How to calibrate the rotation angle sensor by Launch X431 PAD VII

 

Any of Launch X431 PAD VII, European Euro Tab III, MM4.0 (other devices can buy “Motor Angle Calibration” function in Mall module) can calibrate the rotation angle sensor of the motor for BMW, MINI, Toyota, Lexus, Honda, Acura.

Why it is necessary to calibrate the rotation angle sensor of the motor?

A resolver is a type of rotation angle sensor for controlling the drive motor that is the power source of EVs. By efficiently controlling the motor, power consumption can be suppressed. To control the motor according to various driving conditions of a vehicle, it is necessary to detect the magnetic pole position of the motor and accurately grasp its rotational speed. The resolver serves as a sensor for these tasks.

The speed of the motor that is the heart of the electric vehicle, when the motor is working in a high temperature environment or in a humid, dusty and other environment for a long time, the resolver (rotation angle sensor) is prone to failure. After the failure, the rotation angle sensor signal is faulty, resulting in the motor not working normally, reducing the system reliability, and affecting the normal driving of the vehicle.

At this time, it is necessary to calibrate the rotation angle sensor of the motor.

How to test Engine Power Balance using Launch X431 PAD VII?

图片
  There are a couple of different ways you can go about canceling cylinders. The easiest way is with a scan tool. Some tools have built in the capacity to do a power balance test this way, Launch scanners obtain the crankshaft acceleration data from each power stroke and save them in the order of ignition, then calculate result shows the difference of each cylinder in a graphical form. The Launch scanners that are tested able to monitor Engine Power Balance are X431 PAD VII , European Euro Tab III, MM4.0 (Other devices can buy “Engine Power Balance Monitoring” function in Mall module). And the workable vehicle makes are Hyundai, Kia, GM, Chrysler, Nissan, Infiniti, Honda, Acura, Ford. Why need to test Engine Power Balance? A power balance test locates the cylinder causing a lack of power and not contributing to the engine’s balance and performance. The cause of unequal power balance can mean a problem in the cylinders themselves, as well as in the piston rings, valve...
