Patent number: 11275491Abstract: A method and system to perform functions including receiving a selection of a vehicle operating condition (VOC) and multiple data parameters from a vehicle. The functions include determining that a first data parameter of the multiple data parameters indicates an occurrence of the VOC. The functions include displaying, on a display, a time-based indicator, a VOC indicator pertaining to the VOC in proximity to the time-based indicator, and a first graphical representation of a first portion of the multiple data parameters from the vehicle. The first portion of the multiple data parameters from the vehicle does not include the first data parameter. The functions further include receiving a selection of the displayed VOC indicator, and displaying, in response receiving a selection of the VOC, a second graphical representation of a second portion of the multiple data parameters. The second portion of the multiple data parameters includes the first data parameter.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2020Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignee: Snap-on IncorporatedInventors: Joshua Covington, April Reynald

Patent number: 10956003Abstract: Methods and system pertaining to displaying vehicle data parameters (VDP) are described. A vehicle service tool (VST) with a display can receive vehicle data messages or signals from a vehicle to receive the VDP. Some of the VDP can be associated with a PID. The VST can display VDP thresholds and indicators when a received VDP has breached a VDP threshold. The VST can determine being changed from a landscape orientation to a portrait orientation or vice versa and responsively change the presentation of VDP graphs displayed by the display. The display can receive various inputs such as a drag-and-drop or pinch-and-expand input to alternatively change the presentation of the VDP graphs being displayed. Changing a VDP presentation of graphs can include resizing or repositioning one or more VDP graph windows including a VDP graph.Type: GrantFiled: November 3, 2014Date of Patent: March 23, 2021Assignee: Snap-on IncorporatedInventors: Joshua Covington, April Reynald
