Actron 9640 Manuel D’Utilisation

The Playback function is used to playback a Record Data recording. This 

function is very similar to View Data. The only difference is that View Data is 

a real time viewing of PIDs, while Playback is a viewing of previously recorded 

PIDs.

Select Playback from the Review Data 

screen and press 

ENTER:

✓

If a recording does not exist in the tool memory, then the tool will display

Select which list to playback. Refer to 

The Scan Tool for Entire or Custom 

Data Lists.

The Playback screen has a Vehicle 

Data List header to mark the beginning of the data list. The recorded PIDs are 

displayed next. Line 4 displays the Frame number and Time in seconds.

• Use  the 

UP/DOWN arrow keys to 

scroll through the data line by line. 

The end of the list is reached when 

the 

DOWN arrow icon is not visible. 

• The 

LEFT/RIGHT arrow keys are 

used to increase or decrease the 

Frame/Time index. Time 0.0 is the 

trigger point, when the user pressed 

ENTER. A time interval with a minus 

sign (–) occurs before the trigger point.

• The tool recording time varies. A recording consists of 5 frames of data prior 

to the trigger and several frames after the trigger. The number of PIDs 

recorded will determine the number of frames.

 

✓

After reaching the last time interval recorded. The Time display will

change from data recorded after trigger to data recorded before. This is

normal. The 

LEFT/RIGHT arrows may be used to scroll through all time

intervals in either direction. 

✓

Some vehicles will wait 3 to 4 minutes after the driveability problem first

occurs before storing a trouble code in the vehicle’s on-board computer.

If you selected Trigger On Codes when you made your recording, you

might not see any drastic change in data parameters before and after the

trigger point. In cases like this, it is better to manually trigger the start of

the recording when the driveability symptom is first observed.

✓

To change the selections of Custom Data List parameters, press the

BACK key. This will return to the Custom Data List selection display

screens. When done, press 

BACK to return to Review Data or FUNC to

return to the GM Function List.
