Unlike the Eco Scangauge which I still have, it is not limited to the engine control unit.
The user interface on the device is also easy to use and can be switched to German (English is default).
The correct name under which you can also find it on the Internet is Creader VII +.
So we come to the update procedure:
1. you have to the Chinese producers on the bumpy translated website login, but a user is first created. Then you have to register what you need the serial number displayed on the menu for this user equipment. The serial number you need, according to website then a password, which in reality the registration code from the device menu but (and not the password of the user you just created.
For that I have puzzled a while ...
2. One to load the update software on his computer and installs them (Win7 or XP are possible)
3. One pulls the included 1GB mini SD card from the device and puts it in the supplied card reader and the PC
4. You start the update software, its device plays a serial number.
5. One of the software in which drive says the card is
6. The software prompts you for a username and password (the user of the registration on the website)
7. The software displays the available updates for selection. If you select all, so fit the not voted do not occur in the area with me at the end of the map, so I car brand, then it fits.
8. invites the update software and copies the data to the card (you can get the Directories afterwards with real names View)
The map 9 one pushes back into the tester and starts, firmware updates are then possibly loaded first and then the unit will start normally.
The built-in USB port on the tester is only for the power supply as far as I can see here, the tester logs in any case the computer is not on. But it's a good way to put the unit at a desk in transition.
The German translation of the texts in the user interface is not complete, in the lower menu levels, everything is in English. OK for me.
There is a good bug tracking system on the device in which you can enter the error number and gets a German explanatory text.
Conclusion:
A device with good properties in workshops but with a little more complicated and difficult to control update feature. Therefore a star deduction.
