How to Upload Autel Scanners Logs
Your operation logs are the most representative information about your equipment. Through logs, our technicians can immediately understand your equipment failure and provide technical support to help you resolve the problem.
On Autel tablets, logs are usually divided into two categories: application logs (car logs) and system logs (Maxitool logs); on computers, there are PC Suite logs.
So how do you upload logs? Here are the specific steps:
Application Log (Car Log) Upload Steps
If you have problems performing vehicle software functions, upload application logs, primarily using the Diagnostics and Service apps. In short, if the problem occurs after connecting to the vehicle, you need to upload the vehicle logs.
Step 1: Make sure all software and lower computer updates have been completed.
Step 2: Having trouble using diagnostics or service features.
Step 3: Click the Data Log icon and select the type of problem you are experiencing.

Step 4: Fill in the information in detail and select Send.
Step 5: Open the data manager and select "feedback" to view the developer's response
Step 6: Resolve the issue based on the developer's response, or download the patch file they sent.
This is the procedure you should follow when you encounter a problem. Of course, the Autel scanner will automatically save the last 20 operation records, and you can also upload them directly in the data management menu. If you forget to save while filling in the information, you can choose to continue filling in the data management menu without feedback.
