Advanced Automotive management systems:
The need to keep up with the ever-changing technology is for mechanics of prime importance. Most workshops tend to turn electronic diagnostic work away. Why? Electronics is as simple as valves, pistons and cam timing gear. The future of repairs is in electronics. The complexity of the engine management systems provides the opportunity of making electronic fault finding a feature of your workshop instead of a liability. Ensure the future and set your workshop apart with the right knowledge, the right information system and the right equipment. Specialise in the field of automotive electronics, before anyone else does. Attend to quality training courses, keep information systems updated and most of all use quality equipment. Quality hand tools are often easy to judge, judging the quality and effectiveness of 'electronic' tools is a different matter.

In this electronics age with its unlimited possibilities the computer is more and more an essential item. The assumption that fault code reading equipment will solve all problems is finally overboard. This equipment, no matter how advanced is relying on what the car (software) manufacturers wants to be available. In most cases not enough time and effort has been put in to the cars own diagnostic system. Plus that the amount of extra wiring would make a perfect fail safe system prohibitive.
Measuring with proper equipment by well trained mechanics seems to be the way more and more.
Brand dealers (e.g. BMW, Fiat, Hyundai, Nissan, Opel, Volvo, VW etc.) are currently world wide being supplied by the manufactures with PC controlled lab scopes to solve electronic system faults more effectively.
The ATS 5000 lab scope: For an automotive Lab scope to be effective it first and foremost needs to be simple and clear to use. The scope needs to be logic so that a logic (mechanics) brain adapts to its use without any effort at all. This so that even after a long period of non-use no self training is required. The 'it all comes naturally' feeling is what we aimed for. This boosts self confidence and reduces precious diagnostic time, both essential items for being effective and profitable. The ATS 5000 lab scope boasts the following features: 1/ Many sample scope patterns on the scope display for overlay. 2/ The scope settings are pre-set per component, so no irritating (available) auto set necessary. 3/ No time consuming "fiddling around" to get the scope right. 4/ A clear system and component description. 5/ 'How to measure' and diagnostic help available on every component. 6/ Simulation and generation of (pre-) recorded signals. |
