What do I need to make my Tech 2 work on a 2007 9-3 ?
Being primarily a 9000 guy for many years, I caved in and bought a used Vetronix Tech 2 after we got our first 9-5 a couple of years ago. I have successfully used the Tech 2 for code read/reset, adjusting various parameters, run-time monitoring of various things, T7 throttle calibration, and key transponder and remote marriages. This on our first 9-5, another 9-5 we got more recently, and on several 9-5s and early 9-3s (10MB card with v.43) belonging to friends and acquaintances, so I'm pretty familiar with using it as a stand-alone tool.
However, I hear that a Tech 2 can't be used as a stand-alone tool for a lot of things on the new 9-3, requiring interfacing with a PC. Don't know what software needs to be on the PC, where/how to get it, and if that software can function stand-alone or needs to actively communicate with some company server or database on some sort of subscription basis. I need to learn a lot more about all this. I know I'll need to start with an up-to-date 32MB PCMCIA card (which software version is best ?), and I think I need the CanDi module too (?).
Thanks for any and all input.
