Viewing Capture Info Data
Capture Info is a feature that allows the Tech 2 to retrieve DTCs, Freeze Frame and Failure Records from
the vehicle’s control module. This is a different function than snapshot display. Capture Info files consist of
only one frame of data, whereas snapshots typically contain multiple frames of data.
When Capture Info is selected (refer to p. VII-4), the scan tool displays a menu selection that allows data
from the control module to be stored to the Tech 2 PCMCIA card, or to refresh the PCMCIA card with new
data from a control module.
IMPORTANT
A single code may be counted as two different codes in a Capture Info file if it exists both in freeze
frame and failure records (Figure VIIB-28).
To view DTCs, freeze frame or failure record data through TIS software:
1. Use the Tech 2 Capture Info function to retrieve data from a vehicle’s control module.
2. Connect the Tech 2 to the computer (Figure VIIB-4) and go to the Tech 2 start-up screen (Figure VI-1).
3. Launch TIS.
4. Select the Snapshot Upload/Display application.
