•
A-Z Sort—lists parameters alphabetically in ascending order

Z-A Sort—lists parameters alphabetically in descending order

buttons.

Any locked parameters are unlocked whenever a selection is made from the Sort button.
Customizing the Data List
The
Custom Data List
button on the toolbar is used to determine which specific parameters
display. Minimizing the number of parameters on the data list allows you to focus on any
suspicious or symptomatic data parameters. Most parameters can be removed from the list.
Certain vital parameters, such as RPM, cannot be removed. These appear in gray at the top of the
list along with a lock icon and cannot be selected.
IMPORTANT:
Limiting the number of parameters that display results in a faster data refresh rate, and reduces
the amount of memory used for saved files.
