1.1 Product overview

RP1210 is a standard protocol that defines a set of APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) for communicating with vehicle networks. These APIs allow software applications to interact with a variety of vehicle systems, including the engine, driveline, braking system, etc. The RP1210 standard was developed by the Truck and Bus Manufacturers Association of America (TMC) to simplify the process of vehicle diagnostics and maintenance by providing a uniform method of accessing vehicle data.

The RP1210 standard supports a variety of vehicle communication protocols, including CAN (Controller Area Network), ISO15765, and others. It also supports a variety of hardware interfaces such as USB, serial, and Ethernet for connectivity with different types of Vehicle Communication Adapters (VCIs).

Software applications that use the RP1210 standard can perform a variety of functions, such as reading and clearing fault codes, monitoring real-time data, performing diagnostic tests, and more. These functions are important for vehicle maintenance and troubleshooting to help ensure vehicle reliability and performance.

The standard version used for this product is RP1210C.
