NOTE
The programming function applies only when the vehicle is connected with a VCMI or
J2534 programming device, which serves as a PassThru interface to establish
communication with and transfer data to the vehicles ECU.
Available programming or coding operations vary by test vehicle. Only the available
operations display in the tablet menu.
There are two general types of programming operations:
A. Coding also known as Teach-in Program, or Component Adaptation, is used to
reprogram adaptive data for vehicle control modules after repairs or replacements
of vehicle parts.
B. Reprogramming Operations downloads the latest version of software from the
online server database through Internet access (this procedure is done
automatically when the tablet is connected to the Internet, so there is no need to
check for software updates yourself), and reprograms the newest version into the
vehicles ECU.
NOTE
Ensure that the tablet is connected to a stable internet access before applying the ECU
programming function, so that the tablet is able to obtain access to the vehicle
manufacturers server for update service.
Selecting the Programming or Coding function opens a menu of operation options that
varies by vehicle make and model. Selecting a menu option either displays a
programming interface or opens another menu of additional choices. Follow all screen
instructions while performing the programming or coding operations. How and what
information is presented on the screen vary by the type of operation being performed.
