VIEWING VEHICLE INFORMATION
The Vehicle Information function offers
three options for retrieving reference
information for the vehicle under test;
Vehicle ID , Available Modules and IPT (In-
Use Performance Tracking).
Retrieving Vehicle ID Information
The Vehicle ID function is applicable to model year 2000 and
newer OBD2-compliant vehicles.

manufacturer), unique to the vehicle under test, from the vehicle's on-
board computer. This information may include:
n
The vehicle's VIN number
n
The control module identification number
n
The vehicle's calibration ID(s). These IDs uniquely identify the
software version(s) for the vehicle's control module(s).
n
The Vehicle's Calibration Verification Number(s) (CVNs) required by
ODB2 regulations. CVNs are used to determine if emission-related
calibrations for the vehicle under test have been changed. One or
