagnostic history data.

5. Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi)

Wireless communication between VCI and PC via an access point is supported.

☞ The VCI is shipped without software (firmware) programmed inside. Before the VCI can be used, the

first configuration step is writing software to the VCI via the PC. This section provides the procedure. It

should be noted that the software is for VCI setup (it is not diagnostic software).

If you are using a notebook PC, connect the AC adapter to the PC so power does not to drop due to

low battery while programming.

Before writing software to the VCI, exit all the applications on your PC.

Before writing software to the VCI, remove USB devices other than the keyboard and mouse from the

PC.

A warning will be shown to not disconnect the USB cable in the middle of a procedure. This

instruction must be followed. Disconnecting the USB cable or turning off the PC while programming

the VCI can damage the VCI.

If writing software to the VCI fails, follow the instructions in "Chapter 2.4: “Recovery”.
