8 ECUsim™ 5100 User Guide
3.0 Basic Operation
ECUsim is configured at the factory according to your specifications (number
of PIMs, assigned protocols) and is ready to be used out of the box. For
custom configuration, see Section 5.0, PIM Configuration.
3.1 Setup
To set up the simulator, follow these steps:
1. Use the Configuration DIP switch to set the desired options.
2. Plug the power supply into an available electric outlet.
3. Plug the 12 volt end of the power supply into the power jack of the
simulator.
4. Select the desired PIM using the PIM Select switch. The
corresponding LED on the front panel will turn green.
5. Connect the OBD connector of your OBD tester or OBD interface to
the DLC.
3.2 Using the Simulator
Once the simulator is set up and configured, you can use the PIM Select switch
on the back of the unit, to switch between PIM1, PIM2, and PIM3. When you
switch to a new PIM, two things should happen:
1. The corresponding PIM indicator LED should change from red to
green.
2. The Power, Link, and MIL LEDs will turn on and off in sequence, as the
PIM starts up.
To generate a malfunction event, press the FAULT button.
The Link light should be flashing or dimming as the messages are exchanged
between the tester and the simulator.
