Real MB star C5 features:

1.It improves a lot in hardware and software.
2. With engineer software
3.Comes with one internal disc and one portable hard disk.
4.Comes with no computer.
5.No computer brand limit as long as the computer has 4GB storage at least and running Windows 7 – 32-bit or Windows 8 – 32-bit.
6.Update: for common update, dealer send update files to user for update; for special update, the user is supposed to ship back the disk to flash.
7.Real MB star C5 communication: Via Wlan (IEEE802.11 a/b/g/n2.4+5GHZ )
8.The licensing system is reworked – now licenses are stored on MB servers – Any license changes are tracked by the multiplexer when connected to the Internet network.


Why should buy Xentry connect?

After 2015, all Star Diagnosis equipment is no longer supported. That means there is no update diagnostic data for the newest cars and their systems. The lack of the possibility of coding and programming of electronic units due to the backlog of the software data level in the device, from data in the electronic control units of the car.

At the end of 2014, among dealerships, almost all of them who previously used Star Diagnosis Compact4 with SDConnect DoIP multiplexers were almost gone. Instead, dealerships choosed Xentry Kit kits which include the latest Xentry Connect multiplexers and Xentry Tab tablets from Panasonic. Tablets are custom-made, also they have a "civilian” version – the Panasonic Toughbook CF-D1, which has a more powerful configuration but shorter battery life than the original Xentry Tab.

Honestly, it seems exaggerated for non-dealer use Xentry Tab. While for dealers, that is necessary.

And what about workshop service?

Undoubtedly, the tablet from Panasonic is well while the price is too high. The cost of the Japanese tablet is realistic to buy pieces of eight new laptops or tablets from other manufacturers.

So , we suggest to buy Xentry connect from us , then buy a laptop yourself . the software from which Xentry Connect is managed can be installed without any problems on any computer that has a 32-bit version of Windows 7, Windows 8 or Windows 10. It’s clear with Xentry Connect itself – there’s no alternative .

After all, in this choice there are many reasons that encourage one to make a decision. The main thing is one: since 2015, the diagnostic multiplexer Xentry Connect C5 becomes the only one used at dealerships.

Thus, by purchasing this equipment, you do not lag behind the progress. You use in your work the best that is available today. Each your client, seeing with his own eyes that you in your work use the same device that he saw at the dealer’s service station, will understand that he made the right decision entrusting his car to your specialists.

Real MB star C5 price:

As for the price, real MB Star C5 will be sale 1095 EURO in www.obd2tool.com without shipping cost. The price is about 2 times higher than the old C5.

Tool Q&A: Ready to tackle TPMS service?

Techs must know the underlying TPMS tasks: relearns, sensor failures and senor programming.

There are so many topics coming into play within the automotive industry that you would think every technician would be concentrating all their attention on. Topics like telematics, greenhouse gas reduction technologies and OBD hacking. Yet even with all of these game changers in front of us, a major buzzword still seems to be Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS).

TPMS has been mandated by the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation (TREAD) Act since 2007 and has actually been in existence since the 1980s. Its purpose is just what its name implies. So how does it work? Sensors inside the tires monitor the pressure and tell an electronic control module (ECM). If a tire pressure is low, a warning light comes on. Seems simple, right? Yet an idea so simple, is a lot more intricate than one would think.
Q: What are the biggest issues a technician may experience with TPMS systems?

A: There are three TPMS issues that a technician will face if he works with tires: relearns, sensor failures, and sensor programming.

1) Relearns: You come across these when you do a tire rotation. Many manufacturers have each tire sensor position "learned” so when a sensor fails, the ECM knows which tire to alert you of. Every time you rotate the tires, you need to do the manufacturer specific relearn procedures in order for the vehicle to learn the new position of the tires.

Many times, technicians who skip this procedure end up having it catch up to them in the long term. For example, let’s say the technician does the tire rotation. There is no TPMS light on, so he sends it on his way. Later down the road, on a busy day (because every technician knows these things only happen on your busiest day), the customer comes in stating their right front tire is low and would like the technician to put air in it.

Guess what that technician gets to do? Check every tire, wondering which one is low. If the customer is observant, he may even ask, "why are you adding air to the right rear tire when it says the right front is low?” Now the technician has to explain that he got lazy on that customer’s prized possession the last time they were in.

So remember this every time you do a tire rotation. The vehicle may need a TPMS relearn. But remember on the plus side, it’s okay to charge extra for it

2) Failures: TPMS failures are when you have an issue with the Professional Diagnostic Tool TPMS system. This can be a mechanical failure or an electrical failure. Many failures lead to sensor replacement. Replacing sensors leads to the next issue, sensor programming.

3) Sensor Programming: Just like getting a new ECM in a car requires programming, so do TPMS sensors.

According to TPMS experts., there are two main types of aftermarket replacement sensors for TPMS. One type comes blank and needs the vehicle protocol programmed onto it, while another type comes with all manufacturer protocols built into it, and your reset tool picks which protocol you want it to use. Therefore, it is important to know what your tool is capable of so that you know the type of sensor to order from your parts supplier when replacing sensors.
Q: What would I need to be service ready for ATEQ VT55 OBDII TPMS Diagnostic Tool?

A: To be fully TPMS capable, you need to start at your parts supplier. They need to have sensors readily available for delivery. You also need to be aware of the types of sensors they have. Are they blank and in need of a protocol programmed into it? Or do they have every protocol already programmed and need selecting? The answer to this is critical for the next step.

Remember how the old adage goes, "You gotta have the right tools to do the job.” Something we technicians have had beaten into our brains since day one.

You need to have the tools to diagnose, repair, and program the TPMS systems. Manufacturers for TPMS equipment include Bartec USA, ATEQ Corp. and Bosch OTC. From the ATEQ Corp. VT55 to Bartec’s TPMS Mechanical Tool Kit to Bosch OTC’s TPMS reset tool, these companies bring a wide variety of user-friendly, yet technologically advanced tools to the table, whether you are diagnosing faults, mechanically repairing sensor parts, or programming the sensors.
Q: Why is TPMS service advantageous in California?

A: On Sept. 1, 2010, the California Air Resources Board’s Tire Pressure Regulation came into effect, declaring that all automotive service providers must set a vehicle’s tire pressure every time they touch a car, then record their findings on the invoice. The tire pressure gauge must also be accurate within 2 PSI above or below actual pressure.

This is a free rein to inspect tires and TPMS systems! Either way, you are going to have to approach tire pressure with the customer, so why not use it to your advantage? This is where customers will see that not only did you follow the law and record their set tire pressure, but you were also proactive enough to go above and beyond to let them know how to take care of their TPMS systems, even if everything checks out fine.

So as much as people try to avoid TPMS from www.obd2tool.com, its clearly here to stay. It’s as integral a part of our diagnostics as anything else. Therefore, with proper education and tooling, TPMS can be embraced instead of questioned and shunned.

ICOM A is a basic component. Physically, on one hand, it supplies the interface that connects with car OBD II diagnosing interface; on the other hand, it can supply the interface that is self-adaptable intergraded into garage. As protocol converter, it is responsible for testing and data exchange in different controlling units, as well as signal processing through a high effective computer core. Electrical power pressure is supplied by vehicle interface. The lowest power pressure of Electrical operation of ICOM A is fixed to 8V. Only it exceeds the lowest value, can a stable function be guaranteed.

ICOM A vs ICOM A2 vs ICOM A3

ModifiedBMW ICOM A2 for vehicles with OBD access receives a significantly more powerful processor and more storage capacity. And robust aluminium case will help to avoid damage when using in harsh environments. It works better in cooling, runs faster and works more stable, not easier broken than older ICOM A.

ICOM A3 can program all units for all BMW series expect media system, and work more stable and has stronger compatibility than ICOM A2, A1.
ICOM B – diagnosis via MOST bus, and possess link to A-interface through USB connection

1-2

ICOM B for vehicles with optical MOST access will be equipped with a soft cover made of rubber instead of the former plastic cap, to protect the MOST connector
ICOM B is the external MOST interface of ICOM A, and it connect with ICOM A by a usual USB or that within supplying. Power is supplied by USB through ICOM A from OBD2TOOL.
Only when the power supplied to ICOM A lower to 8V, can electrical running of ICOM B be ready to connect with standard.

ICOM C–20-pin cable for previous types

1-3
ICOM C for old series with a diagnostics socket will be additionally equipped with an approx. 20 cm long cable, which facilitates the connection of the ICOM A2 and makes storage in the engine compartment easier.

ICOM C in an intelligent interface converter, which makes OBD II compatible with BMW round plug. As a lengthened auxiliary module, it makes ICOM A connects with non-OBD II vehicle module. Power is supplied by round plug through KL30.

The lowest pressure of ICOM C electrical running regulated to 8v. Electrical pressure on KL30 is conveyed to OBD II through internal equipment, and then to ICOM A. Only when vehicle battery voltage ICOM C exceeds to the lowest limitation, can it guarantee the stable interactivity of the two equipments.

ICOM A2, ICOM B, ICOM C connection:

1-4

ICOM A B C and BMW E & F-series

1-5

Save a lot for E and F series:

BMW E series: K+DCAN USB cable

BMW F series: ENET cable

ICOM D – for BMW motorcycles motobikes diagnostics

1-6

ICOM D is a 10-pin to 16-pin diagnostic cable for BMW motorcycles motobikes diagnostic and programming together with ICOM A2

It is the TOP 1 in the BMW motor diagnostics list, with the most powerful & stable function and the best reputation.
