Wireless Communication

The Bluetooth Diagnostic Interface supports Bluetooth communication. It can

transmit vehicle data to the MaxiSys Display Tablet without a physical

connection. The working range of the transmitter through Bluetooth

communication is about 755 feet (about 230 m). A signal lost due to moving

out of range automatically restores itself when the display unit is brought

closer to the VCI unit.

For detailed information about VCI connection with the MaxiSys display tablet,

please refer to the MaxiSys User Manual.

USB Connectivity

The VCI device also provides a direct connection to the MaxiSys display tablet

or a PC via a USB 2.0 full-speed connection. All of the electronics are

contained in the device shell, making it a compact and rugged vehicle

communication tool.

Power Source

The Bluetooth Diagnostic Interface operates on 12-volt vehicle power, which it

receives through the vehicle data connection port. The unit powers on

whenever it is connected to an OBD II/EOBD compliant data link connector

(DLC).

It can also be powered through connection with a PC via the USB cable, so

there

’s no need to connect the device to the vehicle when performing firmware

update through the PC.
