The Jaltest JDC620A connects the 8-pin diagnostic connector of MAN marine diesel engines to the 16-pin OBD2 port of your Jaltest diagnostic cable. On the engine side there is a round screw connector: a nickel-plated sleeve with external thread and a knurled grip, containing eight gold-plated pins in a black housing. The connection is located at the engine or in the engine wiring harness; the cable is 28 to 30 cm long.
With the connector screwed on, the Jaltest software communicates with the control units of the engine installation: the common rail engine control EDC 7 C3, the dual version EDC 7 Master/Slave C3/C32 of the V-engines, the engine control interface SFFR, and the throttle and reverse gear control Marex OS II CR-MCP. In addition to reading out, activating components, parameters, calibrations and resets are also included. The cable is covered by Jaltest Marine.
