Automotive scan tools are actually small computers run by programs like all other computers. Computers themselves, when demythologized, emerge from the fog as remarkably simple devices that think in 1’s and 0’s. They’re not that smart. The true “intelligence” and complexity of any machine ALWAYS lies with the program within. Red Hill Supply encourages our clients to keep this foremost in mind when purchasing automotive scan tools and software. The device you purchase is simple electronics; the automotive scan tool software that drives the device is the true servant of enterprise. When purchasing automotive scan tools and software, evaluate first the frequency with which you either personally or professionally encounter technological and mechanical change, and choose automotive scan tools with software upgrade options that will adapt an existing unit to new industry developments without requiring unit replacement with each advance in technology.

Pro-link scan tools and software offer you countless benefits in application and upgrade capabilities. Keynote features range from diesel engine fault ECU input monitoring, programmable EEPROM data, and comprehe

nsive database storage of all proprietary OEM specifications. Pro link scan tool software packages offer comprehensive diagnostics on Detroit Deisel DDEC I/II electronic engine controller systems, Bendix ABS and ATC systems, Volvo VED 12systems, and even Mack Trucks with V-MAC II and Marine engine troubleshooting for boats! Each of these Pro link software packages proactively anticipates the many complex problems that can arise from increasingly complex technology. You can also expect to benefit from specific diagnostic capabilities such as ECU input and output status monitoring, displayed data parameters in either English or metric readout, user-created custom data lists, and clear diagnostic fault codes and compression testing options. This is only a sampling of the many features we offer that generate clear benefit for both private owners and professional automotive technicians.

The first time buyer normally asks the obvious and intelligent question, “When do I know it’s time to upgrade my pro link scan tool software?” In all fairness we have to pass that question back to you. Need and circumstance determine upgrade requirements more than any generic feedback can advise. Personal vehicle owners normally upgrade their automotive scan tool with new software when they purchase their next vehicle. Professionals face more variables and greater frequency of upgrade because they service multiple vehicles of diverse make and model, and they face industry changes every day as a standard course of business. Each time the government requires a new safety feature and issues a set of safety compliance standards regulating its performance, vehicle technicians will need to upgrade pro-link scanning tools with software that can effectively diagnose safety devices and proactively identify potential malfunctions. If you run a service shop, make especially certain that your automotive scan tool software reflects the latest safety compliance laws. Not only must you observe these standards due to governing authority, but the problematics of insurance can only harm your business if you neglect to upgrade your software and later find yourself held liable for an accident outdated technology failed to prevent. Please do not assume that this cannot happen to you because it already has to someone in the world today. It does not, however, have to repeat itself in your personal world or the lives of your clients.

It simplifies life and better serves outcome to simply upgrade automotive scan tool software anytime you learn of a feature that specifically addresses a change or new type of problem you encounter. Automotive scan tool software loads into the unit via CD or a plug and play card similar to software and expansions cards on PC’s and laptops. The process is simple. The results will astound you and serve you well.
