4.1.2.1 Bluetooth Connection
Bluetooth pairing is recommended as the first choice for the communication between
the tablet and the MaxiVCI Mini. This is because the Bluetooth connection does not
need to repeat the plugging and unplugging procedure which is unavoidable when
using traditional wired connection, saving more time and providing higher efficiency.
The working range for Bluetooth communication is about 33 feet (about 10 m), enabling
remote vehicle diagnostics.
Refer to
VCI Bluetooth Pairing on page 69 for details.
4.1.2.2 Mini USB Cable Connection
Use the provided Mini USB cable to connect the tablet to the MaxiVCI Mini. An USB
cable badge will display at the bottom-right corner of the VCI Manager shortcut and the
Connection LED on MaxiVCI Mini will light solid green when the connection between
the devices is successful.

correctly, or if the right MaxiVCI Mini has been paired up with the tablet.
During the diagnosis process, if the communication is suddenly
interrupted due to the loss of signal, check if there is any object that
causes signal interruption.
Try standing closer to the MaxiVCI Mini to obtain more stable signals and
faster communication speed.
In the case of Mini USB cable connection, check the cable connection
between the tablet and the MaxiVCI Mini.
