The Diagnostics operations require connecting the MaxiSys MS908S Diagnostic Pro

Platform to the test vehicle through the VCI device using the main cable and test

adapters (for non-OBD II vehicles). To establish proper vehicle communication to the

tablet, you need to perform the following steps:

1. Connect the VCI device to the vehicle’s DLC for both communication and power

source.

2. Connect the VCI device to the tablet via BT pairing, or USB connection.

3. When the above steps are completed, check the VCI navigation button at the

bottom bar on the screen, if a green check displays at the lower right corner, the

MaxiSys MS908S Diagnostic Platform is ready to start vehicle diagnosis.Pro

Vehicle Connection

The method used to connect the VCI device to a vehicl s DLC depends on the e’

vehicle s conguration as follows: ’

⚫ A vehicle equipped with an On board Diagnostics Two (OBD II) management -

system supplies both communication and 12 volt power through a standardized -

J 1962 DLC.-

⚫ A vehicle not equipped with an OBD II management system supplies

communication through a DLC connection, and in some cases supplies 12 volt -

power through the cigarette lighter receptacle or a connection to the vehicle

battery.

OBD II Vehicle Connection

This type of connection only requires the main cable without any additional adapter.

➢ To connect to an OBD II vehicle

1. Connect the main cable’s female adapter to the Vehicle Data Connector on the

VCI device, and tighten the captive screws.

2. -Connect the cable’s 16 pin male adapter to the vehicle’s DLC, which is

generally located under the vehicle dash.

NOTE

The vehicle s DLC is not always located under the dash; refer to the user manual of the ’

test vehicle for additional connection information.

Non-OBD II Vehicle Connection

This type of connection requires both the main cable and a required OBD I adapter for

the specic vehicle being serviced.

There are three possible conditions for Non-OBD II vehicle connection:

⚫ DLC connection supplies both communication and power.

⚫ DLC connection supplies communication and power is to be supplied via the

cigarette lighter connection.

⚫ DLC connection supplies communication and power is to be supplied via

connection to the vehicle battery.

➢ To connect to a Non OBD II Vehicle-

1. Connect the main cable’s female adapter to the Vehicle Data Connector on the

VCI device, and tighten the captive screws.

2. -Locate the required OBD I adapter and connect its 16 pin jack to the main

cable’s male adapter.

3. Connect the attached OBD I adapter to the vehicle’s DLC.

NOTE

Some adapters may have more than one adapter or may have test leads instead of an

adapter. Whatever the case, make the proper connection to the vehicle s DLC as ’

required.

➢ To connect the cigarette lighter

1. Plug the DC power connector of the cigarette lighter into the DC power supply

input port on the device.

2. Connect the male connector of the cigarette lighter into the vehicle’ cigarette s

lighter receptacle.

➢ To connect the clipper cable

1. Connect the tubular plug of the clipper cable to the male connector of the

cigarette lighter.

Figure 4 1 -Connection between Cigarette Lighter and Clipper Cable

2. Plug the DC power connector of the cigarette lighter into the DC power supply

3. Connect the clipper cable to the vehicle’s battery.

NOTE

After the VCI device is successfully connected to the vehicle, the Power LED on the

device illuminates, and a brief beep sound will be heard.

VCI Connection

After the VCI device is properly connected to the vehicle, the Power LED on the VCI

device illuminates solid green light, and is ready to establish communication with the

tablet.

The J2534 ECU Programming Device, which comes with the MaxiSys MS908S Pro tool

kit, supports 2 communication methods with the tablet: BT, and USB.

Pairing Up via BT

Among all methods, BT pairing is recommended as the rst choice for the

communication between the 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 tablet separately to each of the VCI devices connected to the dierent 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 eciency.

➢ To pair up the tablet with the VCI device via BT

1. If not already done, power up the tablet.

2. Select the application from the MaxiSys Job Menu.VCI Manager

3. When the application is opened, the device automatically starts VCI Manager

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 may cause signal interference. When

done, tap the button at the top right corner to start searching again. Scan

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 pairing 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 tablet is

connected to the VCI device, and is ready to perform vehicle diagnosis.

Refer to on page for additional information.

BT Pairing 82

USB Cable Connection

The USB cable connection is a simple and quick way to establish communication

between the tablet and the VCI device. After properly connecting the USB cable from

the tablet to the VCI device, the VCI navigation button at the bottom bar of the screen

shows a green tick icon in a few seconds, and the USB LED on the VCI device

illuminates solid green light, indicating the connection between the devices is

successful.

The MaxiSys diagnostic platform is now ready to perform vehicle diagnosis.

NOTE

Since the USB connection provides the most stable and fastest communication, it is

highly recommended to apply this communication method when operating ECU

programming or coding. When all the two communication methods are applied at the

same time, the MaxiSys system will use the USB communication as the default priority.

No Communication Message

A. If the tablet is not connected to the VCI device, an “Error” message displays. An

“Error” message indicates the tablet is not communicating with the VCI device, and

so cannot gain access to the vehicle control module. In this case, you need to do

the following check ups:-

⚫ Check if the VCI device is powered on.

⚫ In case of wireless connection, check if the network is configured correctly, or

if the right device has been paired.

⚫ If during the diagnosis process, communication is suddenly interrupted due to

the loss of signal, check if there are any objects that causes signal

interruption.

⚫ Check if the VCI device is properly positioned. It is recommended to put the

VCI device with the front side up.

⚫ Try standing closer to the VCI device to obtain more stable signals, and faster

communication speed. In case of wired connection, check the cable

connection between the tablet and the VCI device.

⚫ Check if the green LED on the VCI device is illuminated for BT or USB.

⚫ Check if the Error LED on the VCI device is on, this may indicate there is a

communication error between the devices, in this case try re establishing the -

connection again; if this does not work, there may be a hardware problem with

the device, in this case contact for technical support.

B. If the VCI device is unable to establish a communication link, a prompt message

displays with check instructions. The following conditions are the possible causes

for this massage to display:

⚫ The VCI device is unable to establish a communication link with the vehicle.

⚫ You’ve selected a system for testing that the vehicle is not equipped with.

⚫ There is a loose connection.

⚫ There is a blown vehicle fuse.

⚫ There is a wiring fault on the vehicle, or the data cable or adapter.

⚫ There is a circuit fault in the data cable or adapter.

⚫ Incorrect vehicle identification was entered.
