7.3 Waveform Generator
The signal generator is an instrument that simulates the signals of automotive
electronic components. When the VCMI (Vehicle Communication and Measurement
Interface) device is connected with MaxiSys MS919 Tablet, you can open the
Waveform Generator application by taping the Measurement icon on the Home
screen of the tablet and then tapping the waveform generator icon, and perform the
waveform generator-related functions, including simulating automotive sensor
signals and actuator signals.
7.3.1 Safety Information
Follow the instructions below to reduce the risk of injury from electric shock and
prevent equipment damage.
Use the waveform generator only as specified in this manual.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage between connectors or between any
connector and earth ground.
To minimize shock hazard, please connect the device ground input (chassis) to an
electrical ground.
Do not alter the ground connection. Without the protective ground connection, all
accessible conductive parts can render an electric shock.
To avoid electric shock hazard, disconnect power cable before removing covers.
To prevent injury or death, do not use the waveform generator if it appears to be
damaged in any way, and stop use immediately if you are concerned any abnormal
operations.
Inspect the test leads or probes for damage before use.
Use the accessories supplied with the product.
Use the supplied replacement fuses or specified replacement parts.
To prevent damage, always use and store your waveform generator in appropriate
environments.
Do not place the waveform generator in an area that is directly exposed to sunlight
or under high humidity.
Do not tamper with or disassemble the waveform generator, connectors or
accessories. Internal damage will affect performance.
Disconnect waveform generator from power source, vehicle and tablet before
cleaning.
When cleaning the waveform generator, use a damp, soft cloth with mild detergent.
Do not allow water to enter the waveform generator casing
