The Advanced Diagnostics Smart Pro is a wonderful piece of
equipment. However, interpreting the display while you are not familiar with
the icons can be challenging. After
setting up your Smart Pro,
it’s best to familiarize yourself with these icons so you’re ready for the job
ahead.
Vehicle Selection
Vehicle selection is the furthest right Smart Pro icon in
the top row. This takes you to a manufacturer menu, followed by a make menu.
You can change the region of the list if necessary. You need this menu so you
can connect to vehicles using the correct protocols.
Programming
The programming icon on the Smart Pro display will remain
greyed out until you connect to a vehicle via an OBD cable. This button takes
you back to the same listing you used to connect to the car. From there, you
can perform functions from that main vehicle menu, such as key programming.
OBD
The OBD Smart Pro display icon is used to sort through and
clear engine fault codes. The Smart Pro is equipped to display the fault codes,
help you work through them, and eventually clear them as you resolve the
issues. This makes it a versatile diagnostic tool.
Transponder
The transponder icon is used with another Smart Pro tool, the
Smart Aerial. This device cuts down the time it takes to program new keys
by using pre-coded snippets. Using the Smart Aerial with the Smart Pro makes
ID48 and ID46 transponder coding a breeze.
Settings
The settings icon is the rightmost in the bottom row of the
display. This Smart Pro icon is useful for changing things you picked in the
initial setup, such as region or language. Additionally, this is where the
Wi-Fi settings are located. If you move around with your Smart Pro, you may
find yourself reaching for this icon often.
Updates
The Smart Pro update icon is reasonably self-explanatory.
Clicking this icon will prompt your Smart Pro to check for available updates.
These updates help keep your Smart Pro secure. They also update the onboard
database.
My SmartPro
My SmartPro accesses your account and displays the status
from your account. Depending on your chosen plan type, you may see your token
amount or your subscription information. You must keep track of this
information and purchase the appropriate token option so that you can continue
using your Smart Pro unhindered.
My Previous Vehicles
The My Previous Vehicles icon is a time saver on your Smart
Pro. This icon allows you to access a log of the last vehicles programmed, so
if you’re doing a batch, it’s more efficient. You can also use it like a
favorites menu and avoid needing to use the vehicle search function on your
Smart Pro display. That convenience is priceless.
