A personal computer (PC) is connected to the MUTIII unit and used as asystems control terminal, and communicates with a vehicle ECU throughthe V.C.I.. In addition to being able to handle all diagnosis functionscovered by the conventional MUT-II tester, the MUT-III system candisplay data as easy-to-understand diagrams and graphs on a large screenof the PC. Unlike the MUT-II, the MUT-III can retain data on allvehicles, from old to new models, classified according to destination inthe PC's hard disk. This eliminates the awkward but essential job withthe MUT-II, of switching the data list (communications protocol data anddiagnosis item list database) by replacing the ROM pack with anotheraccording to the vehicle model and year model.
New functions thatmake use of the advantages of the PC are also being developed. Forexample, the workshop manual viewer is a useful function for mechanicsas they no longer have to carry around a thick manual and search forrelevant pages while working on a vehicle. The workshop manual viewer iscurrently available for certain vehicle models, and allows users toretrieve the pages containing the failure code for a particular problemat the push of a button.
