communication with the tablet.
The Wireless Diagnostic Interface supports two communication methods with
the tablet: BT and USB.
Pairing Up via BT
Among all methods, BT pairing is recommended as the first choice for the
communication between the tablet and the MaxiFlash. The working range for
BT communication is about 210 feet (70 m); this means you can perform key
programming and vehicle diagnosis freely around the workshop with greater
convenience.
If you use more than one MaxiFlash to connect to the test vehicles when
customers are many, you can perform key programming and vehicle
diagnosis on various vehicles conveniently, by pairing the tablet separately
to each of the MaxiFlash connected to the different test vehicles, via BT,
without the need to repeat the plugging and unplugging procedure, which is
