The Status screen has the following areas:

To view an individual group of parameters, click on one of the Status Groups. The selected Status Groups parameters will appear in the display area. Or, use the up and down arrows on the keyboard to consecutively view each group and its parameters in the Display Area.

The display area is located on the right side of the screen. To view a group of status parameters, double click on the Status Group. The corresponding status parameters will appear in the display area.

The Status display area has six columns displaying the following information:
  • Description – name of the parameter.
  • Value – status of the selected parameter.
  • Unit – type of unit with which the value is measured.
  • Min – lowest (minimum) values a status parameter has reached while being displayed.
  • Max – highest (maximum) value a status parameter has reached while being displayed.
  • ECM – ECM reading the parameter value.
If the service tool is unable to read a parameter value, "Unavailable," "Not Installed," or "Not Available" will appear in the Values column for that parameter.


Selecting a Group of Parameters
The Groups… button prompts the Select Group dialog box to be displayed. This dialog box displays available default groups of parameters to monitor and provides access for creating, changing, and deleting groups. This dialog box allows a group in the service tool to be reassigned.
  • To select a group: click the Groups… button. The Select Group dialog box is displayed. 
  • Highlight a group from the Select a group list box, and click OK. The service tool screen displays showing the selected group and its parameters.
