Diagnostic Card:

Diagnosis Card:

The Diagnosis Card is the interface between the Porsche System Tester 2 and the vehicle

The Diagnosis Card is responsible for the diagnosis reports, control-module programming voltage and for voltage supply to the Porsche System Tester 2 via the vehicle battery.

The Diagnosis Card can be left in the Tester.

Voltage Supply:

Three types of voltage supply are possible for the Porsche System Tester 2:

- Internal rechargeable battery (operating time approx. 20 min)

Working Log:

During diagnosis, e.g. when the fault memory is being read out, a "save" symbol appears near the softkeys. This item is saved in the working log if the corresponding softkey is pressed.

The working log can be printed out with key 2.3. It is thus possible to document all stored faults, for example.
