Dolphin XP005 Cut a Key for Suzuki Swift

 How to use Xhorse Dolphin XP005 + VVDI Key Tool Max to cut a key for Suzuki Swift? Today I will make a quick demonstration for its procedure.

 

Connect VVDI Key Tool Max and Dolphin XP005 key cutting machine via Bluetooth for smart control, prepare an original key and a new for ready, then get to start:

 

Vehicle database >> Suzuki >> Swift >> Swift-New >> OK

Install M1 clamp as prompts, fix the original key flat on clamp. I will use a block help to calibrate the position of key. Remember to remove it after calibration.

Go back to VVDI Key Tool Max when the key was fastened.

Dismount the original key, put the new key to be cut on clamp instead. Calibrate and fix the key as before.

 

Go back to VVDI Key Tool Max again.

 

Cutting key >> Continue

How to Cut SC1 key with Xhorse Dolphin XP005 and M4 Jaw?

Problem:
I have Key decode error with xhorse m4 jaw.
The Xhorse application doesn’t let me calibrate the m4.
My work around has been to pause the machine mid decoding and then lower the probe with a allen wrench.

Suggestion:
You can go under universal duplication.
Sc1 doesn’t have a key profile on xhorse app.
Select M4 clamp.

If you can put something under to lift it up a bit it should work.

Difference Between Condor XC-Mini Milling Cutters

Question:
May be a dumb question. Just bought a Xhorse condor xc-mini plus key cutting machine. What is the 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 milling cutters for what are the difference besides size?
condor-xc-mini-milling-cutter

Answer:
1.0mm is the Tracer Probe.
The milling cutter has 3 optional size: 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5.
No difference except size (length)
You can use 1.5, 2.5 on everything.

User experience:
The 2.5mm cutter will do almost everything. 1.5mm cutter will be used on things like hu162 for new vag and I believe internal ford hu101.
