6.2 USB Power Menu
Connecting a USB cable between a powered USB port on a personal computer (PC) and the scan
tool powers up the scan tool and opens the USB Communications menu. The three buttons
available on the menu are defined in the table below:
6.2.1 Connect to PC
The Connect to PC selection is used with the optional ShopStream Connect™ software. which
lets you view data files on a personal computer, transfer files between the scan tool and PC, and
download software updates from the PC to the scan tool. ShopStream Connect is a free software
program that can be downloaded from the Internet at: http://diagnostics.snapon.com/SSC.
All operations are controlled through the PC when operating in this mode. Tap anywhere on the
scan tool screen to disconnect it from the PC and return to the USB Menu.
6.2.2 Software Update
Select Software Update and the scan tool searches the internet for any software updates that are
available for the unit. An “Install Wizard” window opens on the PC if software updates are found.
Follow the on-screen instructions to install the update.
6.2.3 Tools
The Selecting Tools opens a menu of special functions for performing test and repair procedures
on the scan tool. With the exception of Touch Screen Calibration (see Touch Screen Calibration on
page 45) these features should only be used when instructed to do so by a Customer Care
representative. Incorrect use may severely damage the tool and make it inoperative.
