to your vehicle’s data. Please make sure to read this quick start guide completely. If you require further assistance in

Your Data, The Way You Want It.
VADpro has access to 64 of your vehicle’s sensors and can display your data across ten dierent pages. Use the touch
screen to navigate between each page and choose which sensor you want to display. To get you started quickly, your
VADpro comes pre-loaded with six example pages.
Need more customizaon? You can personalize your pages by changing the graphics, colours, sensors and widgets
and build your own views using the CANchecked DSS soware included with your device. For more informaon on
personalizing, customizing, and saving your dashboards, please refer to vadpro.com/documentaon.

Seng Up Your Display
VADpro uses an engine code specic TRX le to decode your ECU data, in conjuncon with ten widget les
or widget pack, to congure how your data is displayed on your device. This data can be displayed in three
dierent formats and two languages based on your preference:
Step 1: Load your vehicle specic TRX le on to the VADpro
When boong the unit for the rst me, the screen will display the inial setup page aer the splash screen. This is
where you will need to load your vehicle’s specic TRX le.
Our library of supported vehicles is growing, however if your car’s motor code does not show up on the list, press the
“support data” buon to generate the car’s support data. Take a photo / make a note of the number generated and
send an email to [e-mail] Our team of engineers will be able to work with you to get you a working
TRX le within one to three business days.
Step 2: Load the widget pack
Pull down from the main screen to reveal the Setup and DTC buons and navigate:
Setup > (scroll down) Pages > Widget Pack > Load the widget pack Imperial, Hybrid or Metric that corresponds with
the TRX le you loaded in Step 1.
i. Press “Scan Motor Code” to idenfy your vehicle’s unique
four leer motor code. We will use “DLRA” as an example.
ii. Make a note of the rst three leers of the motor code. In
this example “DLR”
iii. The le name contains “U-” followed by the rst three
leers of your motor code, and the widget pack you will
be using: I for Imperial, M for Metric, H for Hybrid, G for
German.
iv. In this example, a customer in the USA with imperial units
would select the le: U-DLR-I.trx. A european customer
would select le: U-DLR-M.trx
Type Pressure Speed Temperature Wideband Language
Imperial PSI mph °F AFR English
Metric BAR kmh °C λ English
Hybrid PSI kmh °C AFR English
German BAR kmh °C λ German
