USING THE DRB III (R)
Refer to the DRB III (R) user's guide for instructions and assistance with reading trouble codes, erasing trouble codes, and other DRB III (R) functions.

DRB III (R) ERROR MESSAGES AND BLANK SCREEN
Under normal operation, the DRB III (R) will display one of only two error messages:

User-Requested WARM Boot or User-Requested COLD Boot

If the DRB III (R) should display any other error message, record the entire display and call the Star Center for information and assistance. This is a sample of such an error message display:

User-Requested COLD Boot

Press MORE to switch between this display and the application screen.
Press F4 when done noting information.

DRB III (R) Does Not Power Up (Blank Screen)
If the LED's do not light or no sound is emitted at start up, check for loose cable connections or a bad cable. Check the vehicle battery voltage (data link connector cavity 16). A minimum of 11 volts is required to adequately power the DRB III (R).

If all connections are proper between the DRB III (R) and the vehicle or other devices, and the vehicle battery is fully charged, an inoperative DRB III (R) may be the result of faulty cable or vehicle wiring.





Display Is Not Visible
Low temperatures will affect the visibility of the display. Adjust the contrast to compensate for this condition.
