AUXILIARY METER LEAD
The Auxiliary Meter Lead is used to read the
output of a variety of sensors. It is the signal
input for the O2 Sensor and Throttle Position
Sensor tests, and can be used to measure
"Solenoid Control" Dwell, reluctor outputs,
and other AC and DC signals. It is also the
signal input for the Auxiliary Meter and Volt/
Amp Meter functions. The multipurpose clip
includes a bed of nails and a sharp prod for
use when direct connection to a terminal is
impossible and/or an adapter is unavailable.
VACUUM / PRESSURE SENSORS
The vacuum and pressure sensors allow
measurement of vacuum and pressure in
PSI, millibars, kiloPascals, or inches of
mercury. Instructions for connection and use
are packed with the sensors.
GAS DETECTOR
The Gas Detector module receives power
from, and communicates results to the
Control Module through a 9 conductor cable.
It uses DB-9 male and female connectors
and is wired specifically for this system. This
connection is necessary for emissions
testing. Do not connect this cable or port
to anything except the Gas Detector.
FERRET NETWORK ONLY
This communications connector provides
power and serial communications to external
equipment.
Special leads and program cartridges are
required to utilize this connection. Since
power is applied to some of the connector
pins, this is not intended for direct connection
to a computer without using leads made
specifically for that purpose.
TEMPERATURE PROBE (°C/°F)
Plug the temperature probe and extension
lead into the labeled port on the back of the
Control Module. Set the length-limiting stop
to match the length of the dipstick when
measuring oil temperature. This prevents
inadvertently placing the probe tip in the path
of moving engine parts.
Temperature will be displayed on appropriate
screens when the probe is connected. Use
Diagnostic Center Setup to select whether
temperature is displayed in degrees Celsius
or Fahrenheit.
Temperature Probe (°C/°F)
REMOTE "NEXT"
The Remote "NEXT" button is plugged into
this port. Pressing the button has the same
effect as pressing the NEXT Key on the
Control Module.
DIESEL INJECTION DETECTOR
Plug the Diesel Injection Detector into the
Cylinder #1 port. Instructions for use are
packed with the detector.
THIS IS NOT A CONNECTION THAT CAN BE MADE
