M.U.T.-III Components Explanations
(1) Vehicle Communication Interface (V.C.I.) (MB991824)
A communication interface used to connect the vehicle
ECUs and the PC.
1. When connected with the PC
• Vehicle diagnosis (Interactive fault diagnosis)
• SWS communication & CAN communication support
• Drive recorder
• ECU reprogramming
• Volt, Ohm, measurement
• Fuel pressure measurement (Not available in US)
2. When used with the V.C.I. unit (disconnected from PC)
• V.C.I. Stand-alone diagnosis
• Drive recorder
• ECU reprogramming
• Volt, Ohm measurement
• Belt Tension measurement
(2) Memory Card
Stores data for ECU reprogramming, drive recorder, etc.
This is a standard, off-the-shelf memory card. The one
provided (with reprogramming data) is a Compact Flash
memory card (MB991853, MB992228) inserted into the CF
card adapter (MB991939).
It is necessary to initialize a Compact Flash memory card
by FAT16 and FAT32 format. (NTFS format cannot use)
(3) M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (MB991910)
Used when connecting the V.C.I. with vehicles that have
only one 16-pin diagnosis connector.
• Supports fault diagnosis and ECU updating on the
above-described vehicles
• Supports the CAN communication system
(4) M.U.T.-III Main Harness B (MB991911)
Used when connecting V.C.I. with vehicles that have a
16-pin + 12-pin or 16-pin + 13-pin diagnosis connector.
For models equipped with only 12-pin (or 12-pin + 12-pin)
diagnosis connector, connect the M.U.T.-II adapter harness
(MB991498) to the end of this harness in the same as
M.U.T.-II, and power is supplied from the cigarette lighter
socket.
