ALLDATA LLC announces the release of ALLDATA(R)
Repair(SM) S3000, the next generation of the ALLDATA
Repair information product, introducing several new
features aimed at improving efficiencies and
performance.
"The automobile has changed drastically over the past
several years
resulting in a far more complex vehicle," explains Ben
Johnson, ALLDATA
Senior Product Marketing Manager. "With sophisticated
electronic and
interdependent systems, there is, naturally, a greater need
for more
advanced repair information. Because ALLDATA adds more than
a million
pages of data per year to its databases, there is an
increased need for
faster search capabilities and simplicity in navigation. The
new search
feature offers the user an easy-to-use alternative to
conventional
table-of-contents-style navigation."
ALLDATA Repair S3000 searches ALLDATA's entire database of
repair
information for any phrase relative to a specific vehicle.
The results
yield a much greater amount of relevant information than
previous
versions of the software. ALLDATA Repair S3000 is a direct
response to
an evolving aftermarket repair environment. Today's ever-
changing array
of vehicles requires highly skilled technicians with access
to
sophisticated, detailed data. The ALLDATA Repair S3000
search function
will return all appropriate information, including:
technical service
bulletins (TSBs), component locations, diagnostic articles
and more.
Additionally, searches can be easily filtered by information
type.
Another new feature of ALLDATA Repair S3000 allows multiple
articles to
display simultaneously. Users can navigate through the
product,
"pinning" articles along the way to keep them open and
accessible. "To
work effectively, multiple articles may be used during a
diagnostic or
repair procedure," says Johnson. "Take diagnostic trouble
codes, for
example. It is not unusual to need the actual diagnostic
article,
associated TSBs, wiring diagrams, component locations and
other
relevant articles. The advanced features in ALLDATA Repair
S3000 will
allow the user to quickly locate information, then pin the
articles
they need and arrange them on their desktop for greatest
efficiency."
