Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for graphically monitoring and controlling a vehicle anti-lock brake system is provided. Multiple types of graphical data concerning different aspects of the anti-lock brake system are simultaneously displayed to a technician. Output lights provided as a part of the vehicle anti-lock brake system are graphically emulated on a display terminal. Various vehicle anti-lock brake system components, such as a retarder relay, modulators, indicator lights, and the like, are controllable through a graphical user interface, and both the presence and location of anti-lock brake system faults is graphically indicated to a technician. The method and apparatus also include graphically displaying real-time or previously recorded wheel speed data for all or selected individual wheels connected to a vehicle anti-lock brake system, alone or in combination with other graphical data, and for saving real-time wheel speed data for subsequent review. Communications data sent to and from the anti-lock brake system electronic control unit is also graphically displayed to a technician.
