Pro-Cut Discus II
Automotive Brake Reference Guide
The Need?
Simplify massive amounts of data
Pro-Cut makes the best on-car brake lathes in the world. They came to Green Mountain Software to develop a quick and easy reference guide to assist automotive technicians in performing brake service when using their products.
The challenge?
Simplify. Simplify. Simplify.
Simplify finding the key wheel, brake, lathe, torque and tire information about the make and model currently on the lift.
Large menus and buttons make it easy to navigate with finger taps.
The Goals?
Eliminate paper, save time.
- Build a user interface that auto mechanics can use with minimal training
- Set it up to be shop friendly— allow finger-tap navigation
- And … find a graceful way to handle vast number of car makes and models without confusion and clutter
- Consolidate information from multiple reference books and charts into a single accurate, up-to-date source
- Reduce errors due to use of out-of-date manuals or charts
Reference data is presented clearly without cluttering the screen.
The Solution?
A Palm OS application distributed on a memory card. When updates to the databases or application code are released, a memory card is inserted into the Palm device. An automatic installer updates the user’s machine and manages licensing security.
Clear graphics assist technicians to visually identify the correct adapters.
