4.3 Diagnosis Methods
S3001 tablet supports 2 communication methods with the S3001 VCI device:
Wi-Fi and data cable. You may choose any one of the methods to diagnose a
vehicle.
*Notes:

To obtain stable communication, you are strongly recommended to perform the
vehicle diagnosis via USB cable. In this case, the USB cable is required to connect
the S3001 VCI device and the tablet.

When all communication methods are applied at the same time, the S3001
system will use the USB communication as the default priority.

4.4.2 DLC location
The DLC (Data Link Connector) is typically a standard 16 pin connector where
diagnostic code readers interface with the vehicle’s on-board computer. The
DLC is usually located 12 inches from the center of the instrument panel (dash),
under or around the driver’s side for most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is not
located under dashboard, a label should be there telling location. For some
Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located behind the ashtray and the
ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If the DLC cannot be found,
refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.
