Review on VXDIAG VCX SE Series Scanners

Looking to buy a scan tool for your vehicle? The VXDIAG VCX SE Series line of scanners offers fantastic tools. Whether you want to check your Benz’s system ECU or a Jaguar’s fuel consumption, these tools can save you time and money.

A VCX SE scan tool is a PC-to-vehicle interface. The scanner plugs into a vehicle’s OBD2 port and connects to a PC. All the devices represented here can connect via a USB cable or over WIFI. When you establish a connection, the scanner can run various diagnostic functions.

Let’s delve deeper into this review and compare three of the most popular VXDIAG VCX SE scanners.

1. Overview

VCX SE for BMW, VCX SE JLR, and VCX SE for Benz scanners are designed for vehicles that need exclusive software and hardware requirements. These scanners support DOIP (Diagnostic over Internet protocol). Apart from Wi-Fi and USB connection, you can also use a DONET connection with any of the three gadgets.

These scanners can perform local diagnosis, and super remote diagnosis. For super remote diagnosis, they need equipment networking to enable online diagnosis.

The most important aspect of these dongles is depending on the serial number, they can work with just specific vehicles. For example, the VCX SE JLR with serial number S94JL**** and VCX SE BMW with serial number S94BMW*** only support JLR and BMW brands. You cannot add another brand’s license.

However, with serial number V94SE****, VCX SE JLR and VCX SE BMW scanners can be added with other licenses. Especially, the VCX SE Benz DOIP works with Benz, but you can also add other brands licenses. It can work with BMW, Ford, GM, Mazda, Toyota, Jaguar, VW ODIS, Volvo, Subaru, and Porsche.

How to Fix DTS Monaco Coding Error F1?

Problem:

I am learning to use DTS Monaco with vxdiag benz c6 drip vci. Today I built a workspace for the audio controller on my 2021 447 Van. I can connect to it (HU447) and read the coding. But, if I change any setting and then try to write the coding back, I get error NRC = F1 cannot write coding.

Any input on what the error is and what I need to do to rectify this would be appreciated.

Solution:

Error code F1 from a control unit means that there is a firewall blocking the correct communication between the control unit and your diagnostic device (vxdiag c6 here).
In order to temporarily disable the firewall, you need to go to the vehicle’s EZS, using the correct SMR-D, and unlock the security level 3B.

Remember that once you give up the diagnostic connection to the EZS, the firewall will be right back.

It is therefore a good idea to open a DTS Monaco session, using the ECU files you need + EZS, and leave the EZS connection open, while doing your stuff.
