The first half of the program is the licensing of our copyright material. This allows you to request excerpts or entire text and diagram sections of our books to be able to make photo copies for the purpose of student handouts. We license this information absolutely free so long as our copyright and website appears somewhere on the printed handouts.

The second part of our teacher/instructor program is the newly finished (Scan-1, Virtual-Engine and Component-Simulation) section. These software components are entirely free of charge. The Scan-1 is a full fledged OBD-2 scanner with extensive diagnostic capabilities. You even have the ability to view O2 (Oxygen Sensor) signals in full simulated-graphing mode.

The other two sections of this software are the Virtual-Engine, which allows you to change PID or engine parameters (ect, map, maf, load, etc) and have these values reflected on the scanner window/section. The idea is to show the student how the scan tool values change as the engine output also changes. This integrated feature (scanner and virtual engine) can go along way in exposing many diagnostic principles.

The third part of the software is the Component-Simulation window/section. This section is also totally integrated to the Scan-1 and Virtual-Engine. The Component-Simulation section shows various oscilloscope waveforms and wiring diagrams for the different components on an engine as you keep varying the engine output values. Within this section you'll see actual changing waveforms and interactive wiring diagrams. The interactive wiring diagrams exposes the student in a very simple way the behavior of the electrical circuit.
