J2534 Reprogramming Capability
The J2534 ECU Programming Device is a SAE J2534-1 & -2 compliant
PassThru reprogramming interface device. Using the updated OEM software,
it is capable of replacing the existing software/firmware in the Electronic
Control Units (ECU), programming new ECUs and fixing software-controlled
drivability issues and emission issues.
Communication
The J2534 ECU programming device supports BT and USB communications.
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 210 feet (about 70 m). A signal lost due to moving out of
range automatically restores itself when the display tablet unit is brought
closer to the VCI unit.
