5. I/M Readiness One-Click Function
The I/M Readiness One-Click Key on the scan tool shows you
how quickly and easily a novice user can check the I/M
readiness status, MIL state, and DTCs. By simple clicking on
this key, the scan tool automatically checks the emission-related
monitoring systems and reads DTCs. All data shows on one
screen, which provides a simple profile of vehicle at a glance.
There are two modes to show I/M readiness monitor status. You can
configure work modes in the Setup menu. (see 3.7 System Setup)
1) Scan Tool Mode
Scan Tool Mode is the default work mode. In this mode, after the
vehicle‟s monitors have run and completed their diagnosis and testing,
the scan tool will turn to OBDII diagnostic procedures.
NOTE: Only in this mode can you perform the OBDII diagnostics.
2) Ready Test Mode
In this mode, after the vehicle‟s monitors have run and completed
their diagnosis and testing, the scan tool will return to the previous
screen. So it is ONLY used to check the emission-related monitors‟
status.
NOTE: This function reads off the real time data of emission-related
monitoring systems readiness status every two minutes. Once the scan
tool has finished other operations, for example, clearing trouble
codes, and the real time data been changed, the I/M Readiness Status
indication will be changed accordingly. In order to reset these
monitors, the vehicle must be driven through a complete drive cycle.
Times for reset vary depending on vehicle.
