This function is rare, but it is
used, for example, with some OBD-I 2.8L 12V V6 engines. The very name of this function
annoyed us, so we added a twist. You can look at two channels of
"Single Readings" at once!
The Single Reading
function allows you to look at real-time data from control modules that
support it. However, the data stream coming from the control
module gives NO CLUE what the data means or how to scale it into
real-world values.
The only way to know what the values
mean is to find a reference to this function in the Factory Repair
Manual for your car.
Use
[Up] and [Dn]
to scroll through the available groups (000 - 255 on some Control
Modules). Don't become discouraged when you find some where the
fields are all blank.
You can also type a
Channel number into the Channel box and click [Go!]
Use
[Done, Go Back] to return to
the Open Controller screen.
Note: On the Open Controller
screen, the Supported Codes
button will appear in place of the Single Reading function
in modules that support it, since the two functions are
mutually exclusive.
