Freeze Data
The Freeze Data function lets you “freeze” the data
display on the Datastream screen and lets you view
past data frame-by-frame.
To “freeze” data, follow these steps:
Figure 7.11: Datastream Screen - Freeze Frame Function
1 With the Datastream screen displayed, press the Left
Direction key to begin the freeze function.
2 Repeatedly press the Left Direction key or press and
hold the key to move backward through the data. As
you do this, notice the following:
• The Frame number (above the Record key)
changes to show the frame number of the
currently-displayed data.
• The message next to the frame number flashes
as “Freeze Data” and “Exit to resume”.
• On any displayed graphs, the vertical, dashed-
line moves to display the past data for each
frame.
• On any displayed digital or LED lines, or analog
gauges, the data changes to display the past
data for each frame.
3 Use the Left or Right Direction keys to move
backward or forward through the data, frame-by-
frame.
4 When finished, press the EXIT key to return to the
normal screen display and to resume reading data.

ences, vehicle specifications, ECU component loca-
tion(s), and brake bleed procedures. You can also
