The Opel Checking System
The "TECHLINE SYSTEM", a technical testing concept developed by Opel, has pointed the way for the checking of electronic systems in vehicles.
At the heart of the Opel Checking System are TECH 1 and TECH 80. Together with the Electronic-Kit I, all OPEL/VAUXHALL vehicles can be checked using the most modern electronic methods.
As only electronic components are checked using KM-640 and/or TECH 1, only statements about electrical, electronic faults can be made.
With TECH 1, it is possible to read out streams of data from electronic control units. A precondition for this is the use of electronic systems with · microprocessor techniques · self-diagnosis · serial data line
TECH 1 is connected via the diagnostic plug in the vehicle. TECH 1 is a Hand Tester, constructed using module techniques. This form of design ensures that modern electronic systems can be checked now and in the future. The streams of data captured on TECH 1 are presented on a 4-line/16-character display. The current actual values displayed are compared with the nominal values from the data list. Where there are deviations from the relevant nominal values, a trouble-shooting program is available, so that the user can make a clear diagnosis. The TECH 1 checking concept means rapid and accurate trouble-shooting.
