Datastream Functions<br />

Freeze Frame<br />

The Freeze Frame function lets you “freeze” the data<br />

display on the Datastream screen and lets you view<br />

past data frame-by-frame.<br />

To “freeze” data, follow these steps:<br />

Figure 3.12: Datastream Screen - Freeze Frame Function<br />

1 With the Datastream screen displayed, press the Left<br />

Direction key to begin the freeze function.<br />

2 Repeatedly press the Left Direction key or press and<br />

hold the key to move backward through the data. As you<br />

do this, notice the following:<br />

The Frame number (above the Record key) changes<br />

to show the frame number of the currently-displayed<br />

data.<br />

The message next to the frame number flashes as<br />

“Freeze Frame” and “Exit to resume”.<br />

On any displayed graphs, the vertical, dashed-line<br />

moves to display the past data for each frame.<br />

On any displayed digital or LED lines, or analog<br />

gauges, the data changes to display the past data for<br />

each frame.<br />

3 Use the Left or Right Direction keys to move backward<br />

or forward through the data, frame-by-frame.<br />

4 When finished, press the EXIT key to return to the normal<br />

screen display and to resume reading data.<br />

Pathfinder<br />

The Pathfinder function on the Datastream screen’s<br />

More menu provides quick access to the Pathfinder<br />

software’s menu options. With these menu options, you<br />

can view vehicle-specific information, such as DTC<br />

descriptions, technical service bulletin (TSB) references,<br />

vehicle specifications, ECU component<br />

location(s), and brake bleed procedures. You can also<br />

use this function to access the Repair Trac or Fast<br />

Fixes software from within the <strong>ABS</strong> / Air Bag software.<br />

To access the Pathfinder menu options from the<br />

Datastream screen, follow these steps:<br />
