🔧 New Bi-Directional Control (Active Test) – Diagnose with Confidence

One of the most important upgrades to the XTOOL IP616 is the addition of bi-directional control, also known as active testing.

With active test capability, the IP616 doesn’t just read data—it sends commands directly to vehicle components, allowing you to verify whether parts are working properly without unnecessary disassembly.

What You Can Do with Active Tests:
- Activate fuel pumps
- Trigger cooling fans
- Test solenoid valves

- Quickly isolate faulty components vs. wiring or ECU issues
This function dramatically reduces diagnostic time and guesswork, making the IP616 a powerful tool for accurate, real-world troubleshooting—especially when dealing with complex modern vehicles.
