Overview

The ScanDAQ was designed especially for the garage-environment, unlike a PDA or a laptop. It offers sealed connectors, a high-impact rubber boot, a tactile membrane keypad, and a battery pack to allow operation (~6 hours) when not connected to a vehicle. ScanDAQ is the answer for vehicle diagnostics and service operations that require user-interaction.

ScanDAQ is the only handheld device to supports the J2534 applications from all OEMs while also offering a complete set of handheld diagnostics capabilities on-screen. The color touch screen is sunlight readable and the device was built to survive in harsh shop environments. ScanDAQ also has optional wireless capabilities and extended storage upgrades to up to 4GB for live data.

The ScanDAQ runs Linux and has a set of applications available from DTC readers, PID live data recorders, and scope probes to other specialized applications. Because the ScanDAQ runs Linux and supports J2534, it is a great open platform for 3rd party application development. Drew Tech can assist is customizing the ScanDAQ for any special automotive, heavy duty truck, off road, or aerospace application.

OEM J2534 Reflashing Applications

Servicing newer, more increasingly complicated vehicles has put independent repair shops at a disadvantage against auto dealerships that have access to the latest service tools and knowledge databases. Accurately diagnosing and repairing many of these newer vehicles used to require full access to expensive factory service tools. The EPA recognized the independent repair shop’s need for access and mandated that all OEMs comply with the SAE standard J2534-1. The SAE J2534-1 standard defines a uniform hardware device, like the Drew Technologies ScanDAQ, that all automakers must support with their vehicle reflashing applications.

 Having access to SAE J2534-1 software and tools are important for several reasons. First, diagnosing and repairing vehicles often requires reprogramming or reflashing the vehicle with the latest update. After a vehicle is assembled and sold at a new car dealership, the automaker’s engineering groups often fix common problems found at the dealership by releasing a new reflash. The reflash is not a recall, and therefore most vehicles on the road will not get the update unless they are brought in to the dealership for servicing. These reflashes could fix transmission shifting problems, hesitation, rough idle, drivability, check engine lights, emissions quality, poor performance, or any of a number of other problems. Without the reflashing capabilities, independent repair shops may spend time and money trying to repair an issue with hard parts that cannot be repaired without a calibration flash update.

The Second reason a repair shop should have a SAE J2534-1 device is to offer their customers flash updates as an up sell. Even if the customer does not believe they are experiencing a problem with their vehicle, they may see some benefit in performance, drivability, or even fuel economy by getting their vehicle updated to the latest available calibration flash. It also serves as good preventative maintenance to update the calibration flash and avoid any problems that it was intended to fix.

 

 

Included Diagnostic Software

In addition to supporting J2534 for reflashing, the ScanDAQ includes pre-loaded diagnostic software for automotive use. Screen shots are shown at actual resolution.

OBD2 Port Locator

The OBD2 Port is located in different places on different vehicles, and often times hidden under vehicle panneling.

Just power ScanDAQ up from it's battery and you can now easily locate the vehicle connector in seconds. ScanDAQ includes a quick reference guide that allows the mechanic to select the vehicle make, model, and year to quickly locate the connector. ScanDAQ will show the user either a photograph and location of the connector, or a schematic pointing to the area on the dash where it is located.

 

   

Diagnostic Trouble Code Reading and Clearing 

Do you have a check engine light? With ScanDAQ's DTC Reader you can easily retrieve Diagnostic Trouble Codes from any OBD2 vehicle. Along with the DTC, ScanDAQ will also show you the VIN and Calibration IDs.

Once you have read the codes, you can easily clear them from this application. This is a quick and hassle free way to pull trouble codes out of OBD2 vehicles.

 

 

 

   

Live PID Data Logging and Recording   

The ScanDAQ has a built-in PID viewer which allows you to read, display, and record live data from the vehicle. You can store up to 4GB of data by using storage in the Compact Flash slot.

The PID viewer will automatically detect and display PIDS which are available. A list of supported vehicles can be viewed by clicking here >

Using the ScanDAQ PID viewer, you can view manufacturer supported PIDS such as RPM, Intake Air Temperature, Ignitiion Timing Advance, Engine Coolant Temperature, Long Term Fuel Trim, Short Term Fuel Trim, Speed, Throttle Position, Intake Manifold Pressure, Oxygen Sesnor, and many others, depending on the vehicle.

Other Included Programs

The ScanDAQ also has an analog input and control panel feature. The Analog input can be viewed and recorded on-screen using the scope probe application. The battery status and display settings are available from the control panel.

   

OEM Engineering and Testing Software

ScanDAQ was originally developed with OEM use in mind, and has since been adapted for various tasks throughout new vehicle design, development, and manufacturing. OEM Testing applications are not loaded on ScanDAQ by default, but these program can be included or customized for your specific needs.

 

BUS / Protocol Monitoring Software  

The ScanDAQ Bus Monitor software allows you to view and store packets as they are transmitted on the vehicle bus.

      

 

End Of Line (EOL) Testing  and Custom Applications

Drew Tech has developed custom applications intended for testing vehicles as they come off the assembly line. These tests can verify calibrations installed on various controllers inside the vehicle, communicate with and reprogram specific modules, perform diagnostic tests, and display or save a detailed report. All of this can be done from the ScanDAQ with no need for a separate PC.

The "Get Controller Info" application connects to the automobile and captures identification information for all controllers installed in the vehicle. There is no limit to the possibilities for custom applications!

      

3rd Party Software Supported

Use any PassThru (J2534) compliant application (V2, Web Flash, SPS/DPS, OEM mandated reprogramming.) Create your own applications in LabVIEW™, C or Visual Basic.

Additionally, ScanDAQ can host PassThru (J2534) applications on the internal embedded Linux processor. Use your favorite language, including: TCL, Perl, .Net, Java, or C.

Note: Drew Technologies provides an application programmer interface (DLL) for OEMs, integrators, or end-users to develop their own PassThru (SAE J2534) applications. We also offer in-house software development services line the Linux-SDK™. This kit will help developers write application software more quickly that can be compiled and run on AVIT, CarDAQ-Plus, ScanDAQ, and DashDAQ.
