Real Time Diagnosis In Data Monitor Mode (Recording Vehicle Data) 

1. AUTO TRIG (Automatic Trigger)
   
   The malfunction will be identified on the CONSULT-II screen in real time. In other words, DTC/1st trip DTC and malfunction item will be displayed if the malfunction is detected by ECM. At the moment a malfunction is detected by ECM, "MONITOR" in "DATA MONITOR" screen is changed to "Recording Data ... xx%" as shown. See Fig 6 and the data after the malfunction detection is recorded. Then when the percentage reaches 100%, "REAL-TIME DIAG" screen is displayed. If "STOP" is touched on the screen during "Recording Data ... xx%", "REAL-TIME DIAG" screen is also displayed. The recording time after the malfunction detection and the recording speed can be changed by "TRIGGER POINT" and "Recording Speed". See CONSULT-II operation manual. While trying to detect the DTC/1st trip DTC by performing the DTC confirmation procedure, ensure to select "DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)" mode. You can confirm the malfunction at the moment it is detected. While narrowing down the possible causes, CONSULT-II should be set in "DATA MONITOR (AUTO TRIG)" mode, especially in case the incident is intermittent. When you are inspecting the circuit by gently shaking (or twisting) the suspicious connectors, components and harness in the DTC confirmation procedure, the moment a malfunction is found the DTC/1st trip DTC will be displayed.
2. MANU TRIG (Manual Trigger)
   
   DTC/1st trip DTC and malfunction item will not be displayed automatically on CONSULT-II screen even though a malfunction is detected by ECM. Data monitor can be performed continuously even though a malfunction is detected. If the malfunction is displayed as soon as "DATA MONITOR" is selected, reset CONSULT-II to "MANU TRIG". By selecting "MANU TRIG" you can monitor and store the data. The data can be utilized for further diagnosis, such as a comparison with the value for the normal operating condition.
