2. On the vmware workstation home menu select “open a Virtual machine”. Navigate to the DIS V57-

V44CIP-TIS ENG VM folder on your computer and select the “DIS V57-V44CIP-TIS ENG.vmx” configuration file. Then Click “open”.

3. Select the DIS tab in VMware and click “power on this virtual machine” to start the boot process. A message will now appear saying “This virtual machine might have been moved or copied”. Click “ I copied it”.

4. Now leave your computer alone and allow it to boot up (may take a few minutes). It should now boot to the DIS main screen.

Note: If it doesn’t boot to main screen and it just shows a blank screen for a long time then “right click” on the DIS tab, scroll to power > reset.

5. Go back to your running WINXP INPA vmware and run “IFHSRV32.EXE” program using the icon on the desktop.

Note: If DIS VMware has captured your mouse pointer then hold down Ctrl + Alt key to release it.

6. Start the Diaghead emulator from the “Diaghead” shortcut on the desktop & click “run”.

7. Now go back to your running DIS VMware. Go to full screen mode. Click “Administration”. Then on the admin menu click “Connection setup”. You should now see your free emulated diagnostic head.

8. Click the “Connecting” Button. It should now connect. The emulator in WINXP INPA VM should show connected.

9. Connect your INPA cable to your car and make sure its’ icon is active in the WINXP INPA VM. If it’s not active then “right click” on the icon and select connect (disconnnect from host).

10. Now you can go to the DIS main screen and start diagnosing and fixing your car.

You can view the technical documents by selecting TIS from the menu (you do not need to have the emulator running or the cable connected to your car to use the TIS section). Before shutting down the DIS software, please read the note below and advice section. Note: to safely shutdown the DIS software it is recommended that you use the following method. a) Go to administration. Then on the DIS menu select “calibrating touch shield”. b) Enter 12345 as the password. c) On the “Easy-Dis” menu type in 0 and press “enter” to shutdown.

Advice Note 1

After you have set everything up the first time I recommend that you take a VMware snapshot. This will enable you to do a fast start of DIS next time. Go back to DIS main screen. Right click on the DIS tab, scroll to snapshot and click “take snapshot”. Label it “Fast start DIS”.

To do a fast start “right click” on the DIS tab then go to snapshot > 1. Fast start Dis. It should load up in less than 30 seconds.

Once you have set up your Diaghead connection for the first time you should not have to do it again the next time you start DIS. All you have to do is:

Advice Note 2

a) Load up the DIS VMware image (normal start up or from snapshot) b) Start the IFHSRV32.exe program from the WINXP INPA VM c) Start the diaghead emulator from the WINXP INPA VM and click “run”. It should now connect to

DIS automatically. d) Connect INPA cable to car.
