Short description
SAE J2534-1 0500 defines the pass-thru interface requirements for the reprogramming of emission related control modules. The SAE J2534-2/X 0500 document set adds extensions to the SAE J2534-1 0500 API (version 05.00) specification so that the API can be used for features not covered in the SAE J2534-1 0500 specification. Together, these features provide a comprehensive framework for a common standard, to protect the software investment of the vehicle OEMs and scan tool manufacturers. There is no required for an SAE J2534-2/X 0500 pass-thru interface to be fully compliant with SAE J2534-1 0500. SAE J2534-2/X 0500 interfaces can implement some or all of the features specified in the SAE J2534-2/X 0500 document set. This document must be used in conjunction with the SAE J2534-2/RE 0500 document.
