DESCRIPTION
AUTO-DIAGNOSIS Software
DD-Car is a Diagnosis Teaching Tool prepared to work with the ADA304. Working with DD-Car will allow the student to become familiar with the operation of auto-diagnosis consoles on the market allowing their adaptation to any of them to be quicker and easier, in addition testing can be carried out without the risk entailed on working directly on the systems of the vehicles.
The following functions can be made:
- Reading and deleting the breakdown code.
- Reading of values and analysis in real time of the operation of the system.
- Activation of the actuators.
- ECU Programming (flash).
- Carrying out basic adjustments in the system.
Ref.: 9EQMOTAA6C
By means of connecting the ADA303 application sensors and the ADA305 actuators to the UCE ADA304, the injection system of a basic atmospheric or turbo engine can be simulated. Then, in this engine we can observe, through the auto-diagnosis DD-Car, how the engine parameters process is changing in a real time.
One of the main features of this set of equipments is that it can be adapted to all the formative requirements and needs, as required. On one hand, the individual acquisition of each equipment allows us to work and study each group of components on an individual basis; ADA 303 study of the sensors, ADA 304 study of the control unities with auto-diagnosis and ADA 305 study of the car actuators. Developing in each case the analysis abilities, checking and diagnosis.
The acquisition of the three equipments, in which all the components are accessible and very easy to recognize (sensors, UCE, actuators), and where the student himself will have to assemble and operating the fuel injection system in an interconnected way, carrying out manually the electrical-electronical association of all the components required (sensors, UCE, actuators). So that the student is a very active element in the learning process, aware at every moment of the steps he has to carry out to make the system operate correctly, so that the student himself checks very rapidly, directly and visually the work he has done.
A very important point to underline is that the student will be able to carry out a very fast and real introduction to the auto-diagnosis through the DD-CAR software, seeing in real time the variation of the parameters of the sensors, the reading and deleting of the breakdown code, the activating, programming and basic adjustments, all of which controlled by the current EOBD norm. The work with DD-CAR will allow that the student get accustomed with the running of auto-diagnosis consoles of the market, so that he can adapt to any one of them very rapidly after having worked with the above-mentioned software.
