powerfull device in the market.
Let's take a look what Zed-BULL can do.
It can identify all transponders used in autmotive industry, copy all fixed
coded transponders, copy some of 40, all 41, all 42, unlocked 44(VAG), all 45
and all 4D transponders.
Also it can copy all type of Texas 4C transponders to batteryless TPX1
transponder.
It can prepare transponder from EEPROM or MCU datas of car which
directly starts car or ready to match with diagnostic devices.
It can calculate pin codes from EEPROM, MCU, VIN number or key data
of the car for some car models.
Device is supported with PC software, which you can find usefull
informations about transponders and matching car models and remote
programming procedures. Storing unlimited(limited with Pc harddrive
capacity) customer information to database is another advantage of Zed-
BULL PC Software.
Zed-BULL PC Software also has all functionalities of the device itself
such as reading, identifying and writing to transponder.
Zed-BULL PC Software is capable of reading and writing to new
generation Philips Hitag 2 crypto transponders.
One of the most usefull property of the PC Software is transponder
production property. User can prepare their own transponders such as; 11, 12,
13, 4C, 33, 40, 41, 42, 44 VAG, 44 Mitsubishi, 45, 46, 61, 62, 65 and 73 for
diagnostic devices.
There are 2 types of tokens, one token is device token, which is free of
charge and the other one is Pc token which is used for Eeprom & Mcu
applications and transponder production applications(with charge).when
device is turned on, before logging in number of tokens, 16 digit device serial
number, device software version, device applications information (ZB:refers to
Zed-BULL which is consisted of transponder cloning functions, ZBE:refers to
Zed-BULL + Eeprom and MCU application, ZBET:refers to Zed-BULL +
Eeprom & Mcu Application + transponder production) are displayed on the

Important Notes:
-User must use external IC programmer to read the Eeproms and Mcus.
-The pictures of the IC programmer in Zed-Bull Pc software is for brand
Omega-Mtrk IC Programmer.
-Omega-Mtrk IC Programmer covers all the applications in the list and we

16

suggest this programmer.But user is free to use any of the IC programmers in
the market.
-According to the features of IC Programmer, all the Eeproms and Mcus might
need to be desoldered from immo board. For most of the IC programmers in
the market Eeproms and Mcus must be desoldered from immo board.
-While desoldering the Eeproms and Mcus, user must be very carefull, since
the pins of the Eeproms and Mcus are thin, they might be broken if not
disoldered slowly and properly.
-When an Eeprom or Mcu is read with IC Programmer, we strongly
recommend user to save a copy of the original Eeprom or Mcu data file.
When a problem occurs while using the file , copy of the original file will be
still holding the needed datas and might be used for recovery.
-The Eeprom or Mcu must be soldered back in the same direction when it is
desoldered.
-While soldering back the Eeprom or Mcu, user must be carefull against
unwanted short circuits between pins.
-While reading motorola Mcus, removing the security of the Mcu is
suggested. If the Mcu is read without removing the security, all the
informations might be deleted for some Mcu types. So user must be carefull
about this detail while reading Mcus.
-Some non-original IC programmers in the market might delete Eeprom and
Mcu datas while reading. Using original IC programmers is suggested.
-While desoldering the Eeprom or Mcu, user must be careful about not
desoldering the neighbour components on the immo board accidentaly.
-For BMW applications, user must be careful about the key number. When
customer wants spare key, the original customer key should be read and the
key number should be noted. In the PC software window proper key number
should be selected.

To make key which directly starts the car for the modules 11,12, and 18 few
additional steps required. The prosedure is as below:
1-Desolder the Eeprom or Mcu from immo board.
2-Read Eeprom or Mcu with external IC Programmer.
3-Save the read file with “.bin” extension with any name and to any location as
you wish.
4-Open the file that you saved, using the Zed-Bull Pc Software, insert the
suitable transponder to the antenna and click the “programme transponder”
17

button on Zed-BULL Pc Software, precoded transponder is prepared.
5-Do not remove the transponder from antenna, press “Create Image File”
button on Extended Function Menu. Save the file with different name such as
“.....image.bin” in order not to overwrite on to the previous file.
6-Using the IC programmer write the file that you saved to the eeprom or
Mcu of the immo board. The process is completed. The tranponder will start
the car directly.
