TMC Executive Director Robert
Braswell said making the RPs
available in TruckSeries will help
increase the number of maintenance
professionals adopting the
industry-recommended practices,
improving the industry.
" We are all working toward one
common goal-to increase
equipment maintenance
efficiencies for the commercial
truck industry, " Braswell
said. " And merging the
content into TruckSeries
will help us disseminate
this valuable information
throughout the industry. "
TruckSeries is updated
monthly, so if any RPs are
added or updated after the
annual meeting, the software
will have that new guidance
in short order.
" We are all
working
toward one
common goal-
to increase
equipment
maintenance
efficiencies for
the commercial
truck industry. "
TMC Executive Director
Robert Braswell
" Even with old-style book manuals,
we used to bookmark one diagram
when we needed to research another.
Now, we can seamlessly navigate
between them, following the circuit
we're interested in without sacrificing
efficiency. "
As electric vehicles, which have
even more complex wiring than
modern trucks, appear in the shops,
speeding up the troubleshooting
process will be even more valuable.
This was a primary reason Mitchell
1 made the investment to upgrade
the application, Johnson sad.
Advanced Interactive Wiring
Diagrams also includes a history
section of the last 10 diagrams.
The new features create " a lot
more likelihood the technician is
going to stay on the circuit that they
really need to be on for the whatever
diagnosis that they're doing, "
Johnson surmised.
New wire-to-wire
navigation feature
Mitchell 1 also updated
TruckSeries' Advanced Interactive
Wiring Diagrams. The
feature allows a technician
to lock in on one wire and
follow it throughout a system
from one diagram to another.
This does not exit the
technician from the initial
view opened in TruckSeries
to complete the diagnostics
task. Having to backtrack
and reopen windows slows
the diagnosis down, and over
the course of the day can add
up to a lot of lost productivity.
" With electronically
distributed wiring diagrams,
there has always been this
challenge when one diagram
ends and another needs to
be accessed, " Johnson noted.
