PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Global OBD II/MTS 3100 Mastertech
Now You Can Diagnose All OBD-II Certified Vehicles with Your MTS 3100
Vetronix Corporation now provides the most comprehensive diagnostic software available for
servicing all OBD II compliant vehicles sold in the U.S. The new Global OBD II software supports
all OBD II emissions-related systems on today's new vehicles and is a complement to the MTS
3100 Mastertech's already superior Domestic and Asian Imports software. You can maximize
productivity as well as your profits with software that lets you tackle those newer vehicles that
used to go to the dealership for repair.
OBD II equipped vehicles provide a standard interface to off-board
diagnostic test equipment. This interface includes a standard test connector,
referred to as the J1962 connector, a standard communication protocol (SAE
J1850, ISO 9141-2 and KWP-2000), and a standard set of diagnostic test
modes defined by SAE J1979. The MTS 3100 fully supports all of these,
including automatic determination of the vehicle's communication protocol.
Below is a summary of the basic OBD II functions and the Vetronix
enhancements to OBD II. Ask for a demonstration!
