1 Global TechStream Software Overview

2 Global Techstream (GTS) Software GTS is the new generation diagnostics tool developed by Toyota Motor Corporation. Unlike the current diagnostic tool, Intelligent Tester II, GTS is a PC-based diagnostic tool. It consists of two components: GTS software and Vehicle Interface Module (VIM). GTS software is at the core of the diagnostic tool, and VIM is the communication gateway between GTS software and vehicle s ECUs. These components enable technicians to diagnose and reprogram the vehicles. Service Stall Service Stall Features Windows-based software for Toyota/Lexus vehicles Requires Vehicle Interface Module (VIM) to connect the vehicle Legacy Model support with DLC3 (OBDII) connector from 1996 to present Apply all the Intelligent Tester II function except Oscilloscope and Voltage meter User friendly GUI - more understandable Graphing, displaying DTCs in all systems etc. with PC screen Bigger data storage than IT-II to save Data List, DTCs etc. 2
