Software Test Point Signals
The iBox allows you to select any one of over fifty signals to display on-screen in iView or on the
iBox LCD display at each of two “software test points.” A signal selected on a software test point
(Test Point 1, Test Point 2) is also output on the corresponding iBox physical test point (STP 1,
STP 2). For example, if you selected Brake Voltage on software Test Point 1, the Brake Voltage
value would be displayed on screen and would also be output on iBox test point STP 1. Signals
you can choose from are listed in the following table.
Raw signals are unprocessed signals directly from a source. They are frequently too “spikey” to
use to read an average value but provide proof of activity and instantaneous reaction to chang-
ing conditions.
Filtered values represent the average, filtered value extrapolated from the raw signal to provide
a viewable, “smoothed,” signal.
