Patent Images
1. A computer that converts data, comprising:
- a processor to process information and operate the computer;
a software stored on a memory of the computer and communicates with the processor;
an input device for entering information into the computer;
a computer readable reader that reads information stored on a computer readable media;
a communication interface that communicates with a remote diagnostic device; and
a system bus that allows communication between the memory, the processor, the input device, the computer readable reader and the communication interface, wherein the software includes a platform module and a data converter module and the software converts a data received from the remote diagnostic device using a conversion formula from the data converter module based on the platform module determination of the data'"'"'s platform.

Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided and include a formula server having formulas and conversion modules that are separate from a diagnostic application of a diagnostic tool. The diagnostic tool receives the diagnostic data and transmits it to a remote computer, where the data is converted using a formula. The resulting data is then transmitted back to the diagnostic tool for display.
