Abstract
A vehicle analysis system includes a system analyzer, such as an engine analyzer, having probes that gather data from vehicle parameters such as engine components. The data is converted into digital signals, which are processed into display data and stored in a computer memory. A controller converts the display data into packets that may be transmitted across a communications network to a remote computer using transmission control protocol/Internet protocol.
