RECORDING (CAPTURING) LIVE DATA
You can record and save several frames of Live Data information for
each PID supported by the vehicle in the CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool's
memory. Recorded Live Data can serve as valuable information to help
you in the troubleshooting of vehicle problems.
There are two ways that the CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool can "record" Live
Data:
� Record by DTC Trigger
� Record by Manual Trigger
If the POWER/LINK button is pressed at any time while in
Live Data mode, any stored (recorded) Live Data will be
cleared (erased) from the CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool’s memory.
Record by DTC Trigger
This function automatically records (captures) Live Data information
when a DTC sets and saves it in the CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool’s memory.
The recorded (captured) data can be a valuable troubleshooting aid,
particularly if you are experiencing a fault that is causing a DTC to set.
