3.Operation

3.1.Power supply and tachograph type detection For all tachograph types, except for the K13xx/1318 and the FTCO1319, the Key Programmer is powered by the tachograph itself. An automatic tachograph type detection is executed on power ON, so don’t switch the programmer ON, simply connect it to the tachograph with the appropriate cable. The programmer will switch ON and detect the tachograph type. In the case of the K13xx/1318 and the FTCO1319, switch the programmer ON pressing the ‘I/O’ key. If the FTCO1319 is connected, the programmer will detect it. To switch the programmer OFF, press and hold the ‘I/O’ key. If no tachograph is detected, the K13xx/1318 will be selected by default. OOn power ON, the programmer will display the product information (Software version, Serial number, etc…), then the menu for the tachograph type detected.
