X-431 PAD Launch Tech is based on new high-end automotive fault diagnostic device Android system, the heritage of the company to the automotive fault diagnosis technology models covering a broad, powerful, special features and more accurate test data and many other advantages, through the car diagnostic connector Bluetooth communication and mobile intelligent terminals, to achieve full product models, car fault diagnosis system-wide. While supporting the expansion module application scope, sensors, endoscopy, multimeter, battery detection.

Launch Tech has adopted the performance and usability of tablet computing with this new piece of kit, making it one of the most user-friendly and accessible they have produced. Of course, being a Launch X431, it is the result of more than twenty years’ experience in vehicle diagnostics and displays all of the high performance functionality which has made their previous X431 tools so popular.

Launch UK has released a new Android-based diagnostic tool. The touch-screen X431 Euro Pad II uses the same vehicle diagnostic software as previous Launch X431 scan tools, but also features improved multi-manufacturer vehicle coverage, powerful special functions, accurate and ultra-fast live data and graphing, along with module coding capacities.Launch UK managing director, Dave Richards, believes the automotive aftermarket has come a long way in embracing diagnostics, but that workshops require more support in order to offer a complete solution as one piece of kit is no longer enough to offer the best possible service and coverage.

Version 2.06 K-TAG introduces another brand new novelty — J-Tag communication for Asian cars. Unlike many ECU programming tools, with K-TAG you have at your disposal only the applications really need. Once you have the hardware, you can choose which group of protocols to enable and then start working. According to the manual, I connected K-TAG to the diagnostic OBD 16 pin port to install the software. The software displayed “Read the ECU” after installation. Then I closed the software when it successfully read the message. Finally, I was allowed to disconnect the K-TAG from the pin port.
