2.10.1.2.1 LINDE INTERFACE CONVERTER
The Linde interface converter must be used to communicate between the PC and the appropriate LDC digital controller. The digital controller has a 4-pin diagnostics connector which uses the ISO protocol for data transfer. The serial interface of the PC uses the RS232 protocol. The interface converter converts signals between the two protocols , thus permitting communication between the PC and digital controller and vice versa.
The data transfer uses 9600 baud, 8 bit data, 1 stop bit and no parity. The interface converter is connected between the 9 pole sub-D terminal of the serial interface of the PC and the 4 pole AMP-Saab connector to the diagnostics connector on the digital controller. The second 6 pole AMP connector is used for connection to other Linde vehicles (E 10, P 60) which are equipped with a Zapi control system. This latter system has a serial electrical interface for data transfer.
The diagnostic software normally uses the serial interface COM1 of the PC. If this connector is already in use, it is necessary to convert to the COM2 serial interface. This procedure is included in the installation procedures.
The interface converter is delivered with the appropriate diagnostic software.
2.10.1.2.2 INSTALLATION OF THE DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE “TEST & SETUP”
The diagnostic software is available as a master program or as a service program. The master program permits access to all truck parameters. The master program can only be ordered through the customer service school. The service program permits access only to the service functions (fault storage, switching conditions, etc.) and can be ordered from the Linde spare parts organisation.
Both software programs are available as a complete program or as an update program. When a complete program has been installed on a computer, only an update program is required in the future.
The diagnostic software is delivered on 3.5 inch diskettes. The diagnostic software version is identified on the diskette labels. In addition the following is noted; master or service program and if it is a complete program or only an update program.
e.g. Software version: V1.3-P
The diagnostic software is available in German, English or French. The desired language must be selected during the installation process.
The diagnostic software cannot be copied and can only be installed on an appropriate computer once.
Through installation on a computer, the user accepts the conditions of the software license. When a master program is ordered, the updates are provided automatically. Updates for the service program can be ordered from the Linde spare parts organisation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETE PROGRAM (MASTER AND SERVICE PROGRAMS) - Go to the DOS operating system.
- Insert the diskette 1 into the disc drive.
- Select the appropriate disc drive, e.g. disc drive A: and press ENTER.
- INSTALL <source disc drive>: <destination disc drive:> : <language> <serial interface>.
NOTE: The desired language is selected by typing a number after the destination disc drive letter;
1 = German, 2 = English, 3 = French. Furthermore, the correct serial interface must be selected;
1 = COM1, 2 = COM2.
- E.g. For an installation in German on serial interface COM1, type the following command; INSTALL A:
C: 1 1 and press ENTER.
- A directory named “lindiag.dos” will be created in the hard drive and the software on the diskette will now be copied into the directory on the hard disc.
- Insert diskette 2 when prompted and press the RETURN key.
- Type DIAG and press ENTER. A window “TRUCK SELECTION” appears, on which the appropriate diagnostic program can be selected.
- Press the cursor up é or down ê arrow to select the diagnostic program.
- To start the selected diagnostic program press ENTER.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR UPDATE PROGRAM (MASTER AND SERVICE PROGRAMS) NOTE: A software update can only be made when the computer already has a complete program.
- Go to the DOS operating system.
- Insert the diskette 1 into the disc drive.
- Select the appropriate disc drive, e.g. disc drive A: and press ENTER.
- ENTER UPDATE <source disc drive>: <destination disc drive:> : <language> <serial interface>.
- E.g. For an installation in German on serial interface COM1, type the following command; UPDATE A:
C: 1 1 and press ENTER.
- Insert diskette 2 when prompted and press the RETURN key.
2.10.1.2.3 SELECTING THE LINDE PROGRAM - Go to the DOS operating system (root directory c:\).
- Enter cd lindiag.dos.
- Open the window by typing DIAG and press ENTER.
- A window appears with the appropriate programs.
- Press the cursor up é or down ê arrow to select the program.
