Touch screen controls are used for most operations, however the control buttons may also be used to navigate and select functions.

Title Bar
The title bar at the top of the screen provides basic information about current diagnostic tool operating conditions. Title bar options vary depending upon vehicle make and model, what function is active, what test is being performed, or what menu is selected. The title bar contains information only, there are no selectable items.
Elements of the Title bar let you know at a glance:
| ● | Which diagnostic tool function is active |
| ● | The current time |
| ● | Wi-Fi signal strength |
| ● | The source and status of the power being supplied to the diagnostic tool |
A real time clock displays to the left of the power supply icon. The clock is powered by a dedicated internal battery, so the correct time is maintained even when the main battery pack is discharged. Use the Tools function to set the clock and format how time is displayed.
The Title bar displays other information that varies depending upon what functions are being performed. Other information may include:
| ● | The identification (ID) of the test vehicle |
| ● | The name of the active menu or function |
| ● | The name of the test being performed |
