Launch X-431 GDS is a new generation of sophisticated and integrated automotive diagnostic product with colorful screen and powerful functions developed by LAUNCH, and Scopebox is an optional function box for GDS, including automotive oscilloscope and automotive ignition waveform.
Launch X431 GDS Scopebox Accessories:
Scopebox includes the secondary pickup cable for 4-channel oscilloscope, crocodile clips for 4-channel oscilloscope, etc.
As the product configuration can be different, the accessories included with the product may differ from the accessoried listed on this manual. Please see the packing list attached to the product for the detailed accessories.
Automotive oscilloscope can make the auto repair technician quickly judged the faults on automotive electronic equipment and wiring, and the oscilloscope sweep speed is far greater than the signal frequency of such vehicles, usually 5-10 times of the measured signal. The automotive oscilloscope not only can quickly capture the circuit signal, but also can slowly display the waveform to observe and analyze. It can also record and store the tested signal waveform which can be played back to observe for the fast signal, having great convenience to failure analysis. Either high-speed signal (e.g.: injection nozzle, intermittent fault signal) or the slow-speed signal (e.g. the throttle position change and the oxygen sensor signal) can be observed through automotive oscilloscope in an appropriate waveform.
The electronic signal can be compared and judged via measuring five parameters indexes. The five parameters indexes are the amplitude (the maximum voltage of signal), the frequency (the cycletime of signal), the shape (the appearance of signal), the pulse width (the duty cycle or the time range of signal), and the array (the repetition characteristic of signal), which can be tested, displayed, saved by the automotive oscilloscope. Via the waveform analysis can further detect the circuit fault on sensors, actuators, circuits, and electronic control units, etc.
Product features:
1, Rapidly capture the circuit signal.
2, Display waveform slowly for observation and analysis.
3, Record and store the tested signal waveform for playback and failure analysis.
4, Detect, display and store all the electrical signal of five parameters, namely amplitude, frequency, shape, pulse width, and array.
Product functions:
Provides specialized automotive oscilloscope function and supports ignition waveform analysis.
Technical parameters:
Scopebox: 4 channels, highest sampling frequency 150MHZ, max storage depth 64MSa, 8-bit resolution
Automotive Oscilloscope Connection:
Launch X-431 GDS Scopebox should work with the X431 GDS main unit.
1. Firstly, power on the main unit (Connect one end of the power adaptor into the power interface of main unit, and the other end to the DC 12V power supply. Alternatively it can be also powered by cigarette lighter cable and double clip power cord).
2. Then plug one end of ground cable of oscilloscope into external trigger channel (GND), the other end should be grounded.
3. Connect one end of probe cable of oscilloscope to the CH1, CH2, CH3, or CH4 on oscilloscope module, and then connect the other end to related signal terminal.
Warning: please use the specific capacitance probe when diagnosing the ignition high voltage line. Never connect the oscilloscope to the ignition secondary circuit directly.
