SSC Transfer Problems
Hi David. Sorry You are having such trouble. Can you read Just Your CF Card with just your computer? What operating system are you using for windows? I use XP PRO and have no trouble with it. If You Can read Your card then use the sample I sent you to open up Shopstream connect folder and just drag what filed you want to the proper place like Vp or SP file folder, once they are there you can open ssc and the files you put there will show. Have Fun. AustinComment

Hi David
I run XP, home and pro on my computers.
I have stuck a 1-gig Kingston usb in the machine and selected the "save to" to the usb. I also selected jpgs instead of bitmaps.
I just yank the usb out (when the machine is shut off), stick it into my computer(s), go into windows explorer and copy the saved files into folders I create under the Vantage-Pro-Files\USER\DATA\xxnamexx\xxvehiclexx\xxsystemxx, etc.
In windows explorer you see the old "dos-tree" which allows you to see the files and it's then easy to see what files were created on which day and time so you can just select the files from that vehicle.

Vantage Pro & secondary ignition hook up
Hi anyone please advise.
I have just recieved from my snap on dealer the secondary ignition coil testers, the type I have you just hold them over the top of each coil when testing, there are two in series.
The problem I have here with the VP is that it came with no manual and no CD, as my dealer said there was none with it
I have read the online 2009 info but this does not show how to hook up the accessories, and as others have had problems on this forum thinking incorrect hook up may have damaged the VP, I don't want to end up the same
Can anyone please advise what the correct channel(s) are for this hook up, and which leads to use, I.e. Blue, yellow, green etc.
Thanks

Secondary
Hi David
You should have a secondary ignition adapter.You Hook Up the cop adapter that is needed and plug into channel one, Yellow. Then black goes to the common ground.You should also have a black lead wire with a clip on it. Attach that to a known good ground. Select component test,then ignition testing,from there secondary ignition test.That will give a preset you then set your machine to direct, one cylinder. Hope this works for you.Have FunComment

Hi Hefaus
I have looked at your illustrations, ours are slightly different in different locations, but after observing yours I have found ours , however, following our instructions 'On Screen' I am asked to connect the Yelow lead to the yellow channel, and the Black lead to the black channel, black clip to ground. (So from this I have located the correct leads). Then the instructions say to connect the 'RCA' lead to the COP adapter.
My problem
The COP adapter I have is not a single plug COP adapter?
The COP adapter I have has the facilities to check 'Two' Spark plug circuits at the same time, i.e. wasted spark systems.
But my misunderstanding is;
When I connect the COP adapter to the RCA lead, what do I do with the opposite end of my COP lead which has a male end plug going nowhere???
Any ideas greatly appreciated
Thanks

Adapter
Hi David. All the adapters I have just plug into my secondary coil adapter lead. It has the male end and the adapters have a female end..Are you saying that the one you have will do a waste ignition system? Like one positive and one negative? Are you talking about Flag pickups maybe? I am not certain on what you have. What is the snap on number maybe I can try and find out what it looks like from here. Maybe someone else has some ideas.I did have a snap on system that did do waste spark ignition and it had the positive and the negative connections. It was a snap on #eeta309a15 Secondary Ignition adapter.Can you send even a picture of what you have? maybe someone else knows something that can help. Maybe the male end that is not hooked up may be a way of connecting more pickups to so you would be able to do more than 2 cylinders. I do see a 3 flag pickup with a male end left over and it says to connect say 2 to be able to do a six cylinder. The snap on number I am referring to is #eac0056L02a. I hope this is what you are talking about. Keep smilingComment

Adapter
Hi David. I have never used a flag type pickup.I would imagine you would get 2 secondary patterns out of it if it does 2 coils at once. If the open end looks like it could cause a problem, maybe just cap it and then start playing with your new toy.I am sure others here have used flag type pickups and could share some hints on using them. The Vantage Pro is fun to learn, just be careful no wires are on hot melting places. EnjoyComment

Audi ABS
Have managed to save a file on the VP, Scanlines instructed how to load to SSC, which has worked. If it loads up now, here is a picture of my two rear wheels ABS sensors operation. The GREEN is my Nearside rear wheel, and the Yellow is my offside rear wheel.
Just to be clear;
Nearside is UK Kerbside, on a right hand drive vehicle its the left hand side.
Offside is the right hand side drivers side.
