Q: Can I use a VCM II unit to diagnose Suzuki with SDT 2?
The SDT-II or Smart Diagnostic Tester II is a PC based diagnostic scan tool for Suzuki vehicles. Features include, VIN Lookup, vehicle health and communication bus check. Can be used for pass through reprogramming of modules on most Suzuki vehicles when combined with the SEPS software.

For owners of Ford VCM II (dual-board), an instruction (more specifically a review) for installing and configuring the Ford VCM II to work with the Suzuki SDT-2 program.
The site of the program is posted (sold) version 2.8.0.46, on the network (thanks to the distributor) 2.9.0.47 (from 1.10.2015).
For those already using the Ford VCM II with the Ford IDS program.
On the laptop (or OS) where the Ford VCM II with Ford IDS is installed and running, go along the path:
C: Program Files Ford Motor Company IDS Runtime install3rdparty ETAS
or
C: Program Files (x86) Ford Motor Company IDS Runtime install3rdparty ETAS
Regards … (Thanks to vagvag for the information).
Copy and save in a convenient place for you or media, the file is the installer of the VCM II manager running Ford IDS.
Install the Suzuki SDT-2. Run the installer program, after a short time the program will ask you to connect VCM II. It is enough to connect via USB. We connect, only after this the program will be completely installed. (VCM II connected)
The program is installed, turn off VCM II.
We launch the file of the installer of the VCM II manager running Ford IDS.
We follow the path: “C: Program Files VTX-VCI”. We see two folders of VCI Software (6516-Suzuki) and VCI Software (Ford-VCM-II).
We copy the contents of the VCI Software folder (Ford-VCM-II) and paste it into the VCI Software folder (6516-Suzuki).
Reboot. We plug the power of 12 volts through the diagnostic tool, the VCM II is plugged, we connect the VCM II via USB to the laptop. There will be, as usual, installation of drivers.
Launch the VCM II Manager. The Start button All Programs Bosch VCI Software (6516-Suzuki) VCM Manager (6516-Suzuki). Click Connect. A green quote appears in the VCM image. Click on Show Details. Look, in the lines of the PC S / W Version and VCM II S / W Version, the numbers match. At the top of the picture VCM Manager inscription VCM II Manager (Ford-VCM-II). It should be so. We close VCM Manager.
We launch Suzuki SDT-2. We rejoice.
When working with the program. Connected the scanner to the car, waited for “peak”, connected via USB to the laptop and run Suzuki SDT-2. If necessary, we switch to the required language via the System Configuration (Russian is present). I have an eng OS and the program was installed with a sample of English. We are working. The program is simple, I think the questions should not arise.

The terms 'OBD1' and 'OBD2' are actually very specific to the US but have achieved common usage worldwide. In the US OBD2 was mandated from 1996 onwards, in Europe legislation required the adoption of EOBD (mostly compatible with OBD2) from 2001 for new petrol engined passenger vehicles through to 2004 for existing models of diesel engined passenger vehicles. Japan adopted EOBD in 2004, Australia adopted EOBD in 2006 and India is currently scheduled to adopt it in 2013. Of course manufacturers were free to adopt OBD2 or EOBD before the mandated dates so legislation dates only mean that vehicles introduced after those dates will meet the relevant specification, before those dates they may be OBD2, EOBD or proprietary. The primary interface on Suzuki ECUs is a proprietary format (generally still referred to as OBD1) and where an OBD2 or EOBD interface is also fitted, to meet legislative requirement, it is limited to the legal minimum. The official, and hugely expensive, factory scan tools, the Tech1, Tech2 and SDT use this propritary/OBD1 interface. The Suzuki specifications have not been made public but are available to aftermarket scan tool manufacturers with an annual licence fee being charged. OBD1 on OBD2 ECUs
