What is ISO ISO 20730-1:2021?
ISO 20730-1:2021 is an international standard that provides guidelines for the exchange of diagnostic data between vehicles and external devices or systems. Specifically, it deals with the road vehicles sector and focuses on the exchange of vehicle repair and maintenance information (RMI).
This document defines
All requirements describing the vehicle-communication functionality via the diagnostic link connector related to ePTI, for example:
- Discovery of the ePTI data link
- Discovery of the ePTI-relevant systems
- Query of ePTI-relevant systems’ information, including software identification, software integrity, current and/or stored values
- Query of ePTI-relevant systems’ error information
- Activation of ePTI-relevant systems’ actuators or routines
Key Aspects of ISO 20730-1:2021
- Scope: The standard specifies the data structures and communication protocols necessary for exchanging diagnostic, repair, and maintenance information between vehicles and external systems, such as diagnostic tools or service centers.
