I thought I'd take a moment to show you all the mods that have been done to my modis.
The most obvious is hooking up and attaching a larger screen for ease of viewing. Not quite a verus interface but certainly helps. You may notice it also has an in-line volt meter to keep an eye on the voltage going through the tool. The USB port has a splitter attached, I find this most useful as I can hook up a keyboard and mouse, this means I can actually run the modis program several times at once on the same tool. This means I can have scan data up and running at the same time as the scope/multimeter etc.
I was debating changing the hard drive for an SSD for quicker tool performance and boot up time however as the tool can run the main modis program 3 times before it starts to struggle I don't think it'll be a big advantage.
I did not do these mods myself it was actually a relative of mine, Scott Duncan of Scott Mechanics. He also has a YouTube channel where you can see this frankenstien modis in action along with other diagnostic techniques that he demonstrates with the verus pro.
Thanks uncle Scott!

That's great! When I was running a modis I used to open the program twice to run the scope and scanner at the same time, but it slowed her down considerably

Holy crap, that's awesome! :woohoo: I love the people that are willing to Frankenstein their equipment to make amazing results like this.
