작동 지침

1. Battery Monitoring

Upon successful connection, the app's main screen will display real-time battery data, including:

  • 충전 상태(SoC): 퍼센tage 배터리 충전량.
  • 권tage: 현재 배터리 용량tage.
  • 온도: 배터리 온도.
  • A graphical representation of voltag전자 시간이 지남에 따라.

The app will also indicate if the battery status is "OK" or if there are any abnormalities.

2. 크랭킹 테스트

The Cranking Test evaluates the vehicle's starting system. Follow the in-app instructions:

  1. Ensure the engine is off.
  2. Select "Cranking Test" in the app.
  3. Start the vehicle's engine as instructed by the app.
  4. The app will measure the cranking voltage and time, providing an assessment of the starter's performance.

3. 충전 테스트

The Charging Test assesses the alternator and charging system. This test typically involves three steps:

  1. 유휴 속도 테스트: With the engine idling, turn on all electrical equipment (headlights, AC, car interior lights, etc.) and follow the app's prompts.
