To access “Comport Settings” for TOOLBOX™ Software
versions prior to TOOLBOX™ Software 11, click on “System
Setup” from the main TOOLBOX™ page. Figure 3.6.
Make sure the “Vendor:” and “Adapter:” drop-downs are set
for the device being used and set the “Protocol:” drop-down to
J1708 OR J1939 according to the system you will be
communicating through, and click “OK”. Figure 3.4.
Figure 3.4
NOTE: When switching between J1939 and J1708
communications with TOOLBOX™ Software 11, the vehicle
ignition must be cycled between sessions to correctly
communicate with the ECU.
NOTE: TOOLBOX™ Software must be connected to the vehicle
and the vehicle ignition must be ON in order to display
information. If unable to communicate with the ECU:
앫 Verify device and data link connections are secure.
앫 Verify the device is RP1210A compliant and that the
comport settings (Vendor, Protocol, Adapter) in
TOOLBOX™ Software are correct.
앫 Verify the device software and firmware is up to date.
앫 Check all the powers and grounds coming to the ECU
including load testing.
앫 Check J1587 circuit at the ECU and the data link connector.
앫 Check J1939 circuit at the ECU and the data link connector.
4. Depending on the software version used, there will be two
options to communicate with the vehicle:
앫 If using TOOLBOX™ 11 or higher and a vehicle with
Software ECU E4.4b or higher, diagnostics over J1939
communications can be possible. Figure 3.5.
NOTE: E8 software versions will only communicate over
J1939.
앫 J1708 communications are possible with any TOOLBOX™
Software version and any D or E Version ECU. Figure 3.6.
NOTE: When switching between J1939 and J1708
communications, vehicle ignition must be cycled between
sessions to correctly communicate with ECU.
