SDRM Certification: Today OEMs are mandating users to complete the Secure
Data Release Model (SDRM) certification to obtain a Locksmith I.D. number
(VSP), before providing access codes to the immobilizer systems on many cars to-
day. CAS is fully SDRM/LSID certified and provides assistance in the areas of key
coding and immobilizer access to our customer base.
Balanced Billing Programs: Many shops have multiple scanners today and with
multiple scanners come multiple subscriptions to track and pay for when they ex-
pire. At CAS, we offer a 10 month ‘TAS Balanced Billing’ program. Shops are pro-
vided an annual chart on every scan tool’s subscription term and cost. They then
simply sign up for ‘Total Annual Support’ Balanced Billing and are charged 1/10th
of the annual fee each month. Balanced Billing maintains control over cash flow.
Warranty Extensions: All CAS customers who extend their TAS support package
after the 1st year are also provided with hardware warranty extensions on all their
scan tools. Warranty coverage service includes: Hardware (laptops, scanners, inter-
face modules), software (Windows & scan tool software), service loaners and all
shipping costs. The only non covered items are leads and batteries. TAS warranty
extensions fix the total cost of ownership, all year, with no surprise repair bills.
100% Money Back Guarantee: It’s so simple, 100% money back guarantee on all
purchases for any reason. Simply contact us within the 1st 30 days after delivery
and ask….It’s that simple !

GENERAL MOTORS
GM MDI/GDS2 - The MDI-2 when combined with the Global Diagnos-
tic System 2 (GDS2) software application allows servicing of GM's Global Architec-
ture Platform (Global A) vehicles. Model coverage starts with 2010 Buick LaCrosse,
2010 Cadillac SRX, 2010 Camaro, 2010 Equinox, 2011 Chevrolet Volt, 2011 Chevro-
let Cruze, 2010 GMC Terrain and 2011 Buick Regal. All other 2010/11 vehicles are
MDI‐2 serviced with the either a Tech-2 package or the Tech-2 Emulator software program.
& GDS‐2
The MDI-2 interface with the 'GDS-2' software, allows your shop to be 'dealer level'
capable on all the above listed GM cars. Scan, pull codes, graph data and have all the
bi-directional controls available for all vehicle systems including Powertrain, Body,
Chassis and Network. This tool will also allow you to re-program controllers provided
you have internet access on the host laptop and a GM ‘SPS’ account.
Tech-2/Candi - This was one of the most popular General Motors dealership
scanners! This self contained scan tool provides OEM level coverage starting with
the 1992 model year and continues up through 2013. In some truck series, it con-
tinues beyond 2013. Coverage does not include GM’s Global ‘A’ vehicles. Adding
the externally connected CANdi module enables the Tech-2 to communicate with
GM’s CAN protocol vehicles that started appearing in 2003. With an optional soft-
ware account through ACDelco, you are able to re-program all modules (with lim-
ited exceptions) on 1992 and newer GM vehicles. A PC is required with appropri-
ate interface ports to facilitate programming. There are no new vehicle coverages
on the Tech-2. As of 2018, all production and supply of Tech-2s was halted. These
are only available in limited quantities from existing CAS demo stock.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY
Integrated Diagnostic System - This is the current OEM tool
for all Ford / Lincoln / Mercury dealers. Introduced to the Ford dealers ser-
vice departments for model year 2005, the ‘IDS’ provides diagnostic cover-
age for all Ford vehicles from 1996 to current year. Our customized pack-
age includes the IDS VCM-II hardware and required cabling, plus the IDS
application software and an internet based subscription of re-flashing cali-
bration files and software updates for the IDS. All pre-installed into a Ford
Certified new Dell Latitude Series laptop. The entire package is
then packaged into a custom blow molded case with custom cut foam cush-
ioning for the laptop and IDS hardware and cabling.
At CAS we can customize a ‘Turnkey Package’ that will give you full
OEM level capabilities for these vehicle types. We can be reached by e-
mail via [email protected] or by calling us @ 1-877-263-4897
Reprogramming and Security issues with Ford vehicles - The need for
reprogramming is fairly common with the Ford line of vehicles. Additionally, a re-
programming process using ‘As Built Data’ to restore a controller to ‘Factory origi-
nal’ status can be performed with the Ford IDS package. Whether you are doing a
‘conventional’ Reflashing or using ‘As Built’ data, one of the important parts of the
process is maintaining the battery system voltage at a minimum level. This is typi-
Ford IDS for programming and keys cally done by connecting a ‘Reflashing Power Supply’ to the vehicles battery.

CHRYSLER / DODGE / JEEP
wiTech Diagnostic Application 2.0: There is probably no
OEM tool line up that has seen more changes than the Chrysler’s OEM
tooling. The original Chrysler tools for years were the DRB-III and the ‘Co
-Pilot’ (used for on-road snapshots). These tools were not CAN capable. In
2003 Chrysler developed the ‘StarScan’ dedicated handheld device and the
‘StarMobile’ interface used with the laptop based StarMobile ‘Desk Top
Client’ software. By 2009, Chrysler had decided to discontinue the
StarScan device in favor of another laptop interface device, the ‘WiPod’. In
2017 FCA introduced the latest version of their diagnostic software, the
‘WiTech Diagnostic Application 2.0’ that only operates with later produc-
tion MicroPod interface devices. Call CAS for further details.

HONDA / ACURA
Honda Diagnostic System - Both Honda and Acura use
the same PC based application in their dealerships. With the cor-
rect Vehicle Interface Device and the Honda Diagnostic System
program installed on a properly configured laptop, any aftermarket
shop can achieve dealer level diagnostic capabilities. Honda, like a
number of other OEM’s, have continued to develop new interface
devices for various reasons. Currently an aftermarket shop can run
the HDS app with either the MVCI interface or the DST-i interface
device. At CAS we have sold, installed and currently support hun-
dreds of these Honda dealer level tools. Call us to place an order
or answer any other questions you might have on this car line tool!
GNA-600 vs. MVCI vs. DST-i interface device - Honda had tran-
sitioned from the GNA-600 interface device to the MVCI interface in 2014. In
2017 they introduced a second interface device, the DST-i. While the MVCI origi-
nally had the ability to load calibration files onto the MVCI, the DST-i does not.
With recent changes to the HDS application the MVCI device no longer has files
loaded to it but instead works in a pass-thru mode during reprogramming similar to
the DST-i. Both the MVCI and the DST-1 work with the Honda HDS application.
Current GNA-600 users can migrate over to the MVCI or DST-i through CAS. If
you are a current GNA-600 user running an outdated version of HDS, call us or ask
your local CAS Automotive Consultant for further details on your options for get-
ting up to date.
Security - Honda and Acura incorporate the use of both ‘IN’ codes and ‘PIN’
codes when accessing the immobilizer system. Adding keys, changing an ECM
or troubleshooting almost any immobilizer system cannot be done with out access
to these codes. A locksmith license is required for shops to retrieve codes on their
own. If a shop does not have the locksmith certification, CAS can assist shops at
no charge when they are covered under our TAS Program®.

TOYOTA / LEXUS
TechStream Lite - This is the current OEM offered solution for any
shop wanting dealer level diagnostics for Toyota/Lexus and Scion vehicles.
Starting with model year 1996, this laptop based OEM tool gives one the
full dealer level diagnostics and reprogramming capabilities. Our custom-
ized package includes one of two optional J-2534 interface devices and re-
quired interface cabling, plus the TechStream Lite software application.
The TechStream Lite application comes with a one year subscription that
includes both re-flashing calibration files and updates. All pre-installed into
a new Dell Latitude Series or Panasonic ToughBook Series laptop. The en-
tire package is then packaged into a custom designed storage/transport case
to house the laptop, J-2534 interface hardware and associated cabling.
Security - Toyota and Lexus limit access to the security side of their vehicles to the
dealer network, registered locksmiths and certified shops. Adding keys, changing
ECMs or troubleshooting almost any immobilizer system cannot be done with out this
level of access. If your shop does not have locksmith certification, CAS can provide
assistance when you are covered under our CAS ‘Total Annual Support’ Program®.

NISSAN / INFINITY
Consult-III Plus is the latest version OEM tool for servicing
the Nissan/Infinity car lines. This tool has very strict hardware re-
quirements in that it has only available on a Nissan ‘Custom Model’
Panasonic brand Toughbook. The OEM application will now load to
other appropriately configured PC, so all Consult-III Plus packages
are typically offered as ‘Turnkey Packages’ which include the
‘Nissan’ version Panasonic Toughbook. Updates are typically being
released every 90 days, to keep the tool up to date. Calibration files
are purchased on an as-needed basis. Call us for further details, we
speak fluent ‘scan-tool’. 1-877-263-4897 M-F 8:30 am till 5:00 pm.
Security and Access Codes - Nissan limits the access to the security side of their
vehicles to their dealer network, registered locksmiths and SDRM certified shops. Even
when a shop owns the Consult-III Plus OEM package, there is still a need for ‘PIN’ codes
when servicing the security systems. If your shop does not have locksmith certification,
having these codes made available to you is the difference between finishing the job and
towing the vehicle to the local dealership. Speak with your CAS rep about the steps re-
quired for gaining access to this information.
CAS T.A.S. - The Consult III Plus, like all scan tools offered by CAS, is covered
under our industry changing Total Annual Support Program®. No Charge Service
Loaners, Technical Support, Subscription Reminder Notices, Balanced Billing option for
software renewals, hardware warranty extensions and a 100% Money back guarantee are
all part of our T.A.S. Program!
Reprogramming issues with Nissan/Infinity - The need for reprogramming is typically limited
to the PCM/TCM on these car lines. Usually, a TSB or Recall Notice provides the reason for a needed Reflash.
Nissan’s current strategy is to charge a ‘calibration fee’ whenever a calibration file is required for a vehicle ser-
vice. The Consult-III+ OEM tool does not include calibration files. Please note, that in all cases of reprogram-
ming on Nissan vehicles, a Reflashing Power Supply is considered a necessary tool to have.

HYUNDAI / KIA
Hyundai/KIA- Both Hyundai and Kia dealerships use virtually identi-
cal tablet based platforms but each with their own ‘GDS’ (Hyundai) and
’KDS’ (KIA) software applications. Built by GIT, the company that also
supplies CAS with the G-Scan2 and G-Scan3, these two OEM tools are de-
livered on a Samsung Galaxy Tablet S4 model
with a Bluetooth enabled interface device. Like
most OEM scan tools, the software application is

Bluetooth enabled interface
device from CAS. Call us for further details at 1-877-263-4897 or visit us on the
web at www.oemtools.com.
Security and Access Codes - Hyundai and Kia limit the access to the security
side of their vehicles to their dealer network, registered locksmiths and SDRM certified
shops. Additionally, there are ‘variant’ codes required when programming the SRS in these
vehicles. CAS, in conjunction with support from GIT America, can provide our customers
with many of the required access codes. If your shop does not have their locksmith certifi-
cation, having these codes made available to you is the difference between finishing the job
and sending it out to the local dealership. CAS provides assistance in accessing information
for all our customers when they are covered under our Total Annual Support Program®.
CAS T.A.S. - The G-Scan2 and G-Scan3 like all scan tools offered by CAS, are cov-
ered under our industry changing Total Annual Support Program®. No Charge Service
Loaners, Technical Support, Subscription Reminder Notices, Balanced Billing option for
software renewals and a 100% Money Back guarantee are all part of our T.A.S. Program!
Hyundai/KIA alternative scan tools - The Hyundai and Kia factory tools are built by the same company
that produces the G-Scan series of scan tools. Shops may consider purchasing one of the three G-Scan versions to
achieve great coverages at substantial savings from the OEM tools plus have USA, Asian and European coverage!
GM Tech-2 - Current owners of the GM Tech-2 can order two ‘kits’ to con-
vert their GM Tech-2 to a SAAB Tech-2. Speak with your CAS rep as this tool is in
very limited supply.
VOLVO ‘DICE’ - This OEM has a dedicated interface device named the
Volvo ‘DICE’. When coupled up with Volvo’s VIDA software subscription appli-
cation and a properly configured laptop, the aftermarket shop is fully enabled to ser-
vice the Volvo line of vehicles. Volvo’s VIDA subscription can include vehicle
model year updates for the application, calibration files and service information.
Shops are cautioned that setting up DICE/VIDA is very labor intensive and requires
the PC being used to have very exacting specs. Failure to meet Volvo’s specs will
cause the application to not install. Additionally, shops are advised this OEM’s sub-
scription is one of the higher priced per year to maintain. CAS offers this OEM ap-
plication as well as some lower cost alternative solutions for any aftermarket shop.
Call us to discuss ways to address the Volvo car line!

SUBARU
Subaru SSM Diagnostic Program: 1998 to present year cover-
age of Subaru vehicles is achieved with this PC based scan tool. Originally
service was performed with the SSM-III application which was the primary
SSM-III program covering model years 1998 through 2003. The SSM-4 application
was introduced to service model year 2004 up to the current model year.
SSM-4 The OEM package CAS delivers includes Subaru SSM-III and SSM-4 diag-
nostic software applications, a Denso DST-i interface with associated cables
and one year of updates. Updates are accomplished via an internet down-
load by the registered user.
The Subaru factory tool has an

integrated Lab Scope!
Security and Access Codes - Subaru limits the access to the security side of their vehicles to their dealer
network, registered locksmiths and SDRM certified shops. Security levels begin with model
year 2000 when Subaru requires the tool user to purchase key codes on either a single buy
basis or for a 24 hour unlimited usage period. If your shop does not have their locksmith/
SDRM certification, having these codes made available to you is the difference between fin-
ishing the job and sending it out to the local dealership. CAS provides remote assistance in
accessing information for all our customers when they are covered under our Total Annual Support Program®.
CAS T.A.S. - The Subaru SSM tool, like all scan tools offered by CAS is covered under our industry changing
Total Annual Support Program®. No Charge Service Loaners, Technical Support, Subscription Reminder Notic-
es, Balanced Billing option for software renewals, LSID support and a 100% Money back guarantee are all part of
our T.A.S. Program! Ask your local CAS rep for further details.
As with all other OEMs, when doing a re-flash on any of these vehicles, a ‘Reflashing Power Supply’ connected
to the vehicle battery prior to starting the calibration file download is strongly encouraged.

VW / AUDI
VW/Audi: At the end of 2014 the VW/Audi VAS system was supersed-
ed by the ODIS software application. Shops wishing to move up to this OEM
application can opt to have either VW or Audi or both licenses running on
the same laptop. With this new software release, the prior VAS users were
advised they could use their old interface device but the tool would not be
supported if there were technical issues. It was further recommended that the
shop move up to the newer 6154 Diagnostic Interface Kit.
ODIS Registration Requirements: Shop owners who are considering putting a VW/Audi ODIS
application into use should be warned of the documentation requirements and the time de-
lays this causes. Items requiring completion during and prior to having
their ODIS license issued are multiple. VW/Audi uses a 5+ step process
that requires among other items; a personal residence history of the owner
for the last 5 years. A security registration process that requires providing
two industry references. Hardware security locks that are to be installed
on the host PC prior to purchase/authorization. Proof of commercial business existence by providing copies of
letterhead and state required business licenses. All in all this results in a multi-week time
frame on initial installations. CAS has experience in these processes and can provide expedit-
ed installation assistance to any shop wishing to move into VW/Audi scan tools.

General Purpose Scan Tools
G-scan2 - Most shops have or should have a general purpose scan tool.
There are a number of possible choices from multiple vendors and manufactur-
ers. At CAS we have found that the G-scan2 provides the best overall price to
capabilities ratio. Vehicle line coverage includes Domestic, Asian and European
as well as commercial truck lines. With a hi-definition color touch screen, multi-
ple processors and an ‘Instant On’ feature, this is one fast, user friendly scanner!
G-scan2 capabilities also includes multi-meter, data graphing, 4 trace lab scope,
CAN line diagnostics and on-line wireless updates direct to the tool. The G-
scan2 can also act as a substitute for the factory tool for Hyundai/Kia car lines

Ferrari / Lamborghini / Bentley / Rolls Royce - These car lines, often referred to as the
‘Supercars’ present a unique challenge to the aftermarket repair shop specialists. OEM’s have to make their
factory tools available in the US but there are exceptions to the law. Generally speaking, if an OEM sells less
than 5,000 vehicles per year they are exempt from the ruling. Pretty much all the Supercar manufacturers fall
under this classification and therefore are not forced to make their tools available. Or if they do, as in the case
of Porsche, the pricing is so high, the majority of interested shops are put off. Enter TEXA, an Italian based
company that produces a ’Supercar’ scan tool to cover the Big 4 Supercars! CAS is an authorized distributor of
this specialty tool line and we can configure a package for your shops unique needs. Just call or click to get a

J-2534 Reprogramming
J-2534 - Mandated by the Federal government and defined by the Society of Automotive Engineers, J-2534-1
protocols were enacted and created to allow the independent aftermarket repair shop to reprogram when an emis-
sion related issue was present! J-2534-1 is now migrated to J-2534-II which allows for programming beyond
powertrain related issues. This option may make sense for some shops depending on their current scan tools. See
your CAS rep for details on what functions J-2534 allows and doesn’t allow. We do offer J-2534 solutions as a
stand alone interface device and as a ‘Turn Key’ package!

er Configurable Options. Diagnostic service information is not included with this product though it is availa-
ble as a separate purchase. This product requires a suitably configured PC and an interface device. As a Dell
and Panasonic reseller, CAS can provide a service facility with a ‘Turnkey International’ package. Please con-
tact your CAS rep for assistance in determining which products are appropriate for your needs.
Allison - CAS offers this software in multiple configurations based upon your service situation. If you

put Tests (when supported by the module) and the ability to set
‘Customer Configurable Options’. This product also includes di-
agnostic service information for Allison electronically controlled

a need for a suitably configured laptop and an appropriate inter-
face device to make use of this OEM application. CAS offers these OEM applications as well interface devic-
es and laptop packages which can be configured to run multiple HD applications. Please contact your CAS
rep for assistance in determining which product combination is appropriate for your facility.

General Purpose HD Truck Scanners
Commercial Vehicle Diagnostics - Even if you have the HD OEM
apps, every HD shop should have a general purpose diagnostic tool which will
allow communication with all modules in all HD vehicles. Since today’s vehicles
communicate using multiple protocols and networks, it is imperative for the tech-
nician to be able to quickly determine if the vehicle has network communication
issues. A seemingly unrelated area of the vehicle may be the root of the concern.
Not knowing these things can easily lead to wasted time and needless expense due
to throwing parts at the problem vehicle. Our HD software applications communi-
cate with all modules using the J-1708 & J-1939 network busses. CAS also offers
service information covering from Class 4 through Class 8 vehicles. Please con-
tact your CAS rep for assistance in determining which products fit your needs.
GM - Ford and other Medium Duty Applications: Obtaining all the software and hardware
devices for any shop servicing medium duty applications can be especially per-
plexing. Passenger cars, light trucks or vans typically have all electronic systems
handled by one tool. However, medium duty vehicles typically have multiple sys-
tems from various manufacturers. International engine electronics, Allison trans-
mission controllers, a separate body electronics package
and a Meritor WABCO braking system can all be found on one medium duty vehicle. The
moral of the story here is: These types of vehicles typically call for a multi-tool approach
if a shop wants to have full service capability. At CAS we are very well
versed on configuring the correct software applications with the proper

Tire Pressure Monitor Tools
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Tools - Although not
a scan tool in one sense, a TPMS tool is quite often used in conjunction
with the shop’s scanner to service TPMS systems. At CAS, we offer
the Bartec brand of TPMS tools. However, unlike most ‘TPMS Spe-
cialists’ selling these tools, we actually know how to use them and pro-
vide training on the tool’s operation. TPMS tools require software sub-
scriptions to keep the tools up to date and subscription renewals on an
annual basis. At CAS, we sell TPMS tools while providing training and
service support for your TPMS tool. Plus, we keep track of your sub-
scription and remind when your tool is due for an update!
