Method and system for displaying PIDs based on a PID filter list
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- determining, by a display device, identifying information for a vehicle to be serviced;
receiving, at the display device, at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle;
sending, by the display device, a request over a communication network to a remote server for a functional test filter list for the vehicle, the request comprising the identifying information for the vehicle and the at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle;
receiving, at the display device, a response to the request over the communication network from the remote server, the response comprising the functional test filter list for the vehicle, wherein an ordered list of multiple functional tests is stored on the display device, wherein each functional test of the ordered list of multiple functional tests corresponds to a respective value of a functional test index including multiple values, wherein the functional test filter list for the vehicle comprises at least one value into the ordered list of multiple functional tests, and wherein the at least one value includes some but not all values of the functional test index;
determining, by the display device based on use of the functional test filter list for the vehicle received in the response to make a selection of at least one functional test but not all functional tests from the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the display device, a symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle, wherein the symptom-based subset of functional tests comprises at least one functional test that corresponds to the at least one value into the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the display device;
displaying, by the display device on a display interface, the symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle; and
transmitting instructions, by the display device to the vehicle, to perform a particular functional test on the vehicle, the particular functional test being one of the at least one functional test selected from the symptom-based subset of functional tests displayed on the display interface.

Abstract
An example method includes determining identifying information for a vehicle to be serviced. The method further includes receiving at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle. The method further includes sending a request over a communication network to a remote server for a PID filter list for the vehicle, the request comprising the identifying information for the vehicle and the at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle. The method additionally includes receiving a response to the request over the communication network from the remote server, the response comprising the PID filter list for the vehicle. The method further includes determining, based on the PID filter list for the vehicle, a symptom-based subset of PIDs for the vehicle from a set of available PIDs. The method additionally includes displaying, on a display interface, the symptom-based subset of PIDs for the vehicle.

24. A display device, comprising:
-
one or more processors; a non-transitory computer readable medium; and program instructions stored on the non-transitory computer readable medium and executable by the one or more processors to; determine identifying information for a vehicle to be serviced; receive at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle; send a request over a communication network to a remote server for a functional test filter list for the vehicle, the request comprising the identifying information for the vehicle and the at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle; receive a response to the request over the communication network from the remote server, the response comprising the functional test filter list for the vehicle, wherein an ordered list of multiple functional tests is stored on the display device, wherein each functional test of the ordered list of multiple functional tests corresponds to a respective value of a functional test index including multiple values, wherein the functional test filter list for the vehicle comprises at least one value into the ordered list of multiple functional tests, and wherein the at least one value includes some but not all values of the functional test index; determine, based on use of the functional test filter list for the vehicle received in the response to make a selection of at least one functional test but not all functional tests from the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the display device, a symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle, wherein the symptom-based subset of functional tests comprises at least one functional test that corresponds to the at least one value into the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the display device; display, on a display interface, the symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle; and transmit instructions, to the vehicle, to perform a particular functional test on the vehicle, the particular functional test being one of the at least one functional test selected from the symptom-based subset of functional tests displayed on the display interface.

25. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein instructions executable by one or more processors to cause a computing system to perform functions comprising:
-
determining identifying information for a vehicle to be serviced; receiving at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle; sending a request over a communication network to a remote server for a functional test filter list for the vehicle, the request comprising the identifying information for the vehicle and the at least one symptom identifier for the vehicle; receiving a response to the request over the communication network from the remote server, the response comprising the functional test filter list for the vehicle, wherein an ordered list of multiple functional tests is stored on the non-transitory computer readable medium, wherein each functional test of the ordered list of multiple functional tests corresponds to a respective value of a functional test index including multiple values, wherein the functional test filter list for the vehicle comprises at least one value into an ordered list of multiple functional tests, and wherein the at least one value includes some but not all values of the functional test index; determining, based on the functional test filter list for the vehicle received in the response to make a selection of at least one functional test but not all functional tests from the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the non-transitory computer readable medium, a symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle, wherein the symptom-based subset of functional tests comprises at least one functional test that corresponds to the at least one value into the ordered list of multiple functional tests stored on the computing system; displaying, on a display interface, the symptom-based subset of functional tests for the vehicle; and transmitting instructions, to the vehicle, to perform a particular functional test on the vehicle, the particular functional test being one of the at least one functional test selected from the symptom-based subset of functional tests displayed on the display interface.
