The Jaltest JDC311A connects the 9-pin Sub-D diagnostic connector of Solaris buses to the 16-pin OBD2 input of your Jaltest diagnostic cable. On the vehicle side is a nine-pin Sub-D plug in two rows, housed in a metal shield cover that you secure with two knurled screws. The black cover has a right-angled cable entry; the cable is 28 to 30 cm long.

Once connected, the Jaltest software accesses the bus vehicle network, at the control units that Solaris sources from various suppliers. These are the DMCI engine control, the DIWA and Ecomat transmissions, the brake and air suspension systems, the MTS door control and the ATC climate control. Which units you find depends on the components chosen. The cable works with the Jaltest Link V8.1 and V9 and is covered by Jaltest CV.

ADVANTAGES

✔Reaches the DMCI (Diesel Multi-Controlled Injection) engine control of the fitted DAF engines.
✔The DIWA 3, DIWA 5, Ecomat 2/4 and EcoLife transmissions are also included in the Solaris coverage.
✔The MTS door control and the ECAS BUS / ECAS CAN 2 air suspension with kneeling function are also accessible.
✔Works with the Link V8.1 and V9, and the Sub-D is secured with two knurled screws rather than just a click.

POINTS TO NOTE

✕Which engine, gearbox and brake supplier is fitted in your bus determines which control units Jaltest finds.
✕Only for the 9-pin Sub-D; the plug resembles a computer connector but has its own pin assignment.
✕Buses from Euro IV (October 2005) onwards have the 16-pin OBD connector; you do not need this cable for that.
✕Do not confuse with the JDC310A. That is the cable for Solbus with the round ECAS connector, a different bus brand and a different connection.
