Emissions Readiness 
The Emissions Readiness dialog box displays the last recorded status of the emissions readiness codes 
for every vehicle in the CarChip Database. Use this dialog box to view whether or not a particular 
readiness code is supported for the vehicle and whether or not the monitor completed its test for each of 
the available readiness codes. A readiness code is used to indicate whether or not monitored emissions 
control systems have been tested by the OBDII system. Each emissions control system has its own 
monitor and related code. Some emission control components are tested continuously throughout a trip 
and others are tested intermittently when predetermined operating conditions are met.  
Note: The readiness code database displays readiness codes from the last recorded trip for every CarChip 
and assigned vehicle in the database. One readiness code record is available for each assigned vehicle. 
To organize trip type information: 
1.  Select Emissions Readiness from the Tools menu.  The 
Readiness Code
 dialog box is displayed.
