3.1 Driver Setup
In order for the Pass-Thru Device to operate correctly with the
re-flashing and diagnostic applications on the target PC, you will need
to first install the MaxiFlash Pro J2534 device driver onto the PC that
will control the device.
To setup the J2534 Pass-Thru device driver, you will need the
followings:
 CD with the device driver program
 PC or laptop with USB ports
 J2534 Pass-Thru reprogramming tool
 USB cable
NOTE: The following steps may vary depending on the operating
system or components that are installed on your computer, but in
general this is the standard installation process.
1) Insert the driver installation CD to your PC. The driver
installation wizard will load momentarily.
2) Click on ―Next‖ on the welcome page.
3) Select ―Next‖ on the installation location and installation name.
It is recommended not to change the default settings; otherwise
the computer may have a hard time recognizing the driver.
4) Click ―Install‖ and the driver program will be installed onto your
PC.
NOTE: During this part of the process a MS-DOS style window will
pop up and may remain on your screen for a short while, which is
perfectly normal. Do not attempt to close the MS-DOS style window
manually as this will prevent the device driver being installed
successfully, it will close automatically when the device driver
installation is complete.
