9.7.3 Reading software values from a chosen module in real time

Modern motorcycles use a series of interconnected, computerised

systems. Instead of constant voltages, a number of control inputs and

corresponding actuation outputs take the form of data streams.

The Real-time Values function allows you to see these data streams in

real time as numeric parameters, or as a 2-D graph showing values over

time. As a basis for diagnostic troubleshooting, you can compare these

values with known baselines.

To view an instantaneous readout of real-time parameters for any chosen

electronic module, do the steps that follow:

1. Specify the motorcycle model as shown in Selecting a motorcycle

series and model.

2. Choose the electronic module you want to work on by clicking the

correct link in the Controller list.

 The Functions view will be shown.

3. Click Real-time Values.

 A list of parameters will be shown for the chosen module (a

typical example for ABS brakes is shown below).

4. Show (and if needed, store) data by doing the steps that follow:

NOTE

To view the parameters of the chosen module as a real-

time 2-D graph, see Reading software values from a

chosen module in real time.
