Typical Diagnostic functions

ECU information• General information, including part #, software versions etc.

Fault code memory• ECU continuously tests itself and logs anomalies into its Fault memory

Real-time (Live) data• Sensor data, calculated data and other input/output variables

Output activations• actuate or switch on/off the individual outputs

Adaptation and Calibration• adapted values, sensor calibrations etc.

Coding• individualization and parameter settings.. E.g. km vs. miles

Programming• updating the firmware (operational software, maps etc.)

Practical Example

I work as a Dealer Technician for BMW and since I have used your GS-911 I have solved some really hard to find problems by using the data-logging utility!!

My personal opinion is that BMW should use your GS-911 as standard equipment in their workshops! Your tool has saved us both time and a lot of money !!

- BMW Dealer Tech, Europe


Fault finding… practical example 1

A BMW dealership in had the following problem• R1200RT • Occasionally the engine would cut out (“engine stopped suddenly running!”)• Occurs once every few hundred kilometers!• Owner would wait 5 to 10 minutes and the engine would start again!

By this time…• Bike had been in the dealership several times• Checked and passed all sensors with the GT1• “And even some parts that we actually did not think could cause the problem !”• All in conjunction with the Technical Help Desk• …Owner was not a happy camper!

Dealer Tech got hold of a GS-911• Connected GS-911 and logged real-time values for several trips• Once the problem reoccurred, he studied the logged data
