REL TPS (0 - 100%)

Relative Throttle Position is relative throttle position at normal position.

SECOND AIR (AIR_STAT: UPS, DNS or OFF)

Commanded Secondary Air Status is on newer vehicles and actuators to control pollution control.

UPS - UP STREAM module is demanding that secondary air be added at exhaust manifolds

DNS- DOWN STREAM module is demanding secondary air be added at catalytic converter

OFF - Module is demanding no secondary air to be added.

ST FTRMxy (-100 - 99.22%)

Short-term Fuel Trim Bank calculated value represents the short-term relation of fuel metering on a fuel-injected engine.

NOTE: Short-term Fuel Trim calculated value that has a positive percentage is a rich fuel trim and if a negative percentage is present the fuel trim is lean.

ST FLTRMx (-100 - 99.2%)

Short-term Fuel Trim value represents the short-term relation of fuel metering on a fuel-injected engine.

NOTE: Short-term Fuel Trim value with a positive percentage is a rich fuel trim and if a negative percentage is present the fuel trim is lean.

THR POS (0 - 100%)

Absolute Throttle Position is the position the throttle is located. The more the throttle is closed the less percent shown.

THROT CMD (0 - 100%)

Commanded Throttle Actuator Control is the position of the throttle. If throttle is closed the percent will be 0 and if wide open 100%.

TRIPS SNC CLR (0 - 255)

Number of warm-ups since diagnostic trouble codes cleared. Warm-up is when temperature of coolant rises to at least 22°C (40°F) from engine starting and reaching a minimum temperature of 70°C (160°F). If a disel engine the engine minimum temperature is 60°C (140°F.)

TROUB CODE (00 00 - FF FF)

Trouble Code Parameter will give the diagnostic trouble code that caused a freeze frame capture. This information is helpful in diagnosing the cause of a driveability. If no freeze frame data has been captured this PID will be zero.

VEH SPEED (0 - 255K/h) or (0 - 158mph)

Vehicle Speed shows the speed the vehicle is going.

VPWR (0 - 65.535V)

Control Module Voltage is the power input to the control module.
