Characteristics & Technical Data

Highlights
Together with the illuminated
graphic display and the
programmable buttons the Power
XS becomes a stand- alone tool for
diagnostic operations, calibration
and programming of vehicles. The
VCI- Engine, an additional 16 bit
micro controller, is used for the
vehicle communication and
protocol handling.

The Power XS is the high

performance VCI for the next
generation of vehicle diagnosis.
It is the right tool for work shop
use because it is rugged, handy,
battery powered and booting fast.
The internal battery management
system ensures automatic charging
when connected to the car battery.
The watchdog and wake up
mechanism provides low energy
consumption in sleep- mode.

Technical Data

A PC or other client application

realized in the individual
environment of the customer could
be run on the Power- Engine, the
Linux operated processor system of
the Power XS.
