The Mongoose-Plus ISO/CAN3 interface makes a perfect complement to Pico Automotive’s noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) kit and software.
The Mongoose-Plus ISO/CAN3 is a brand new pass-thru device from Opus IVS and replaces the MongoosePro ISO/CAN 2.
The device allows Pico Automotive’s NVH software to acquire key signals, such as the vehicle and engine speeds, directly from a vehicle’s engine control unit.
By combining those with the signals from the sensors available within the NVH kits, the NVH software can identify and display speed-related noise and vibrations.
A Pico Automotive spokesperson said: “As a technician, you get asked to locate and identify sources of nuisance noises, squeaks, bumps, rattles and vibrations etc.
“Depending on your experience, these NVH jobs can fill you with a similar dread to when you are asked to ‘go and find the water leak’ – both can be troublesome because their respective sources might be located well away from where the main symptoms are felt.
“However, in the case of NVH diagnosis, you can give yourself a major head start by using our NVH kit and software in tandem with the newly released Mongoose-Plus ISO/CAN3 pass-thru device.”
The economical and compact Mongoose-Plus ISO/CAN3 interface features industry-leading J2534 pass-thru technology and is an easy-to-use vehicle interface for the reliable acquisition of serial communications signals.
In addition, the Mongoose-Plus pass-thru capabilities enable OBD and, in some cases, vehicle manufacturer diagnostics.
It has a rugged and ergonomic enclosure suitable for use in the workshop environment and a detachable USB cable that allows for easy field replacement.
