VIVID LINQ LED INFORMATION
Once connected to the vehicles data port the VIVID LINQ will have several LED
lights that become active.
Power LED (status light)
-
Device has Power: If the Red LED blinks (this light blinks at its own
interval when powered)
-
Device is in ERROR state: If the Red LED is solid and not blinking
or a long blink
-
Device has not paired yet with VIVID dongle: If only the Red LED
is
blinking
Bluetooth connection LED
-
Device is IDLE if the Blue LED blinks every 2 seconds
-
Device is communicating: If the Blue LED is fl ashing very rapidly
(DAQ is on if constant rapid fl ash)
Your vehicle is already tuned (VIN-Locked) if both Red and Blue LEDs come on at
the same time for 1 second once plugged into vehicle port.
The VIVID LINQ can be attached indefi nitely to the vehicles OBD-II port if you plan
to use our Advanced Data Acquisition software included in the VIVID software suite.
If the vehicle will be sitting for long periods of time without being started periodically,
please disconnect the VIVID LINQ from the vehicle’s data port to prevent voltage
draw from the battery.
This cable must remain plugged into the vehicles OBD-II port throughout the
tuning process. Removal of the cable from the OBD-II port while tuning can result in
a vehicle no start.
POWERING UP THE ARCHOS FOR THE FIRST TIME
Make sure your ARCHOS device is
100% charged
before tuning. After updating the
VIVID LINQ to the latest fi les online, plug the VIVID LINQ into the vehicle’s Data
Port and make sure the lights are NOT in one of the error conditions.
If the power light is blinking like it should (as described in the section above), the
ARCHOS can be connected to the LINQ via Bluetooth.
The power button is located on the lower right hand side of the ARCHOS unit. Pressing
the button will initiate the power on sequence.
