Establishing a Connection With the Diagnostic Head: Notes
- Attach the diagnostic cable to the head. The cable will only fit in the correct socket.NOTE: Use the correct cable according to the type of diagnosis socket that the vehicle has (16 pin OBD II or BMW 20 pin under the hood).
- Connect the diagnostic cable to the vehicle.
- Turn on the ignition.
- As a test, all three LEDs will illuminate. The green LED should stay illuminated to indicate that the head is receiving operating power.
- The amber LED will flash until a connection to the DISplus can be established.
- As soon as the LAN connection with the DISplus is established, the flashing amber LED will change to a steady light.
- Connection to the Diagnostic Head of the DISplus can be confirmed and created from the "Connection Setup" screen of the Administration page.
- If Radio-LAN communication with the Diagnostic Head is not possible, a hardwire cable connection may be made.
- Connect the DK LAN cable as shown in the illustration (orange connector).
- On the DISplus, disconnect the SE LAN cable (the one connecting the DISplus to the network). Connect the other end of the DK LAN cable (that looks like a phone connector) to the DISplus LAN receptacle.
- Restart the Head by briefly disconnecting and connecting it to the vehicle to initialize communication.
