As pre-check diagnostic tool
Prior to having a vehicle inspected for compliance to a state emissions test,
you could use this function to check the readiness status first by yourself.
1) While the scan tool is connected to the vehicle, select Ready Test from
Main Screen. Drive the car till the scan tool notifies you safely with color
LEDs and audible tone if your vehicle is ready to conduct state emission
test.
2) If the GREEN LED lights and two long beeps are heard, your vehicle is
ready and there is a good possibility that it can be certified.
3) If the RED LED lights, your vehicle is not ready and must be repaired
before an emissions test can be performed.
NOTE
1. If you are driving the vehicle to perform a drive cycle ALONE, please
set the Status Beep On (see 3.8 System Setup). By listening to the beep,
you will learn when the monitors have run and completed the diagnostic
testing. NEVER try to drive and operate the scan tool at the same time!
2. This function reads off the real time data of emission-related monitoring
systems readiness status. Once the scan tool has finished other
operations, for example, clearing trouble codes, the I/M Readiness
Monitor Status program resets status of all the monitors to "INC"
condition. In order to set these monitors to a Ready status, the vehicle
must be driven through a complete drive cycle. Times for reset vary
depending on vehicle. Please refer to your vehicle's service manual for
drive cycle information.
3. In this function, only ESC button is available. The other buttons are
disabled to prevent misoperation.
