1 GENERAL INTRODUCTION
The H6 PRO Smart Diagnostics System is an advanced scanning tool based on the
Android operating system. It supports multi-language switching and is suitable for
different countries and regions.
The advantage of this scanner is not only its comprehensive functions, including
complete system diagnosis, and full OBDⅡfunctions, but various reset functions can
also achieve a faster and more accurate diagnosis.
The H6 PRO Smart Diagnostics System mainly includes:
⚫Car Diagnostics Tablet
⚫Wireless Diagnostics Module
⚫Main test cable
⚫Connectors
⚫Power adapter
Before performing the diagnosis program, please make sure that the VCI box is
successfully connected to your vehicle, and connect the VCI box with Bluetooth on the
tablet.
Some old cars with non-OBD2 standard protocol need to be connected with our VCI
box through specific pin connectors.
Using the wrong connector may cause your car to be unrecognized by the diagnostic
tool.
Please confirm the OBD connector specifications configured on your car before
connecting.
1.1.TABLET OVERVIEW
The main unit of the H6 PRO Smart Diagnostics System is the tablet. It allows you to
operate all diagnosis functions, and it can also work as a normal Android tablet.

1.2.VCI BOX
To communicate with the vehicle via OBD, H6 PRO also comes up with a wireless
diagnostics module, also known as the VCI box. The tablet needs a Bluetooth
connection with the VCI box to get access to all software.
Although some functions (like EEPROM Adapter) will not need you to communicate to
the vehicle, please power up the VCI box using a 12V power adapter to get access to the
software.
