Current

The scan tool displays 0-127.5 amps. The current measured during seat operation.

Front Vertical Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the seat front vertical position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the seat front is in the up position and low values indicate that the seat front is in the down position.

Horizontal Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the seat horizontal position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the seat is in the forward position and low values indicate that the seat is in the rearward position.

Julian Date of Build

The scan tool displays a 3-digit number. This number is the day of the year that the module was built.

Lumbar Horizontal Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the lumbar horizontal position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the Lumbar is in the forward position and low values indicate that the lumbar is in the rearward position.

Lumbar Vertical Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the lumbar vertical position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the lumbar is in the up position and low values indicate that the lumbar is in the down position.

Memory Recall Switches

The scan tool displays 0.43-2.74 volts. When the memory 1 switch is pressed, the scan tool will momentarily display 2.74 volts, when the memory 2 switch is pressed, 1.78 volts is displayed, and when the EXIT switch is pressed, 0.96 volts is displayed.

PROM ID

The scan tool displays a 4-digit number. This is the identification number of the PROM that is incorporated into the module.

Rear Vertical Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the seat rear vertical position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the seat rear vertical is in the up position and low values indicate that the seat rear vertical is in the down position.

Recline Sensor

The scan tool displays 0-5.0 volts or 0-255 A/D. The sensor potentiometer provides an analog voltage which varies directly with the seat recline position. High scan tool values (volts or A/D) indicate that the seat recline is in the froward position and low values indicate that the seat recline is in the rearward position.
