    I strongly suggest you guys who could not find out how to update the tool to read our user manual carefully. It is stated there very clearly step by step.

    Reply to 3 floor: The problem is that it doesnt really tell you that when it asks you for a passwod that you have to locate it on the scanner itself.I tried for 3 days to figure it out and was trying to create my own password. That is why everyone is having a problem getting the tool and pc suite up and running.If you dont know where the password is on the scanner you are lost.

    to 4 floor: that is why i suggest you to read the manual carefully. .... For example, in the page 64, 8.1 register the tool, there is a note which says very clearly where to find the serial number and password........check it.

    Reply to 5 floor: It happens to be on page 60 in my book and it is very confusing.Maybe on the screen beside where it asks for password there could be a step by step on how to find password. Im sure alot of people try to create their own password and after about 10 times of gettin a wrong password message are cluless.I can figure any device i ever use. but had a hell of a time trying to register my tool.

    Reply to 7 floor: "Support"" re the user manual , this is my suggestion. After the introduction the first chapter should be ÜSER Setup- with a subtitle "Please read carefully" Sub sub title- Prior to use please take time to setup your scanner via the following steps. 1/ You must power up you scanner either by connecting via a usb to a PC, or connecting to a vehicle or via the OBD diagnostic plug, or via a 12 V connector. 2/ Navagate to the help screen and write down the SN and password number. 3/ go on the internet to Maxdas.com and Register 4/ Load CD program and save to PC. 5/ load SD card to PC 6/ Start update program and check for updates. The information is ALL in the current user manual- but the problem it's not at the start of the manual and a bit disjointed. Consider an edit and like any good manual- place the startup info at the start.

    Thanks for your suggestion. But do you think the way you show in the start-up is too much and would scare our potential customers away? ....... Actually you don't have to do the update to start your work, only when it is necessary you will turn to update for newer versions...........We would like our customers to know our tools are "plug and go" .
