5. Funcionament

5.1 ANCEL AD310 OBD II Scanner Operation

The AD310 is designed for ease of use, providing quick and accurate diagnostic results for your vehicle's engine system.

Figure 5.1: Common scenarios where the ANCEL AD310 OBD Scanner is beneficial, including diagnosing engine light issues, passing smog checks, detecting sudden engine stalls, driving in cold weather, and saving on repair costs.

• Llegir codis: This function allows you to retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from the vehicle's computer. These codes indicate specific issues detected by the vehicle's onboard diagnostic system.
• Esborra codis: After addressing the underlying issue, this function clears the DTCs from the vehicle's memory and turns off the Check Engine Light (CEL).
• Dades en directe: View real-time operational parameters of the vehicle, such as engine RPM, vehicle speed, oxygen sensor readings, and more. This helps in monitoring vehicle performance and diagnosing intermittent issues.
• View Congelar fotograma: When an emission-related fault occurs, the vehicle's computer records a snapshot of operating conditions at the time of the fault. This data, known as Freeze Frame data, can help identify the conditions under which the fault occurred.
• Preparació I/M: This function checks the readiness of the various emission-related systems on the vehicle. It indicates whether the monitors have completed their diagnostic cycles, which is crucial for emissions testing.
• Informació del vehicle: Retrieve the vehicle identification number (VIN), calibration ID, and calibration verification number (CVN) of the test vehicle.
• EVAP Leak Test: The Evaporative Emission Control System (EVAP) prevents gasoline vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. The AD310 can perform a test to determine if the EVAP system is working correctly and detect leaks.

5.2 ANCEL BM200 Battery Tester Operation

The BM200 provides comprehensive battery analysis through its dedicated mobile application.

• Prova de la bateria: The BM200 can test all 12V 100-2000CCA lead-acid and lithium batteries. It provides real-time battery parameters including power, temperature, and voltage.
• Prova d'arrencada: This test measures the actual cranking voltage and cranking time to determine the health of the starting system.
• Prova de càrrega: Evaluates the vehicle's charging system, including the alternator, rectifier, and wiring, to ensure proper voltage sortida.
• Battery Load Test: Assesses the battery's ability to hold voltage under load, indicating its overall capacity and health.
• Emmagatzematge de dades: The device automatically stores up to 31 days of historical data, allowing you to monitor battery performance trends over time.
• Compatibilitat: Supports a wide range of 12V vehicle batteries, including those found in boats, SUVs, forklifts, hybrid cars, travel trailers, pickups, RVs, and motorcycles.
