(Mr. BOB DLC is Now Finally Available for purchase)
Mr. BOB DLC is not your next door neighbor. This is a complete stand-alone PC Based Electronic Break-out box that connects or T-off to the DLC connector, while at the same time you can also connect a scan tool to the back of the double-sided connector. It comes with a built in double OBD-2 T-type or Pass-Thru connector. The unit lets you view the communication signals as they happen. This is a great way to diagnose faulty communications issues, defective network node/module that's bringing down the entire network, ECM-Ground faults, Starter, Alternator and the pesky open and short circuited module. With Mr. BOD DLC you don't need any other piece of equipment to diagnose these problems. Just connect to the DLC, connect a scan-tool if needed, start the software and view all signal waveforms on the PC screen. You can view the communication signals, power and ground in various formats, such as Oscilloscope-type, digital and Bar-graph. Take care of all your network, ECM-ground and Power feed problems in a blink of an eye with Mr. BOB DLC.
Choose from 6 software sections. 8 Graphing Voltmeter/Scope custom made channels for Mr. BOB DLC and the OBD-2 connector, OBD-2 DLC pin-out section with built-in diagrams and short videos, DLC power tests section with automated fault detection, Ground testing section which allows sensor and chassis ground fault detection from your PC computer, Starter/alternator manual and automated fault detection with troubleshooting videos right from the DLC connector, and network waveform sample section, which works great with the scope/graphing section. In other words, all you'll ever need to perform extensive vehicle network testing right from your PC and through the DLC. If you had to buy all the test equipment needed to do the tasks done by Mr. BOB DLC, you'd easily spend thousands. With Mr. BOB DLC all you need is a PC/Laptop, with which you are probably running your scan tool right now. That's it.
Mr. BOB DLC is now available and ready for purchase. This unit, as most of our equipment is also software upgradeable. Buy now and your next software update is Free. Updating is easy, just download the future updates in a Zipped folder, right click to unzip and then double click the setup file inside. That's it, easy and fast.
Click for each Mr. BOB DLC Software screen-shots below:
Mr. BOB DLC start up screen. Here you can also seek help, view version number, website and continue button.
Just click the GREEN "Start Graphing" button (lower
left) and you're ready. Mr. BOB DLC GRAPHING-SCOPE section, with 8 channels to
choose from. Mr. BOB allows for up to 8 simultaneous channels to be graphed at
the same time. IF THE GRAPHS ARE TOO SMALL; then no problem. Simply click the
side BLUE CHANNEL button to the left to enlarge the graph. You can also go into
a high speed graphing mode by clicking the RED button at the lower right. A
scaling with Min/Max can also be seen in black.
Here
we can see Channel-3 in the enlarged mode. By clicking the BLUE channel button
to the left again, you then go back into the 8 channels mode. Is that simple.
The Power Test section, as you can see, has fully automated software fault detection logic. It is constantly monitoring the POWER FEED circuits at both, the Battery connection and DLC Pin-16 (power Pin). This alone is the cause for many communications problems. Not only does it check voltage levels, but also subtle transients, ripple, voltage glitches and more.
YES!!! Ground testing is also available, in an automated format, in Mr. BOB. You can also use Mr. BOB to test all GROUND circuits, which cover Pin-4 and Pins-5. These are very important. Pins-4 is chassis ground and Pin-5 is ECM or engine computer ground. You don't even have to connect a scan tool to Mr. BOB to test ground faults. Just connect, click the Start-Graphing button (green) and you're ready. No complicated controls to set and no learning curve.
Extensive HELP is also provided with Mr. BOB. What kind of help? Dedicated troubleshooting 1 to 3 minute videos, diagrams, and sample waves. DLC diagnostics is not complicated, but the ins and outs of the different protocols is a bit confusing. That what these videos are for.
A section fully devoted to testing Start and Alternator problems. Why and How? The DLC connector is completely tied to all power and ground circuitry in a modern vehicle. By using the right software algorithms, graphing and visual interface Mr. BOB can detect and pinpoint many impending faults. And all in an automated mode, running on the background.
Some sample waveforms are included in a special section in Mr. BOB. Although Mr. BOB is a graphing meter with scope like features, these waveforms can be used to show the differences between the different protocols.
Yes, as we promised, Mr. BOB does have an extensive arsenal of embedded 1 to 4 minute video collection. These troubleshooting videos are accessible right from Mr. BOB and play in a Windows Media Player format. Easy and simple. These videos are custome made for Mr. BOB and found nowhere else.
System requirements: Windows XP or Windows Vista. Pentium-4 or above microprocessor. Runs on almost any PC or Laptop built within the last 10 years.
