" This ability to
perform remote
diagnostics is
very helpful in
determining
the severity of
the issue and
if the vehicle
can continue to
be driven. "
Brandon Alexander,
marketing manager, Thinkcar
year. Via the platform, technicians
can post vehicle and ECU-specific
programming tasks directly from
one of the Autel Ultra Series tablets.
" Experienced expert programmers
with subscriptions to OE software
can then 'pick up' the job and negotiate
a price with tech, " Whitney
said. " Once confirmed, the expert
connects to the vehicle in need of
service via a hardware and software
configuration that includes the use
of J2534 programming devices and
the technician's tablet. "
Autel ensures ECMs are programmed
correctly by using the
correct OE software and ensuring
that the server connection is strong
and consistent to enable the software
to be installed successfully
and completely. " On both ends of the
remote programming operation, we
highly recommend the connection is
hardwired to the internet modem to
ensure successful module programming, "
Whitney said.

their main tool for remote diagnosis.
" Aftermarket providers offer
applications like TripVision that
remotely monitor all components
on their truck for faults, but remote
programming must be done through
the OE's tool. These tools are usually
also limited to the brands and their
components, " he said.
However, diagnostic tools can aid
in overall remote programming,
said Allison Whitney, a content
manager for Autel. " A diagnostic
tablet capable of performing an
all-system scan of all the available
systems on the vehicle is essential
to pre-scan and gauge the status of
the vehicle prior to determining
if a module needs to be flashed or
replaced, and to perform a postscan
to ensure the programming
efforts have resolved the initial
issue and that no issues have been
created as a result of programming, "
she said.
Autel has rolled out a Remote
Export platform for passenger
and light-duty vehicle module
programming and hopes to expand
the service to commercial vehicles,
which Whitney said are more
complex, toward the end of the
Remote support
for technicians
Technology providers said they've
also built in remote support options.
" We have a remote technician function
where our support personnel
can remote into our tools and take
over the control of the tool from a
desktop, " said Victor Rivilla, marketing
director for CanDo International.
" We can then show users where
certain modules and functions can
be found in the tool, and if they so
choose, we can perform those functions
for them. "
Examples include locating the
proper path to clear codes and
perform a DPF reset and regen,
Rivilla explained. " It is more to help
novice technicians or new users of
our tool, " he said.
Thinkcar's professional diagnostic
tools feature TeamViewer, which
allows access to the tool from any
desktop or laptop computer. " In
addition to viewing recorded/live
data and reports, the remote technician
can directly control the tool
while connected to the vehicle, "
Alexander said, adding that for a
more comprehensive remote diagnostic
solution, Thinkcar designed
the X5 and X10. " These tools
combine video and voice communication
with professional level
diagnostics. The remote technician
can not only view and control the
tool but can also speak to the field
technician, hear the vehicle, and
visually observe any issues. "
