Figure 4-1 Connection between Auxiliary Power Outlet Adapter and Clipper Cable
2. Plug the DC power connector of the auxiliary power outlet adapter into the DC
power supply input port of the VCI.
3. Connect the clipper cable to the vehicle's battery.
NOTE
After the VCI is successfully connected to the vehicle, the Power LED on the device lights
solid green and a beeping sound will be heard.
4.1.1.2 VCI Connection
After the VCI is properly connected to the vehicle, the Power LED on the VCI lights solid
green, and is ready to establish communication with the tablet.
The VCI supports two communication methods with the tablet: Bluetooth and USB.
Pairing via Bluetooth
In open areas, the working range for Bluetooth communication is about 328 feet (100 m),
giving technicians greater mobility to perform vehicle diagnosis from anywhere in the
repair shop.
To expedite multi-vehicle diagnostics, more than one VCI can be used in busy repair
shops, enabling technicians to quickly pair their MaxiSys tablet to each VCI separately
via Bluetooth and therefore eliminating the need to unplug the VCI from one vehicle and
then connect it to another each time.

To pair the tablet with the VCI via Bluetooth
1. Power up the tablet.
2. Select the VCI Manager application from the MaxiSys Job Menu.
3. Select VCI BT from the connection mode list. Tap the Bluetooth toggle to turn it
ON. The device automatically scans for available VCIs for pairing. The found
devices are listed on the right side of the screen.
