Scanner Data (Viewing PIDs)
62
Keep the following in mind when configuring a custom data list:
– Gesture scroll if the list of parameters is longer than what is shown on the
screen.
– Use the Select All icon to display the complete list.
– Use the Deselect All icon to remove all the currently selected parameters
from the list.
– Select individual parameters to highlight and include them in the list.
– Select individual highlighted parameters to remove them from the list.
– Use the Cancel icon to return to the data display.
4. Once all desired parameters have been selected, return to the data list:
– Use the List View icon to return to a data screen in PID List format.
– Use the Graph View icon to return to a data screen in Graph View format,
see Graph View on page 65 for details.
Graph View is only available when 16 or fewer parameters (the number that
can display on a single screen) were selected for the custom list. Make sure
that no more than 16 parameters are highlighted if the screen displays a single
graph when the Graph View icon is selected.
Custom PID list (cross-system)
Some vehicles may support a cross-system custom PID list, which allows you to
choose multiple PIDs from across available systems to create a custom list.
Selecting a cross-system custom PID list is similar to selecting a standard custom
PID list, however you have the option to select PIDs from multiple lists. See Custom
on page 61 for basic operation instructions.
At the time of this publication, only select CAN integrated 2005 and later Mercedes-
Benz
®
, Jaguar
®
, Chrysler
®
, Volkswagen
®
and Audi
®
vehicles support this feature.
As future diagnostic software updates occur, additional vehicle makes and models
may be included.
The total number of PIDs that can be custom selected is limited, and varies by
vehicle make and model.
Limiting the number of parameters that display to those that apply to a
particular situation results in a faster data refresh rate, and reduces the
amount of memory used for saved files. Limiting the parameters also allows
you to focus on any suspicious or symptom-specific data parameters.
z To create a Cross-System custom data list:
1. From the Data screen select Custom from the toolbar (Figure 5-42).
Figure 5-42
The custom data selection screen displays (upper image Figure 5-43).
2. Select the icons to expand/collapse each PID category, and select
the PIDs you want (lower image Figure 5-43), to create your custom list.
Each PID will highlight, as you select it.
