It is designed to connect wirelessly with the FCAR Display Tablet, as a vehicle communication interface (VCI) for vehicle data transmission. Thanks to the wireless BT technology, with which you are allowed to work freely around the vehicle. This interface device can communicate with vehicles’ electronic control units (ECUs), guaranteeing performance and speed that redefine multi-brand diagnostics. The development of this interface has been focused on reducing the communication time, and ensuring the tool is practical to use. The FCAR diagnostic platform combines the VCI device and the display tablet with technical information into ensuring quick and simple access to the vehicle to perform comprehensive diagnostics applications. Wireless Communication The Wireless Diagnostic Interface supports BT communication. It can transmit vehicle data to the FCAR Display Tablet without a physical connection. The working range of the transmitter through BT communication is about 300 feet (about 100 m). A signal lost due to moving out of range automatically restores itself when the display unit is brought closer to the VCI unit. For detailed information about VCI connection with the FCAR display tablet, please refer to the FCAR User Manual. USB Connectivity The VCI device also provides a direct connection to the FCAR display tablet or a PC via a USB 2.0 full-speed connection. All of the electronics are contained in the device shell, making it a compact and rugged vehicle communication tool. Power Source The Wireless Diagnostic Interface operates on 12-volt vehicle power, which it receives through the vehicle data connection port. The unit powers on whenever it is connected to an OBD II/EOBD compliant data link connector (DLC). Functional Description The Wireless Diagnostic Interface device package, which includes the unit, user manual, and a CD with driver program and update agent, comes along with the FCAR/FCAR Mini tool kit.
