Xentry Connect - Mercedes-Benz XENTRY Kit 2 User Manual

Menu:
1. Network profile: Here, you can switch between the
"Workshop" and "Service24h" network profiles. The
XENTRY Tab 2 is switched to a different network profile
here.
Note: The XENTRY Connect must be separately switched to
the appropriate profile through the Display menu.
2. Language: The language can be changed here. After a
language has been selected, XENTRY Control restarts
and is afterward available again in the language you
have selected. When establishing a connection with the
XENTRY Connect, the language is automatically also
adopted for the XENTRY Connect if you have confirmed
this with "OK" in the displayed dialog. Only after
renewed logoff from the XENTRY Connect and then
during the next establishment of a connection will all
applications be changed over.
Note: Only at this point is a change of the language setting
of XENTRY Connect and the diagnostic software XENTRY
Diagnostics possible. The previous language changeover in
XENTRY Diagnostics is therefore deactivated with immedi-
ate effect.
Note: If a language not supported by XENTRY Control is
installed on your XENTRY Tab 2/standard PC, English is
automatically selected as the language in XENTRY Control.
3. Configuration: ConfigAssist is started. Details can be
found in the chapter 5 Initial Startup and Configuration.
4. Group: If the devices are defined in groups, the desired
group can be set. This provides a better overview in large
workshops with several XENTRY Connect devices. The
group definition must be specified on initial startup/
configuration; this is only possible using the Expert
configuration (see the chapter 5.2.2 Expert mode initial
startup)
5. Search tone: Clicking onto the "speaker" icon triggers
a search tone on the XENTRY Connect, and the LEDs
flash; this enables the device to be located more easily
in the workshop or a check to be carried out to ascertain
whether it is accessible.
6. Update button: Clicking on this button refreshes the
display of XENTRY Control.

9.3 Working with XENTRY Control and XENTRY Connect
To start a diagnostic session, you always need to connect
to a XENTRY Connect via the XENTRY Control software. As
soon as a connection with a XENTRY Connect is establis-
hed, the diagnosis desktop appears. The diagnosis desktop
displays the XENTRY Connect user interface including all
programs available there. The following figure shows the
basic structure of the diagnosis desktop.

By clicking onto the XENTRY Connect shown at the bottom in
the Windows taskbar (in the figure, "Number of the connected
XENTRY Connect"), you can switch between the diagnosis
desktop and the XENTRY Tab 2 desktop. XENTRY Control is
minimized or maximized by clicking onto the Windows taskbar
icon. All areas with gray backgrounds, such as the diagnosis
desktop and the deskband, belong to the XENTRY Connect.
The individual components of the XENTRY Control user interfa-
ce will be described in greater detail below.
