4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1 Intelligent Diagnostics Workflow

The LAUNCH X431 PRO3 (V+) V5.0 offers a streamlined 4-step diagnostic process:

  1. Access (AutoVIN Instant ID): Plug the scanner into the OBD port. The device automatically reads the VIN, identifying the vehicle model, year, installed ECUs, powertrain type, and bus protocol (CAN, CAN-FD, or DoIP).
  2. Locate (One-Touch Full System Scan + Topology Map): Tap 'Scan' to perform a parallel scan of all accessible ECUs (e.g., CEM, ECM, TCM, SRS, ABS, TPMS). A color-coded fault list appears, with critical items at the top. The 'Topology Map' provides a live network diagram showing ECU connections and communication paths, helping to trace faults to specific components.
  3. Analyze (Freeze Frame + Live Data + Active Tests):
    • Freeze-Frame Snapshots: Captures engine speed, battery voltage, coolant temp, and other values at the moment a DTC is set.
    • Flussi ta' Dejta Diretti: Monitors over 500 parameters in real-time with graphs and user-defined alarms.
    • Testijiet Attivi: Commands actuators (e.g., injectors, ABS pumps) to verify mechanical response.
  4. Report & Fix (Automatic Report + Clear DTCs): A diagnostic PDF report is automatically generated, summarizing DTCs, freeze-frame details, and recommended parts/labor tips. After repairs, clear codes with a single tap and re-scan to confirm parameters are within range and turn off warning lights.
