Diagnostic connector (OBD) USB interface, Type B Three-colored LED (yellow/green/red) Figure 3-1 Interfaces and display 3.1 LED display • • • • • • • Green: The BlueVCI is connected to the diagnostic interface and is not registered on a computer system. Green (slow flashing): The BlueVCI is registered on a computer system. Green (fast flashing): The BlueVCI and the computer system are transferring data. Green/red (alternate flashing): Firmware update in progress. Red: Firmware update error. Red (slow flashing): The BlueVCI is overheating. If the LED is flashing, the BlueVCI must be disconnected from the power supply. The LED then is nonluminous. Yellow: Unable to start firmware. 10 of 20 BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 Interfaces and display 3.2 OBD Connector Assembly (OCA) A standard OCA or a manufacturer-specific OCA can be used for the vehicle connection. The OCA is secured with the two hexagon socket screws located on the top of the BlueVCI. The BlueVCI can be used to measure the voltage of the following signals: • • • • • • • • • Terminal 30, B+ Terminal 15, ignition HS CAN+ HS CANK1 K2 J1850 PWM+ / VPW / LS CAN+ J1850 PWM- / LS CAN- The OBD plug interface OCA01 has the following pin assignment: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

The Bluetooth interface is based on the Bluetooth standard V2.0 and has the following properties: • • • High data rate (max. 2Mbit/s) Pico net and scatter net WLAN coexistence (802.11) support (adaptive frequency hopping) The alternative WLAN interface supports the IEEE 802.11g standard and is backwards compatible with existing 802.11b installations. When using several BlueVCIs at the same location, the devices can be differentiated from one another by one’s own identification. An area is available on the top of the housing in which an own label can be attached for identification purposes. Figure 3-2 Identification BlueVCI 1. 2. Place for one’s own identification-code of BlueVCI Identification OCA 12 of 20 BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 Mechanical design Mechanical design The BlueVCI housing is made of two plastic shells that are held together by four TORX screws. The parts of the housing made of soft plastic (soft components) protect the device against shocks, prevent damages to surfaces and make it easier to handle. The housing cover is held in place by two hexagon socket screws (width 2 mm) and can be removed to replace the OCA (see figure 4.1). The rating plate, specifying order and serial number and rated voltage, and a safety notice label are attached to the base of the housing. Figure 4-1 Mechanical design and assembly To open the BlueVCI, unscrew the two hexagon socket screws, carefully lift off the cover and remove the OCA by lifting it slightly and pulling it forward out of the housing. Note Further dismantling of the BlueVCI voids the warranty. BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 13 of 21 Function Function 5.1 Startup Before using the BlueVCI several software settings must be configured. That is done by the diagnostic software. Please contact your supplier of the diagnostic software for further information. 5.2 Operation 1. 2. 3. Connect the BlueVCI to the diagnostic interface on a vehicle. The LED must be continuously lit in green. If necessary, connect the USB cable. The LED blinks green. Establishing a USB connection disconnects any existing Bluetooth or WLAN connection. Perform vehicle diagnosis by using the diagnostic software installed on the computer system. Please find further information about operation in the documentation of your diagnostic software supplier. 14 of 20 BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 Troubleshooting and Self-Test Troubleshooting and Self-Test The BlueVCI was tested before leaving the factory. Carefully selected components and performance of comprehensive quality inspections guarantee that the BlueVCI is extremely reliable. However, if a fault should occur, refer to the information provided in this section. You should attempt to identify and localize the fault as accurately as possible. Follow the solutions presented and perform all of the actions described. 6.1 Self-Test Handling and sequence of the BlueVCI self-test are performed with the diagnostic software application. The test adapter cable is required to do this. The power supply is ensured by the USB connection. 6.2 Symptoms, causes and solutions Symptom LED continuously lit in green. Possible cause Communication link lost. Solution Attempt to establish a different type of communication link. See also for specific instructions of the diagnostic application supplier. LED 3 flashing red. Excess temperature in Communication link BlueVCI during operation interrupted. Disconnect the BlueVCI from the diagnostic interface and, if applicable the USB connection and allow it to cool. LED constantly lit in yellow. Unable to start firmware. Disconnect the BlueVCI from all connections and re-connect. LED constantly lit in red. Firmware update failed. Repeat firmware update. See also for specific instructions of the diagnostic application supplier. Table 6-1 Possible faults BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 15 of 21 Maintenance and support Maintenance and support 7.1 Visual inspection Perform a regular visual inspection of the BlueVCI. Inspect all parts for damages e.g. breakages and dirt. Regularly check the device, all cables and the accessories for damage. If the housing is dirty, clean it with a lint-free moist (not wet) cloth. 7.2 Firmware update To update the firmware, a corresponding update file must be stored on the computer system. The update is done under the control of the diagnostic application software. 7.3 Replacing the diagnostic plug The diagnostic plug is attached to the BlueVCI with two hexagon socket screws and can easily be replaced in case of damage (see section 4). Note Further dismantling of the BlueVCI voids the warranty. 16 of 20 BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 Technical data Technical data 8.1 BlueVCI Dimensions (W x H x D) Approx. 47 x 24 x 104 mm Weight Ambient requirements Operation Approx. 95 g Ambient temperature Relative humidity 0 to +45°C At max. +25°C 10 to 80%, no condensation Operating height -400 to +2000 m NN Transportation and storage Ambient temperature Relative humidity Mechanical protection Free fall 2 m onto hardwood surface Electrical protection and safety Safety requirements: - Workshop equipment: UL 201 - Information processing equipment: DIN EN 60950 (VDE 0805), EN 60950, IEC 950, UL 60950, CSA-C22.2 No. 950 - Measuring instruments: DIN EN 61010-1 (VDE 0411 Section 1), EN 61010-1, IEC 1010-1 - Degree of protection (solid body, water, humidity) DIN EN 60529, IEC 529 - Degree of protection: IP 40 Pollution Degree II For internal use only Overvoltage protection category I Power supply Vehicle electrical system or USB BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 -20 to +60°C At max. +20°C 10 to 80%, no condensation 17 of 21 Technical data Supply from vehicle electrical system Rated voltages Current consumption in load range Maximum power consumption Protection Supply via USB Rated voltages Maximum power consumption Operation on diagnostic plug External interfaces, wireless Radio interface External interfaces, wired USB interface Vehicle interface Radio approvals 8 to 18 V DC, typically 12 V DC Max. 0.2 A at 12 V battery voltage 2.4 W Input protected against disturbances in line with DIN 40839 Section 1, test pulses 1 to 3, intensity IV and test pulse 4, intensity III. 5 V DC <2W Not possible - Bluetooth or - WLAN (depending on version) 1 x USB standard 1.1, type B OBD in line with ISO 15031 EN 301489-1, EN 301489-17, EN 300328-2, SAR IEEE 1528, SAR EN 50371, FCC Part 15 Class A, Bluetooth, WLAN Displays Status indicator - LED (yellow / green / red) Flash Memory None or up to 1 GB (depending on version) 8.2 USB cable USB cable, type A-B 0.5 m standard Contact durability > 1000 18 of 20 BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 Glossary Glossary 9.1 Abbreviations BlueVCI Bluetooth Vehicle Communication Interface DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol: Protocol for central management and assignment of IP addresses IP Internet Protocol OBD On-board diagnosis OCA OBD connector assembly TCP Transmission Control Protocol USB Universal Serial Bus OCA OBD Connector Assembly BlueVCI Hardware Operating Manual Edition 02/2007 Version V1.5 A5E00727814 19 of 21 We checked the content of this documentation for consistency with the state of the device described.
