Jaltest Data-Link

Jaltest Data-Link — RP1210 Pass-Through Interface for OEM Software

The Jaltest Data-Link (SKU 70001021, MSRP $875) is a single, universal RP1210-compliant pass-through tool that lets you run any OEM diagnostic software on a Windows PC — without buying a separate interface for each brand. If your shop is already paying for OEM subscriptions (Cummins Insite, Detroit Diesel, Allison DOC, etc.), this is the hardware that replaces the pile of brand-specific cables and dongles on your bench.

What's in the Kit

• Jaltest DATA-LINK Interface (part 70001018)
• USB cable with latching connector (JDC107.9) — locks in place so a bump won't kill your session mid-diagnostic
• Deutsch 6-pin cable (JDC211A)
• OBD V9 cable (JDC223.9)
• Deutsch 9-pin SAE J1939 Type 2 green V9 cable (JDC227.9)
• Transport hardcase for road calls and shop storage

Protocol Support

• RP1210 — the industry standard for trucking OEM software compatibility
• SAE J1708
• SAE J1939
• OBD-II / ISO 15765

Bluetooth-Enabled

Connect wirelessly from your PC to the truck — useful when you need to move around the vehicle during active tests without being tethered by a USB cable.

Generic Truck Diagnostics Included — Even With an Expired License

The Data-Link ships with Generic Truck Diagnostics software for all-makes coverage. This lets you read and clear fault codes and pull diagnostic reports on most commercial trucks even if you let a Jaltest software license expire. It's a useful fallback that keeps the tool productive between subscription renewals.

Unlimited PC Installations

Install the Jaltest software on as many shop PCs or laptops as you need. No per-seat licensing fees.

Upgrade Path

• Add Jaltest INFO for wiring diagrams, component locations, and technical service data: $795/year (part 29465)
• Upgrade to full Jaltest CV (commercial vehicle all-systems coverage) via part 78901076 at $5,700, or add the CV license via part 293209 at $3,000
• Note: The Data-Link hardware cannot be combined with other Jaltest software modules (OHW, Marine, MHE, AGR). The only software upgrade path is to Jaltest CV.

Who Should Buy the Jaltest Data-Link?

This tool is the right call for shops that are already invested in OEM software subscriptions and need one reliable, RP1210-compliant interface to run all of them. It's also a clean entry point for shops that want basic all-makes fault code reading now with the option to step up to full Jaltest CV diagnostics later. If you need full Jaltest CV or OHW coverage from the start, see the Jaltest CV Kit (29209) instead.
