Chapter 4: Hybrid Testing
CVG-2 Convergence Module
The CVG-2 Wireless Convergence Module is an integral part of
the hybrid battery test. When this module is plugged into a
vehicle’s OBD-II communications port, this module allows the
HYB-1000 to communicate with the on-board computer via RF
radio communications.
Connecting To A ODB-II Port
Operating a vehicle with obstructed
foot pedals creates a hazardous driving
condition.
For safe driving, make sure the CVG-2 module
does not interfere with the proper operation of
the vehicle’s foot pedals.
The CVG-2 module is designed connect with a vehicle’s ODB-II
communications port.
ODB-II Port
This port is usually located on the drivers side of the vehicle
underneath the dashboard.
Installed CVG-2 Module
Once a successful connection has been made the blue status
light at the end of the module will illuminate.
Installation Problems
Depending on the vehicle being tested, the location of the
ODB-II port will vary. In some cases, the CVG-2 module may
interfere with the operation of the vehicle’s foot pedals when
connected to the port.
CVG-2 Module Blocking Pedals
Since testing a hybrid vehicle often involves driving it, make
sure the CVG-2 does not hinder the operation of the foot
pedal. You can do this by pivoting the module using the built-
in hinge.
CVG-2 Module Rotated Up
You can also use the included OBD-II extension cable to
remove the module from the driver’s foot well completely.
