HOW TO DO - SDS(STAR DIAGNOSTICS) ON APPLE IPAD


DO - SDS(STAR DIAGNOSTICS) ON APPLE IPAD
I always found the IBM laptops a little bulky to diagnose cars with Star diagnostic tool, unless they are stationary on a cart. 
 
If you are out in the field or at meets / track days you would want something portable and preferably with a touch-screen interface. 
 
The SDS laptop acts as a wireless access point with the built int WiFi card and the iPad connects to the laptop. The multiplexer is attached to the laptop as one convenient system. You plug the laptop into the car and close the lid, everything else is done through the iPad, and you have decent range as far as wireless communication goes.
 
Also, since the laptop and the iPad are running LMI software, if you have a 3G internet connection you can have someone remotely login to the SDS laptop, say from the shop, and diagnose the vehicle with you.
