How to use Xtool X100 PAD3 to Read EEPROM 93C46?

The Xtool EEPROM adapter can be used to read pin code, initialize data, read eeprom and adjust mileage when using with x100 pad2 or x100 pad3. 

Xtool x100 pad3 and eeprom adapter can read following eeprom chips:
24C01  24C02 24C04 24C08 24C16 24C32 24C64 25010 25020 25040 25080 25160 25320 25640 25128 25256 93C46 93C56 93C57 93C66 93C76 93C86 95010 95020 95040 95080 95160 95320 95640 95128 95256

Here is the example on reading 93c46 eeprom with pad3 and adapter.



Connect the EEPROM chip to the EEPROM adapter, then connect with x100 pad3 via main cable.
Connect the power supply, be sure to connect the power supply adapter before operating.
