4.Make sure your remote desktop client is functional and up to date

 

 

How to configure and prepare the remote PC
Prior to performing the installation and configuration tasks, make sure the laptop has just been started, sometimes laptop that come back from sleep have network issue until full rebooted.
Also make sure the ENET OBD plug is connected to the car and the laptop and that the car engine is started.

Finally it will save you time to have ZGW_Search.exe and the MSWINSCK.OCX files ready to download from sites such as MEGA or GOOGLE DRIVE prior to connect to the remote PC. If
ZGW_Search complains about missing OCX, run the tool as an administrator and/or register the OCX file using the Windows command command Regsvr32

Copy the MSWINSCK.OCX to C:\Windows\System32 for example, then run the CMD.EXE as an administrator and execute the following command.

1.Login to the remote PC and switch off any firewall and Anti Virus.
2.Run ZGW_SEARCH.exe to figure out the car’s IP address (It should be 169.254.x.y)
If no address are coming up, make sure the relevant network interface is set to DHCP on the laptop and that the car is started/ENET OBD plug is connected.
Sometimes it is not possible to pick up the car’s IP if it has been opened for a while, if that happens, simply lock the car for 5mn and try again (Disconnect OBD lead, switch off engine, car locked)
3Add a local entry to Windows network table with the following steps
– As an administrator, start a Command prompt Window
– In the command prompt window, paste the following command and adjust the IP address to the one you found with ZGW_Search netsh int portproxy add v4tov4 listenport=6801 connectport=6801 connectaddress=169.254.x.y
