Active Test
The
Active Test
function is used to access vehicle-specific subsystem and component
tests. Available tests vary depending on the manufacturer, year, and model, and only the
available tests display in the menu.
During an active test, the tablet sends commands to the ECU in order to drive the
actuators. This test determines the integrity of the system or parts by reading the engine
ECU data, or by monitoring the operation of the actuators. Such tests may include
toggling between two positions of a solenoid, relay, or switch.
Selecting
Active Test
opens a menu of test options that varies by make and model.
Selecting a menu option activates the test. Follow on-screen instructions while
performing tests. Procedures and instructions very by vehicles. Some toggle and variable
control tests display Active Test Controls at the top of the screen with data stream
information below, or vice versa.
The function buttons at the lower right corner of the Active Test screen manipulate the
test signals. The operational instructions are displayed on the main section of the test
screen. Simply follow the on-screen instructions and make appropriate selections to
complete the tests. Each time when an operation is successfully executed, message
such as “Command Finished”, “Activation Successful”, or something similar displays.
Tap the
ESC
button to exit the test when finished.
