The next two tabs are for graphing, one for two graphs, and one for four. The Live Data Meter gives nine large retro-LCD style displays, and each display has a units symbol below it to let you know what unit the PID is measured in and a drop-down box below that to select the PID that you want displayed. The next four tabs are all for live data display and graphing.
The Diagnostic Trouble Codes tab offers reading and clearing functionality to the connected module and all other modules supported for the vehicle, this tab, in my experience, will try to refresh itself from time to time with a popup asking to pull codes from the selected module, all modules, or none this is the same behavior that happens upon initially connecting to the vehicle, and can be somewhat annoying in my opinion.

There are nine main areas to the software once you have connected to the vehicle. There is a bit of a learning curve to the AE software, as it does pack quite a bit of functionality into its interface. Case in point on this note would be the door control modules of a 2003 Mercedes-Benz CL500 as of software version 12.0. Also, during module selection, just because the tool has a controller listed for a vehicle, that does not mean that it is capable of communicating with that module, contrary to AE tech support. Once this process has finished you will have an option to scan the currently selected module for codes, all vehicle modules, or not scan any modules at this time. Once the vehicle’s information is supplied and a controller selected to connect to, then the tool goes through a process of detecting supported PID’s, which can be time consuming on some cars. This Auto ID strategy is the same as the OTC Genisys Touch, unlike the SnapOn Solus Ultra where you usually have to enter a make and year for the tool to decide whether or not it will grace you with an Auto ID function.
The software will try to Auto ID any vehicle that you connect to, which I like having the option of from the beginning.

This is usually corrected by redoing your connections and restarting the software and trying to do everything in a very picky order.Īfter hookup comes vehicle identification, by manual or automatic means. The issues most commonly dealt with are the software saying that it cannot connect to the VCI or that it is unable to detect the vehicle’s protocol. After installing the software and getting everything activated, you just hook the AE Scan Tool to the computer, to the car, start the software, and hope that everything is working correctly to this point and continues to work correctly going forward.

You will require a Windows PC to use with this tool. There is also a Porsche cup car cable that I am unfamiliar with. If you get the enhanced options then you can also get a BMW 20-pin connector, Mercedes-Benz 38-pin connector, and Nissan DDLI connector. The AE Scan Tool consists of the ProLine VCI pictured above, software CD, and a USB cable. This is a tool that remains in my toolbox for the fact that when I need it, it’s absolutely wonderful, but if I don’t absolutely have to have it, it stays tucked away in the darkest corner of my box.
The AE Scan Tool is very powerful, but can also be the most obnoxious tool you have ever used.
