![]() The new IDS software will also warn the operator to connect the VCM 1 or VCM 2 for older models. VCM Pendants will also work with both models. The VCM 2, VCM 3 and the VCMM will reside together. The modern requirement is now the VCM 3 with the latest IDS installation. It's no different than updating IDS and finding out later, the VCM 1 can not connect to vehicle beyond MY 2016. Therefore, if the data within the IDS matches the internal xml files of the model being tested, the VCM 2 must also match the firmware associated with the IDS version. The Bosch VCM 2 will accomplish an internal selftest while connecting to the newer versions of IDS. They are using someone else's "underwear".Īt the end of the day, take a chance on a "flash up date" but be prepared for the "bricks to fall out of the sky". Most VCM 2 clones are the vxdiag boards inside the VCM 2 case and basically an emulator. The clones will also fail in the most dramatic fashion when connecting to F250 and beyond because of internal "BUS Timing". These so called "patches" work to a point and only loads an emulation.Ĭlones are also suseptable to "update flash" internal failures. ![]() If the VCM 2 is a clone, it's likely blacklisted especially when using a newer versions of IDS.
