Communication
The Wireless Diagnostic Interface supports both BT and USB communication.
It can transmit vehicle data to the MaxiSys Display Tablet with or without a
physical connection. The working range of the transmitter through BT
communication is about 755 feet (about 230 m). A signal lost due to moving
out of range automatically restores itself when the display unit is brought
closer to the VCI unit.
