VXDIAG VCX SE BMW vs BMW ICOM Next
Vxdiagshop here lists some significant differences between the vxdiag vcx se BMW and ICOM next (clone) multiplexer.
Differences:
- The cost of the vcx se adapter is much lower than icom next, which is of key importance, for example, when buying for personal needs or small car service.
- The adapter is much smaller than the ICOM while maintaining the baud rate, it can be carried in your pocket.
- The vcx se does not need different adapters for E and F / G series like ICOM Next
- VCX SE BMW is compatible with the original ISTA+ (latest version), ICOM Next clone may not.
- VCX SE does not support Motorcycle, ICOM Next does.

How to Solve VXDIAG JLR DoIP Device Not Connected Error?
Problem:
I have got the JLR DoIP license activated on my VXDIAG JLR VCX SE VCI device and paid 1 time service on topix.landrover official.
Pathfinder failed to log me in and said Device Not Connected and no response with ECU during autoscan a Land rover L551 year 2020.
VXdiagshop.com solution:
“Device not connected” error usually caused by lower VX Manager and firmware version.
Download latest version vx manager (1.8.4 on May 2021), then update firmware and license.
*NOTE:
If you log out Pathfinder to update the driver and firmware, one-time online programming service will expire and won’t let you log in again.
Make sure the JLR DoIP VCI has the latest vx manager and firmware version before carry out programming.
Users are allowed to register a free account on Topix if require diagnosis functions only. Programming does require an online subscription. Vxdiagshop.com does not provide online programming account, you can purchase subscription from Topix JLR.

Possible VXDIAG VCX SE for Benz Bleed SBC brake system?
I want to activate, deactivate and bleed air out of system. (SBC brake system…) I need this SBC FUNCTION this is the only reason I bought this VXDIAG VCX SE for BENZ DoIP scanner. i have tested with LAUNCH CRP429C, AUTEL MK808, and UCANDAS BT….. none of them support ABS/SBC bleed on my car (year2007)… But both LAUNCH and UCANDAS BT could do this function up to year 2006. mentioned on their Home/website.
This is what I did with : Passenger car -> Xentry Diagnosis -> F2 ->Data are being determined and can’t go ahead.
And no matter what I choose next and then click on “F3”, nothing happens.
Look at the images below:

For Mercedes, all programming functions need to perform with online account and authorization.
That is all programming functions for Mercedes, need to get account and authorization from original.
The method to get online account: from original Daimler.
For this function, can perform with DTS Monaco (it is included in the software hdd).
Only have have video for using DTS with C4, for reference:
but it is similar to use vxdiag device, please note, when you use dts, need to use USB cable to connect device to laptop.
