  • Any number of vehicle testing devices can be equipped with such a decentralized diagnostic server device 2a.

  • Vehicle testing devices and universal operating and display units can alternatively be equipped with a uniform decentralized diagnostic server device, and no complex adaptation process to the particular circumstances of the individual vehicle test device is necessary.
  • Control software of the vehicle tester only activate those functions in communication with the electronic control units of the vehicle, which are also required for the respective workstation. This allows easy and convenient handling of the specific vehicle testers or universal operating and display units at specific workstations in the workshop. For the users of the vehicle test equipment at the workplaces, the necessary qualification in dealing with the control unit communication is reduced, since the communication between the electronic control units in the vehicle and the vehicle test equipment can run largely automatically and in the background.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour identifier, diagnostiquer, entretenir et réparer un véhicule (10) dans un atelier, qui comprend les étapes suivantes: brancher un premier appareil de contrôle (3a) en un premier poste de travail (41) et sélectionner une interface de communication mobile (VCI, 1) opérationnelle disponible pour être installée dans un véhicule (10) et comprenant un composant de saisie et d'enregistrement de données (48) et un système serveur pour diagnostics (2) installés sur un serveur central (45) de l'atelier, raccorder une VCI (1) au véhicule (10), établir une liaison de communication entre la VCI (1) et un système serveur central de diagnostic (2) installé sur un serveur central (45) de l'atelier, mémoriser des données d'identification propres au véhicule (10) dans la VCI (1) par l'intermédiaire du système serveur pour diagnostics (2), procéder à de premiers contrôles sur le véhicule (10) au moyen du premier appareil de contrôle pour véhicules (3a) et/ou la VCI (1), découpler le premier appareil de contrôle de véhicule (3a) du véhicule (10) concerné, raccorder un second dispositif de contrôle de véhicule (3b) audit véhicule (10) et extraire les données d'identification de la VCI (1) par l'intermédiaire du système serveur central de diagnostic (2) dans le second appareil de contrôle de véhicule (3b) en un second poste de travail (42) et procéder à de seconds contrôles sur le véhicule (10) au moyen du second appareil de contrôle de véhicule (3b) et/ou de la VCI (1).
