When using IDS v132 software or the latest FDRS software, the system prompts that the VCI Device Manager must be updated to the latest version. After the update, running IDS v132 or FDRS software with the VNCI VCM3 will result in failure to establish communication with the vehicle. This issue is caused by incompatibility between the current device firmware and the latest Ford VCI driver. The solution is as follows:

First, restore the VNCI VCM3 device to its factory settings.

4. Finally, open the VNCI Device Manager on the computer and upgrade the device firmware to the latest version.

Step1: Upgrade new version 

you have to install newest version vnci pt3g device manager and upgrade the vnci pt3g firmware to the latest version, as shown below picture.

new version now(2024-07-04)

VNCI Device manager v2.0

firmware version: 1.0.6.3

Step2:  Connect VNCI PT3G to the piwis software and switch to the USB cable wireless configuration state.

Step3:  Configure the WLAN connection and AP connection network information

1. WLAN connection information configured， as shown below picture

    ① select "VCI configuration->WLAN Infrastructure" menu

    ② enter your network name and passoword

    ③ This check box must be checked

    ④ After entering all the correct configuration information, click “Update VCI” button to save the configuration information

    ① select "VCI configuration->WLAN access point" menu

    ② Custom wireless network name(Default network name is “PTG_VCI_{device number}”) and password

    ③ This check box must be checked

    ④ After entering all the correct configuration information, click “Update VCI” button to save the configuration information

Step4:  Pairing the current computer PIWIS3 system and VNCI PTG configuration information ( Very important!  Very important!  Very important! )

After the WLAN connection and AP connection configuration information are configured, you need to perform the matching operation on the PIWIS3 software of the current computer to use VNCI PT3G wireless connection on the current computer.   Each time you replace the PIWIS computer, the VNCI PT3G wireless connection information must be matched again(important!!!   important!!!  important!!! )

As shown below picture

①select "VCI configuration->WLAN access point" menu

② Click "perform pairing now" button

③ If the pairing is successful, here is a  "✔"，   if the pairing is unsuccessful here is  "X"

Step5: Disconnect usb port, Restart PIWIS3 software

1. Wirless connection by WLAN infranstructure

     ①Ensure that the current computer is connected to the network as same as the VNCI PT3G WLAN configuration network

     ②connect VNCI PT3G to your car or OBD16 power supply, Press and hold the VNCI PT3G button until the led light status changes, as shown bellow picture

                                                                        WLAN Infranstructure connection LED light two status

   ③When VNCI PT3G connect to PIWIS3 software by WLAN Infranstructure , The VNCI PT3G make a deep sounds, and piwis3 software will show wireless connection icon, as shown bellow picture

 1. Wirless connection by WLAN Access point connection mode

① Connect VNCI PT3G to your car or OBD16 power supply, Press and hold the VNCI PT3G button until the led light status changes, as shown bellow picture.

When you use SDD2 software on windows10/11 system,  it will have the following problems

"Your browser does not support PAGMCP ActiveX controls"

or

“SDD software updates have not been performed so functionality has been disabled. Click here to perform updates now”

The above problem is very easy to solve, this problem is caused by the Edge browser does not add the IE compatibility mode, we only need to add the IE compatibility mode to the Edge browser.

Step1:

Open the Edge browser, then select Browser Settings at the top right of the browser, and select "Default Browser" at the left of the browser Settings.  As shown in the following picture。

Then add the following content in IE compatibility mode, as shown in the following picture:

http://localhost/splash_screen.action;jsessionid=4etah

http://localhost:8080/

After the addition is complete, exit the browser and start the JLR SDD software again. The above two error messages will not appear

If your VNCI PT3G device is unable to connect to your PIWS3 software, it can be sure that your PIWIS3 software driver has been tampered with. 

The tampered driver needs to be changed back to the PIWIS3 OEM driver. 

Restoring the PIWIS3 OEM driver is simple and requires only two steps

Step 1: Replace the driver file

Step 2: Execute the PIWIS OEM Driver Registry

VNCI Bosch series products operate synchronously

Sync:  Synchronize the current computer VCI driver to the VNCI device so that the currently connected VNCI device can recognize the latest VNCI driver 

on the current computer.

Operation:

Step 1: Install the current device VCI Device Manager software

Step 2: Install the VNCI Device Manager software

Step 3: Start the VNCI Device Manager software to complete the VNCI device synchronization with the current computer VCI device manager

Step 4: Start the VCI Device Manager software on the current computer to recognize the current VNCI device without update prompt.

VNCI Bosch series of diagnostic products currently include VNCI MDI2 General Motors second generation diagnostic tool, VNCI RNM Nissan, Renault, Mitsubishi diagnostic tool, VNCI JLR DoIP Jaguar Land Rover diagnostic tool, VNCI VCM3 Ford Mazda diagnostic tool, VNCI diagnostic tool. VNCI VDI3 Roewe Wuling MG Maxus automotive diagnostic tool, VNCI 6516SZ Suzuki diagnostic tool. VNCI Bosch series diagnostic tools support usb connection, AP connection (wifi point-to-point connection) and WLAN station connection (wifi wireless LAN connection), VNCI Bosch series diagnostic products are compatible with Bosch original diagnostic software drivers. The VNCI Bosch diagnostic tool can replace the original Bosch series of diagnostic tools.

When your PIWIS3 software cannot connect to the original PT3G/PT4G device or cannot connect to the VNCI PT3G device, your PIWIS3 software driver is tampered with or replaced. At this time, we need to restore the original PIWIS3 driver to normally connect the original PT3G/PT4Gs and VNCI PT3G devices.

The steps to restore the original PIWIS3 driver are as follows:

1. Download the original driver (the current driver version is v3.5.6)

2. Open the PIWIS3 driver location, delete all files below the location, and copy the original driver file to the location.

PIWIS3 driver location path:  D:/PiwisApps/VCI/Actia_64/XS_D_PDU_API_64/

3. Copy the following registry contents to a text file with a.reg suffix, and double-click the file to run it.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREACTIA I+ME GmbHPT3G-VCIModule VersionsXS_D_PDU_API_64]
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREACTIA I+ME GmbHPT3G-VCIModule VersionsXS_D_PDU_API_64.5.6]

"Module Name"="D-PDU-API"

4. Finally, connect the VNCI PT3G or the original PT3G/PT4G device, run the ACTIA_D-PDU_API_Tester.exe program, click Start to run, all communication protocols are completely passed, indicating that the original device driver is fully restored to normal, as shown below:

When you install the SDD and JLR driver software, you find that the SDD software does not recognize the VNCI JLR DoIP device. The main cause of this problem is that the SDD software system disables VNCI JLR DoIP.

To solve this problem, we just need to modify the SDD configuration file,  it is very easy to do it.

Step1:

installing the SDD software and JLR device manager

Step2: 

Open  "C:Program Files (x86)/JLR/SDD/Runtime" folder

looking for  "GatewayManager.ini" file and edit it

Before editing the file

After editing the file

Step3:

Open  "C:Program Files (x86)/JLR/IDS/Runtime" folder

looking for  "GatewayManager.ini" file and edit it

Edit the file as in Step2

Save the both files and running your sdd software, Your SDD software will be able to recognize VNCI JLR DoIP devices.
