Connecting To Vehicle; Connecting The Main Dlc Cable To The Base Unit; Connecting To The Vehicle - Zenith Z5 User Manual

2.8. Connecting to Vehicle

⚫ Connecting the main DLC cable to the base unit

Connect the DLC main cable to the Z5 D-sub connector and secure the connection by
fastening the 2 main screws. Do not apply excessive force when fastening the screws.

⚫ Connecting to the Vehicle

Extend the DLC main cable connected to the Z5 to the vehicle side DLC socket. Different
types of non-standard diagnostic adapter may be used for the pre-OBD2 models or the
commercial vehicles. If the vehicle is not OBD2 / EOBD compliant, identify and attach the
matching adapter, then connect it to the vehicle side socket.
The diagnostic adapters are designed to fit in the vehicle side diagnostic ports, therefore the
diagnostic adapters supplied with the different scan tools may look alike or similar. However,
internal wiring and circuits can be different, therefore not compatible each other. Please do
not use the diagnostic adapters that are not supplied by EZDS specifically for use with Z5
and never attempt to connect the adapters supplied by a third party.
Use of wrong adapters may result in communication failure, damage to the device as
well as the vehicle control system, and EZDS are not liable for any
damage and loss caused. Also, it constitutes warranty void conditions for Z5 base
unit itself.
