State Displays

  1. This allows technician to view conditions at signal level. The 2 types of signals are analog and digital. Analog signals are monitored at pins corresponding to vehicle harness splices (e.g. fuel pump relay).
  2. Digital signals correspond to data transmitted by the system controllers. Both signals are displayed in common units (e.g. temperature). Use up and down arrow keys on DRB-II to scroll through displays available.
  3. The following ENGINE state displays are available on DRB-II:

    • Module Information

      This mode allows technician to read ECU part number and application.
    • Engine Sensors

      This mode allows technician to look at various engine sensors during engine operation.
    • Inputs/Outputs

      This mode allows technician to read input and output states of various switches and sensors.
    • Custom Display

      This screen allows technician to set up his/her own custom display. Two custom display screens can be programmed into DRB-II.
    • Minimum/Current/Maximum

      The MIN/CURRENT/MAX display shows a history of conditions for a specific sensor. When this option is selected, maximum, current (static) and minimum values can be displayed for a specific sensor. To reset sensors to a zero value, simply press ENTER key. This display may be used to isolate intermittent faults. The MIN/CURRENT/MAX display allows technician to observe operation of 6 different sensor values. Information is displayed as a 3-digit number. The first value displayed is the minimum reading, the second number is the current reading and third valve is the maximum reading. Typically sensors range between 2-252. Values less than 2 or greater than 252 will usually indicate that a sensor is shorted or disconnected. Watch minimum and maximum values to help diagnose intermittent problems.
    • Monitors

      This screen shows technician sensors and system controllers which affect fuel control, spark advance, RPM and A/C relay. There are 4 different screens available. As an example, screen No. 1 will show: airflow sensor, O2 sensor, battery and fuel injector. All of these inputs affect fuel control.
