The Jaltest JDC301A is the adapter connecting the 9-pin ECS diagnostic connector on Volvo bus chassis to the standard 16-pin OBD2-interface of the Jaltest Link. On the vehicle side, you'll find the 9-pin connector that plugs into the electronically controlled air suspension diagnostic point on the chassis; on the interface side sits the 16-pin OBD2 connector for your Jaltest diagnostic cable.
This cable routes the communication lines through to the Jaltest Link, enabling direct communication with the suspension electronics on the bus chassis. This gives your diagnostic equipment access to ECS, Suspension electronic management and the alternative suspension system ELF, Electronically controlled air suspension. Since the connection point is on the chassis itself, the bus body builder is irrelevant. From Euro IV onwards (October 2005), buses came equipped with the standardized 16-pin OBD connector; if your bus is Euro IV or newer, you won't need this adapter. The cable falls under Jaltest CV (commercial vehicles).
