What is Clamp M5?

The new clamp M5 is equal to clamp M1 plus M2, supporting Dolphin II XP-005L and Condor XC-MINI II(coming soon).

Clamp M5 has side A and B, so users can turn it over as cutting needs instead of replacing different clamps. Detailed method is:

Loosen the key lock knob, turn over the clamp and tighten the key lock knob.

 

What new features on Dolphin XP-005L?

Dolphin XP-005L ≈Dolphin XP-005 software(function) + Condor XC-MINI Plus hardware.

Compared to Dolphin XP-005:

300$, we’ll get

An HD screen(you don’t have to operate on your phone or buy a Key Tool Max),

A larger protection cover(Some customers gave a feedback that they wanted to buy a separate shell for Dolphin XP-005),

Online update(Firmware update via Upgrade Kit is a big trouble to some customers)

Lower weight(Easier to carry out)

M5 clamp(Make operation easier).

 

Compared to Condor XC-MINI Plus:

450$, we’ll lose

A larger screen, offline operation. However, XC-Mini Plus doesn’t have a built-in battery so hard to take it out.

 

Personal review

Basically for me, 300 bucks to get a screen, don’t worth it. Just pay more 50 bucks and I can get Key tool max plus XP-005. And lower weight and the combination M5(M1, M2) also don’t interest me, but I’d like to pay for online update, because when the device needs a firmware update, you have to request a link to the update software application through the support section of their phone app. I couldn’t get it to communicate with my Dolphin xp005 over USB, and  eventually I do the update using a friends computer.

As for Condor Mini Plus, you can see the biggest difference is that it allows you to cut keys without network support. It’s very useful, but the price is too high. See if you really need that function.

Xhorse Dolphin XP007 Key Cutting Machine Clamp Calibration

Hi,guys,Xhorsevvdi shows your How to use Xhorse Dolphin XP007 Key Cutting Machine to calibrate Clamp, and to make key here

Step-by-step:
To calibrate the clamp of Xhorse dolphin XP007 manual key cutting machine, you will need 2.5mm probe.





Now stick the probe in and tighten up.




we use a No.25 key blank (HON66) for the calibration.

Insert the key into the clamp and tighten up.

Then we will use a guiding block.




After that, we will need to pay attention to this two indicator lights (needle leveling and battery meter), this is a prepositioning switch knob, if it's down, you can move the probe.

If it is up, the probe is stationary.

Keep the probes at the same height level.

Roll down the handle to see if the two lights are on simultaneously.

This knob is used for Micro-adjustment.

Turn the knob counter-clockwise, it will go down, clockwise will lead to going-up.

if the two lights go on at the same time, it indicates the height is ready to go. 

You can also try to press different positions, if one light is out, but now you press harder, it's on. It is perfect normal and there's no need to adjust again.





Now we will turn to horizontal collaboration.

And we'll do X-Axis calibration first, to start, the probe needs to touch the edge of the key.





If the needle leveling light is out, roll down the handle and rotate the handle clockwise.

There are two screws in position 1 and position2 and we need to adjust the screw.





Now the battery meter light is out, we need to tighten the screw in position 2, if the l needle leveling light is out, we will need to tighten the screw in position 1.



Now try to slide the jaw.

Both lights are on, tighten the left screw, now X-axis calibration is done.





Next we move to y-axis calibration.

Keep the handle fixed for y-axis calibration, we will need to adjust the position 3 and position 4.



Now the needle leveling light is out, we'll need to loosen position3 and tighten position 4.



When both lights are on, the clamp calibration is finished.





After calibration,we will try to duplicate the key for you guys and demonstrate how Dolphin XP007 works.





Enjoy!
