Introduction

The Wireless Diagnostic Interface is a multi-brand device which comes with
the FCAR tool kit. 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).
