What does IMMO application exactly mean?
The IMMO application requires a data link to the IMMO electronic control system of the test vehicle for diagnosis via OBD II connection. The application retrieves vehicle IMMO information and performs IMMO related functions, including Key Learning, Remote Control Learning, Remote Control Add, etc.
There are two options available when accessing the IMMO section:
Smart Mode – accesses to a function menu where each function is configured as a smart guide system.
Expert Mode – accesses to a function menu where each function is separated from each other.
After a mode is selected and the tablet establishes communication with the vehicle, the corresponding function menu or selection menu displays.
Two modes described in detail as below:
