Commercial Vehicle Kit
Designed specifically for the testing of vans, trucks and other commercial vehicles, the commercial vehicle version of the award-winning Automotive Diagnostics Kit is centred around the 4-channel PicoScope 3423 Automotive Oscilloscope.
The PicoScope 3423’s fast sampling rate supports the capture and viewing of CAN bus signals, whilst its memory depth of 512 kB means that complex waveforms, such as common rail diesel signals, can be recorded without sacrificing horizontal resolution.
The Pico 2000 A current clamp is included as standard in the Commercial Vehicle Diagnostics Kit. With a DC range of 0-2000 Amps this current clamp is ideal for measuring the high currents drawn by the starter motors of commercial vehicles.
