Ducati Diavel Service Manual: Description of the diagnosis instrument (dds)
The "dds" diagnostic system lets you diagnose any faults in the injection-ignition system via a serial port. The system is also equipped with functions to test various devices on the motorcycle. The dds diagnosis instrument can be used to measure current and voltage on any electrical device, to perform tests on individual components and to measure pressure and temperature values.
The dds (1) part number 97900.0215 Consists of a palmtop display (a), a bbad self-diagnosis module (b) and a display memory card (c).
The touch-screen display unit (a) serves for both data display and input, using the stylus housed on the side of the unit.
The self-diagnosis module (b) enables communication between the dds diagnosis instrument (1) and the motorcycle’s on-board electronic control unit (ecu).
The user interface software resides in the display memory card (c) which is housed in the palmtop display unit (a).
The display unit is equipped with two connection panels: one at the top of the instrument and one at the bottom.
The top connection panel has 6 connection sockets with the following functions:
- One vga output (e);
- One port for connection of the measurement module (f);
- One rs232 serial port for connection of peripheral devices (com1) (g);
- A second rs232 serial port for connection of peripheral devices (com2) (h);
- Two generic usb ports (usb1 and usb2) (l).
The bottom connection panel has 3 connection sockets with the following functions:
- One usb port (m);
- One power connection socket (n);
- One diagnostics connection socket (p).

Introduction
This instrument allows you to measure resistance, voltages, and current
values. Multimeters can be divided into two basic
types: analogue and digital display multimeter. An analogue m ...
Tester power supply
The dds (1) part number 97900.0215 Can be powered from the vehicle as
follows:
From the mains power supply: by connecting the power supply connector
(n) to the network power supply (2) pa ...
Other materials:
Ground connection locations
The negative cable, which is normally connected to the negative pole of the
battery, is fastened to the crankcase. From here, the cable
branches off and splits up within the electrical system to carry the ground
connection to the different elements in the system.
The image shows the ground ...
Warning indication (alarms/signals)
The instrument panel activates in real-time some warnings /
malfunction that are not dangerous for the correct operation
of the vehicle.
At key-on (at the end of the check) one or more "warnings"
are displayed if they are active.
When a "warning" is triggered, the indica ...
Refitting the expansion tank
If the support (15) has been removed, place the hose clamps (14) on the
bracket (15) orienting them as indicated.
Fully press the pins (a) to block the clamps (14) until pins surfaces (b) are at
the same level of the clamps (14) surfaces.
Apply recommended threadlocker to the thread of the ...
