Application of Earliest DS202 Trials to Auto Maintenance

     First of all, I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the forum for giving me such a nice gift when DSO202 samples are launched. I’m a specialist in auto maintenance. So it is essential for me to be expect at using oscilloscopes. When the DS203 was launched, I intended to buy one. But the product adopts physical buttons, which are not user-friendly. So I didn’t buy it. Instead, I keep using the earlier product- the Redbox MT3500 Special-purpose Oscilloscope.

    I got the gift on 2nd of Oct. from SF Express. After I unpacked the package, I found the trial version of DS202 was exquisite. The only flaw, I think, is the crooked and cocked rims. But it doesn’t matter. It won’t affect the functions. Following the instructions in the QQ group on DS202 trials step by step, I learned how to use it. It’s pretty handy. I tried to WAVE OUT the wave forms. They were distinctively visible in high resolution. It’s awesome. Soon I excitedly measured the wave forms from the automobile sensor of a Suzuki Swift owned by the company I worked for, only to find I was far from being familiar with DS202. I used to use the special-purpose oscilloscope which could measure the wave forms directly. Now, I need to manually adjust the perimeters in a 202. So when I first got the 202, I met many problems such as improper adjustment of the horizontal and vertical time base leading to failure or fault in wave-form display. Despite these problems, I would like to thank WOLF-head of DS202 QQ group, YE Hui-senior technician for BMW maintenance from the expect panel of the magazine-Auto Maintenance Technicians, and ZHU Di-owner of the online store on Taobao-itfans.taobao.com for their kind guidance and instruction.
   
Now let me share with you the strengths and weaknesses of the DS202 sample by analyzing the some wave forms I measured from the auto sensors, actuators, electric parts, the CAN-BUS and the LIN-BUS.
1. Correct wave forms for the fuel injector


2. Erroneous wave forms for the wheel velocity sensor


3. Wave forms for the throttle valve

Thanks for sharing,buddy. I’m getting increasingly familiar with DS202 as I run more experiments on it.

    It would be much appreciated if you could shed some light on my problem. A few days ago, my GL8 broke down with the ABS light on. The fault code showed that something was wrong with the right front wheel velocity sensor. But when I tried to measure wave forms for the left front wheel velocity sensor with the AC coupling, they failed to display. FYI: the sensor of this car is integrated with the bearing.
