9.6.3 Using the Scope Module Extension Cable
In situations where the testing connection points are not easily accessible, the
Scope Module easily separates from the diagnostic tool (connected via extended
length USB cable) allowing you to monitor the results remotely. This increases the
range of mobility for the diagnostic tool while monitoring signals on the test vehicle.
Use the Type A/B USB cable, which is provided with your kit, to make the
connection.
NOTE
When used remotely, the scope module must be connected to the lower
(black) USB jack on the diagnostic tool.
As general practice, the Scope Module should only be undocked from the
diagnostic tool when it is off. To prevent accidental loss of data, make it a practice
to first save the current data if desired, then select either the
Power Off
or
Back
icon from the Scope Multimeter toolbar to stop meter operation. Power Off saves
the current settings, but does not save data.
NOTES
If the Scope Module:
○
Is undocked from the diagnostic tool when it is on, or
○
Is exposed to a electro static discharge (ESD) while it is being used
remotely
the following will occur:
• Communication between the diagnostic tool and the Scope Module
will be terminated.
• All current data and settings will be lost.
• An error message (e.g. Meter/Scope Not Found) will display to
indicate that Scope Module communication has terminated.
When communication is reestablished (after a communication loss), the
Scope Multimeter application is restarted and the Scope Multimeter main
menu page is displayed.

4.
Connect the square end of the USB cable to the jack on the Scope Module.
NOTE
When used remotely, the Scope Module must be connected to a USB jack on
the diagnostic tool.
5.
Connect the rectangular end of the USB cable to a USB port on the diagnostic
tool.
The Scope Module is now ready for remote use.
