Setting Up the Flasher-PRO
Powering Flasher-PRO
First, determine how the Flasher-PRO will receive power:
1.
Vehicle power: The optional MVCI to OBD-II cable provides power to
the Flasher-PRO from a vehicle. Most vehicles built after 1996 have
an OBD-II port somewhere under the dash on the driver's side, as
specified in SAE J1962.
2.
Bench top power supply: When using the Flasher-PRO on a bench,
put power on pin 16 (VBATT) and ground on pin 5 (Signal Ground).
When Flasher-PRO is first powered-on, the lights will cycle through a
self-test procedure. Remember that the Flasher-PRO does not receive
power from your PC's Ethernet or USB ports.
Connecting and Configuring Flasher-PRO
Second, connect the Flasher-PRO to your PC:
Using USB
The Flasher-PRO is powered from the vehicle connector, so it will have
to be connected to a vehicle or powered from an external power supply
to use USB. Once powered, connect your PC to the Flasher-PRO thru
USB to install the drivers.
1.
Once connected, you
will be prompted from
windows with new
hardware found.
2.
Select Install from a list
or specific location. Click
browse and point to
the CD drive, under the
Drivers-USB folder. If your
CD-ROM is Drive letter E,
the path would be
e:\Drivers-USB.
3.
Follow the process; it will install the USB drivers.
