communication between the MaxiCOM display tablet and the VCI device. The
working range for BT communication is about 210 feet (70 m); this means you
can perform vehicle diagnosis freely around the workshop with greater
convenience.
If you use more than one VCI device to connect to the test vehicles when
customers are many, you can perform vehicle diagnosis on various vehicles
conveniently, by pairing the MaxiCOM display tablet separately to each of the
VCI devices connected to the different test vehicles, via BT, without the need
to repeat the plugging and unplugging procedure, which is unavoidable through
traditional wired connection, thus saves you more time and provides more
efficiency.
To pair up the MaxiCOM display tablet with the VCI device via BT
1. If not already done, power up the MaxiCOM display tablet.
2. Select the VCI Manager application from the MaxiCOM Job Menu.
3. When the VCI Manager application is opened, the device
automatically starts scanning for available VCI devices around for
BT pairing. The found devices are listed in the Setting section on the
right side of the screen.
NOTE: If no VCI device is found, this may indicate that the signal strength of
the transmitter is too weak to be detected. In this case try to get closer to the
device, or reposition the VCI device, and remove all possible objects that
causes signal interference. When these are done, tap the Scan button at the
top right corner to start searching again.
4. Depending on the VCI type you use, the device name may display
as Maxi suffixed with a serial number. Select the required device for
pairing.
5. When paring is successfully done, the connection status displayed
to the right of the device name is shown as Paired.
6. Wait for a few seconds, and the VCI button on the system Navigation
bar at the bottom of the screen shall display a green tick icon,
indicating the display tablet is connected to the VCI device, and is
ready to perform vehicle diagnosis.
