Scanner - Automotive Viewing and Saving Data (PIDs)
34
Up to three parameters can be locked at a time. Once locked, a parameter
remains locked until it is manually unlocked, or communication with the vehicle
is stopped.
Figure 6-23 Locked parameters
If three parameters are locked, one of them must first be unlocked before
another parameter can be locked.
z To unlock parameters:
1. Scroll through the data list and highlight the parameter to be unlocked, or
released.
2. Select the Lock/Unlock icon on the toolbar.
The released parameter and the lock icon disappear from the list at the top of
the data list.
3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 to release other parameters if needed.
6.4.10 Using Triggers
Trigger Description and Features
Setting PID triggers allows you to configure the diagnostic tool to
automatically save PID data to a file, when a PID value meets an upper/
lower limit (trigger point).
When a PID value meets the trigger point it activates the trigger which
captures a short recording of all available PID data and saves it as a data file.
You can review the saved data file to closely evaluate not only the PID that triggered
the event, but all the PIDs being monitored to collectively see what was happening
at the time of the event.
Examples of the following trigger states (Armed / Not Activated - upper image) and
(Activated - lower image) are shown in (Figure 6-24).
