Service Inspector

This function allows you to inspect all diagnostic data of an ECU or vehicle for a specific diagnostic request. I.e. the function iterates over all requested parameters of a service request as defined in the diagnostic database, then sends the requests and displays all returned results. The result for the service request will be displayed in clear text. The service requests and all clear text must be defined in the diagnostic database.

Note

In former INCA versions, the "Service Inspector" dialog box was named "ECUIdentification".

This function also allows you to configure the service request and the display of the results.

The window can also be used to generate diagnostic signals for the INCA variable selection (see Diagnostic Signals in the INCA Variable Selection).
