Coding & Programming Equipment: Networks: Notes

As the level of technology in our vehicles continues to increase so does the level of technology that we use in our diagnostic and programming equipment within the workshop.

In order to meet the ever growing demand for more rapid transfer of information we can no longer have multiple "stand alone" systems, therefore various infrastructures have been created to allow multiple "stand alone" devices/systems to interact with each other to share information.

The sharing of information with various control modules in our vehicles has been occurring for quite some time, now we will also be doing this with the diagnostic equipment in the workshop as well.
