Universal Serial Bus (USB)
The MTS 6513 has a fixed USB configuration which
cannot be changed. This ensures that the MTS 6513
can always be connected to a single PC running the VCI
Manager software so you can configure LAN or WLAN
settings required by your local network. In addition, it
is important to note that a USB connection is required
to configure and update the firmware on the MTS 6513
VCI.

The 802.11 b/g/n WLAN connection on the MTS 6513
is set up and configured while the device is connected
over USB to a PC running the VCI Manager software.

VCI Manager Software
The VCI Manager software is a host computer applica-
tion which runs on the Microsoft Windows operating
system to configure and update VCIs. The VCI Manager
software allows the configuration of VCI-to-host PC

J2534 Pass-Thru Support
The MTS 6513 works with an OEM supplied J2534 PC
computer applications (PC program) for ECU Reflashing

The MTS 6513 supports pass-thru programming of
the flash calibration files that are stored in a vehicle
onboard controller (e.g., PCM, ABS, VTD). Refer to

supplied J2534 PC application.
The MTS 6513 design is based on the SAE J2534
Pass-Thru and ISO 22900 Modular Vehicle Interface

le with other software applications that use these API
standards.
