Method and system for providing diagnostic filter lists
First Claim
1. A method at a server for outputting a parameter identifier (PID) filter list, comprising:
- receiving, at a server, repair order (RO) data, wherein the RO data comprises data from one or more ROs that indicate particular vehicle identifying information, at least one symptom identifier, and a particular vehicle component;
determining, at the server, symptom-to-parameter-identifier (PID) mapping data based on the received RO data and component-to-PID mapping data, wherein the component-to-PID mapping data maps one or more PIDs from a set of available PIDs for a set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the particular vehicle component, and wherein the symptom-to-PID mapping data maps the one or more PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the at least one symptom identifier;
determining, at the server based on the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles and the symptom-to-PID mapping data, a PID filter list, wherein the PID filter list is associated with the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier, and wherein the PID filter list indicates a symptom-based subset of PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles;
receiving, at the server, a request sent over a communication network from a display device, wherein the request comprises the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier; and
transmitting, by the server over the communication network to the display device, a response to the request, the response comprising the PID filter list.

Abstract
An example method for outputting a PID filter list (PFL) includes: receiving RO data from one or more ROs that indicate particular vehicle identifying information (PVII), at least one symptom identifier, and a particular vehicle component; determining, symptom-to-parameter-identifier (PID) mapping data (MD) based on the received RO data and component-to-PID MD; determining, based on the set of available PIDs for the SOV and the symptom-to-PID MD, a PFL, wherein the PFL is associated with the PVII and the at least one symptom identifier, and wherein the PFL indicates a symptom-based subset of PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the SOV; receiving, a request sent over a communication network from a display device, wherein the request comprises the PVII and the at least one symptom identifier; and transmitting, over the communication network to the display device, a response to the request, the response comprising the PFL.

26. A server comprising:
-
a network communication interface for communicating with a display device over a communication network; and at least one processor coupled to network communication interface and programmed to; receive, at the server, repair order (RO) data, wherein the RO data comprises data from one or more ROs that indicate particular vehicle identifying information, at least one symptom identifier, and a particular vehicle component; determine, at the server, symptom-to-parameter-identifier (PID) mapping data based on the received RO data and component-to-PID mapping data, wherein the component-to-PID mapping data maps one or more PIDs from a set of available PIDs for a set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the particular vehicle component, and wherein the symptom-to-PID mapping data maps the one or more PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the at least one symptom identifier; determine, at the server based on the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles and the symptom-to-PID mapping data, a PID filter list, wherein the PID filter list is associated with the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier, and wherein the PID filter list indicates a symptom-based subset of PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles; receive, at the server, a request sent over a communication network from a display device, wherein the request comprises the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier; and transmit, by the server over the communication network to the display device, a response to the request, the response comprising the PID filter list. - View Dependent Claims (27)

28. A non-transitory computer-readable memory having stored therein instructions executable by one or more processors to cause a server to perform functions comprising:
-
receiving, at the server, repair order (RO) data, wherein the RO data comprises data from one or more ROs that indicate particular vehicle identifying information, at least one symptom identifier, and a particular vehicle component; determining, at the server, symptom-to-parameter-identifier (PID) mapping data based on the received RO data and component-to-PID mapping data, wherein the component-to-PID mapping data maps one or more PIDs from a set of available PIDs for a set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the particular vehicle component, and wherein the symptom-to-PID mapping data maps the one or more PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles identifiable by the particular vehicle identifying information to the at least one symptom identifier; determining, at the server based on the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles and the symptom-to-PID mapping data, a PID filter list, wherein the PID filter list is associated with the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier, and wherein the PID filter list indicates a symptom-based subset of PIDs from the set of available PIDs for the set of vehicles; receiving, at the server, a request sent over a communication network from a display device, wherein the request comprises the particular vehicle identifying information and the at least one symptom identifier; and transmitting, by the server over the communication network to the display device, a response to the request, the response comprising the PID filter list.
