MCPR
Generally, we need a mechanic to detect the fault of the vehicle by checking physically the automobile parts like the brakes, engine, clutch, accelerator, electronic control module, etc .But MCPR is an application which detects all the faults of the vehicle without the presence of any mechanic by merely running the MCPR application in a system (laptop/Palmtop, etc) while connected to the module or the vehicle. Appropriate coding/programs is written for the modules and accordingly the tests are run. The MCPR is broadly divided into 2 categories: IDS & PDS.
IDS
Integrated Digital System - It’s an MCPR application which runs on Desktop or laptop and is connected to the Control unit of the vehicle through the Data Link Communicator cable .Thus the test runs and detects the fault of the vehicle present and displays the fault list in the screen of the Laptop or desktop.
PDS
Portable Digital System - It’s also an MCPR application which runs on portable devices like PDA, Palmtop, Blackberry, etc and this is connected to the control unit of the vehicle through a DLC cable and a Cancase. As soon as the test runs, it displays all the faults of the vehicle in the PDA or palmtop screen.
