3.6 Functional description
The OBD connection cable is used to connect the KTS
250 to the vehicle. Operation is by hand using the TFT
touchscreen and the on-screen keyboard. While the de-
vice is connected to the vehicle by OBD interface, it is
possible to perform a control unit diagnosis and to
read the OBD fault memory of the vehicle. An external
printer (optional accessory) connected by WLAN can be
used to print the data and measured values. The
KTS 250 and the accessories are supplied in a protec-
tive case.
