There is a port on the side of pro5. The port is used to charge the battery. You can also connect it with USB through an OTG adapter.

Case 2:

X431 Pro5 has built-in BMW and Benz online programming. Some users reported that E series onling coding/programming goes fine, but failed to program F series online, i.e

failed to program F series BMW 525d 2014 and BMW 535d, F series 2013 (error Ethernet Communication Test Failed).

To program BMW F series you’d better connect ENET cable via USB instead of wireless mode.

Using otg cable for good connection. It’s going to work.

There is an Ethernet cable in the package.

Case 3:

When need to transfer data from Lauch X431 Pro 5 tablet to PC, you can connect via USB cable. This also requires an OTG adapter.

Launch X431 V+ or PIWIS-III for Porsche Diagnosis?

I have the Launch X431 V+ Pros Mini which I purchased new from obdii365 for $1079. I also have a PIWIS III clone V38.90 that i purchased from another website for $1429. I purchased the Launch X431 V+ with the intent of using it to flash a used control module for my car. When I discovered that the Launch X431 V+ could not do that I purchased a PIWIS III clone with the intention of selling the Launch X431 V+ but I have not got around to selling it yet because it is so much easier to use then the PIWIS III.Here is what I have done so far with each one. Launch X431 V+ : Cleared all the fault codes stored in the car. Activated the Aux setting in PCM (PCM/CDR) I had to add an aux cable to the PCM to make use of this one. Changed the number of flashes for one touch turn signal from 3 to 5 (Front-end Electronics) Activated Comfort entry windows up/down via keyfob (Front-end Electronics) Changed the speed when the doors auto lock, 3 mph to 20 mph (Front-end electronics) Changed the speed when...
