Introduction
7X1700 Communication Adapter GroupThe 7X1700 Communication Adapter Group is a hand held diagnostic tool designed to be an interface or bridge between non-compatible serial communications links.It allows for communication between the industry standard SAE J1708 protocol over an EIA RS485 data link (ATA), the proprietary CAT data link, and the industry standard RS232 data link.The 7X1700 Communication Adapter Group will be used with diagnostic service tools such as the Electronic Control Analyzer Programmer (ECAP) or Digital Diagnostic Tool (DDT) to communicate to an Electronic Control Module (ECM) that is using the CAT data link.It can also communicate with the RS232 data link which personal computers utilize as their standard.7X1700 Communication Adapter Group
