ACI SCANNER Introduction

ACI Auto Communication Interface is 100% compatible with AUTO ENGIUITY OE-LEVEL software, Support all Enhanced Options

ACI Scan Tool is a professional PC diagnostics scan tool for all OBDII (OBD2) and EOBD IV+ compliant vehicles. ACI Scan Tool allows you to read the vehicle's diagnostic trouble codes,  live  vehicle  sensors  (including  wide-band  O2  sensors),  actuate  bi-directional controls,  reset  adaptations,  and  view  inspection/maintenance  system  test  results  to  quickly determine what service the vehicle requires.   

What ACI OBD2 Scan Tool can do for you?   

Professional Diagnostics 

In the professional repair business getting as much coverage as you can is important to effectively and quickly service any vehicle. We offer enhanced coverage options for 43 car brands:    Ford/Lincoln/Mercury,  GM-family, Chrysler family Toyota/Lexus/Scion, Mazda, Nissan/Infiniti, BMW/MINI, Land Rover, Honda/Acura, Subaru, Mitsubishi, Isuzu, Porsche, Mercedes, Hyundai/Kia, Jaguar, and Audi/VW. 

Not Simple Code Reader 

So you read your vehicle's trouble codes, now what? Reading the trouble codes from your vehicle is easy. But without live data and bi-directional controls, you may not have enough information to properly perform the repair. Don't waste your time or money with simple code readers or hand-held scanners. ACI OBD2 scan tool can not only read your codes, but it can also show you live data, actuate components, and  run system tests. With complete coverage, you can get the job done right the first  time and prevent dreaded "comeback".     

NA Emissions and European MOT 

You may have known that almost all states are using OBD2-based emission testing for all 1996 and newer passenger vehicles? Now with the 2010 legislation, even the  8500 - 10000lb trucks are required to be OBD2 complaint. If you have a Check Engine or Service Engine Soon indicator illuminated, or a specific inspection system monitor test fails, your vehicle will fail its emissions test. With ACI OBD2 scan tool you can inspect your vehicle’s compliance before you wait in line and pay for the test. 

Tuning Your Vehicle 

Read live sensors such as wide-band O2 sensors, fuel adaptation, MAF, ignition timing advance, and lambda readings. If your vehicle supports wide-band O2 sensors, Scan Tool can show you real-time air/fuel mixtures. Finally, data log them all in TXT, CSV, and XML formats with 1ms sampling accuracy. 

Performance Analyzer 

Don't buy into claims of increased horsepower or added torque; you can verify whether that new, expensive part really works. Do your own dynamometer and acceleration testing at your own convenience and without having to rent expensive dynamometer time. 

OE-Level Coverage (Enhanced Interfaces) 

Independent service shops and vehicle tuners require more information than what OBDII can provide to do their job effectively. Since the OBDII standard covers   only emissions-related powertrain systems and sensors, there is more information you won't be able to see with a generic OBDII scan tool. With our enhanced interface options, you can get factory tool-like capabilities; allowing you to access hundreds of systems (ABS, airbags,  instrument  cluster,  etc.),  sensors,  and  system/component-level  bi-directional controls so you can do your job faster and with a greater degree of accuracy. 

ACI supports non-OBDII and European models. For example, due to their  excessive vehicular weight trucks like the Ford Super Duty, Chevy Duramax, and  Dodge are not required to be OBDII compliant. But with our enhanced interface options you can now access the diagnostics capabilities of these vehicles. 

For our European customers, our enhanced interface options also support Audi/VW, BMW, Chrysler/Dodge, Ford, Jaguar, Mercedes, and Toyota/Lexus diesel engines  and the European-specific models.

Our enhanced Audi/VW interface supports hundreds of sensors selected from the engine, transmission, ABS, airbag, and dozens of other systems. To help facilitate ease-of-use for this interface, we've allowed users to select as many sensors as they want. We also do not  require  that  certain  sensor  groups  to  be  selected  in  specific  orders.  We've  also extended our support by allowing module coverage to be externally added by way of the Audi Information File (AIF). These files can be generated during a network test or during a module sensor mapping test and help extend the over all coverage of the interface untill such coverage can be built into the software. Many of the features that Audi/VW features offer  are  not  consistent  with  other  manufactures  (i.e.  Ford,  GM)  as  they  do  not  offer component-level actuations and the sensors vary based on installed modules. Like most aftermarket Audi/VW tools, some of the sensor descriptions are missing, but data values can still be retrieved with basic descriptions. It is therefore strongly recommend to use a service manual alongside our tool while working on these vehicles. 

Enhanced interface for Mercedes (EI17) 1998-2010 

Our  enhanced  Mercedes  interface  supports  thousands  of  sensors  and  hundreds  of  bi-directional controls for systems such as DME, EGS, ABS, AAC, BAS, SRS, WSS, EWS, CGW,  ICM,  DAS,  MRM,  LCP,  UCP,  OCP,  SAM,  and  dozens  more  body  and  chassis controllers.
