5.4 Connecting to a Vehicle
Connection instructions prompt you to connect the scan tool to a vehicle data link connector
(DLC) for testing (Figure 5-7). See the appropriate vehicle communication software manual
for details on connecting to a vehicle.

Sample connection instruction screen
Vehicle power is required for proper scan tool to vehicle communication during testing. The
scan tool receives 12V power through the 93L Data Cable when connected to the vehicle
DLC. The scan tool turns on automatically when connected to a DLC that provides power.
Certain vehicles do not provide vehicle power on the DLC. For these applications, a separate
cable adapter and power cable are needed to power the unit, contact your sales
representative for availability. Optional data cable adapters are available for a number of
vehicle manufacturers. The power cable connects to a port on the cable adapter.
IMPORTANT:
IMPORTANT:
Never connect the optional power cable or AC/DC power supply to the DC power supply input
on top of the unit when the scan tool is communicating with the vehicle.
If vehicle power is not available from the DLC, a “No power from vehicle” message may
display when the tool is powered up. Should this happen, verify that power is available on the
DLC, or connect the optional auxiliary power cables before continuing.
