The Jaltest JDC561A9 is officially described as a diagnostic cable for Hitachi with Isuzu engines, 8-pin and converts that 8-pin engine connector to the standard 16-pin OBD2-interface. The connector is located in the engine wiring harness at the engine itself, not at the diagnostic port in the cab. The cable measures 30 cm and is designed for use with the Jaltest Link V9.
On the interface side, there is a black 16-pin OBD2 socket with the OBD symbol on the housing. The engine side is identifiable by its shape: a grey, square connector housing with a green sealing ring in the opening, a rubber grommet on the cable and a black overmoulded section behind it. Halfway along, a thinner line branches off to a DC power socket; the 6-pin JDC560A9 has at that point a fully black housing without green sealing. The cable falls under Jaltest OHW (Off-Highway machines).
