Internet connection. Therefore, the PC should be permanently online. The mega
macs PC Bike software is not suitable for repairing electrical machines and
devices or home electrics. Diagnostic devices from other manufacturers will
not be supported. If the mega macs PC Bike software and the PC VCI is used in
a way not authorized by Hella Gutmann the protection of the device may be
influenced.
The PC VCI is intended for industrial use. Outside of industrial environments,
e.g., in commercial areas or in the centre of a town, radio interference
suppression measures may need to be taken.
