General information: Use

The Porsche System Tester 2 is a modular, portable diagnostic and measuring system. It can be used in any location to perform diagnostic tests on electronic control modules.

The Tester consists of a computer unit, a main memory, a hard disk, a VGA display panel, a nickel metal hydride battery and a measuring unit for measurement of current, voltage and resistance values.

The Porsche System Tester 2 can be operated with the built-in keys or using a connectable country-specific PS/2 keyboard (option).

Data and measured values can be printed out on one of the ten DIN A4 printers currently approved by Porsche.

The integrated LCD panel is used as the display. A monitor can also be connected (VGA connection).

If a printer or PS/2 keyboard is connected, the corresponding device type must be set under Configuration in the start-up screen.

The Tester thus can be used to check all systems that possess a diagnostic interface conforming with the ISO standard.

The following tasks can be performed:

• Reading out the control-module identification
• Reading out the fault memory
• Erasing the fault memory
• Testing the drive links
• Testing the input signals
• Reading out actual values
• Control module programming
• Current, voltage and resistance measurements
