The Porsche System Tester II 9588 is a modular, portable diagnostic and measuring system. It can be used in any location to perform diagnostic tests on electronic control units. It consists of a computer unit, a main memory, a hard disk, a VGA display panel, a rechargeable nickel metal hydride battery and a measuring unit for measurement of current, voltage and resistance values.

The Porsche System Tester 2 can be operated with the built-in keys or using a connectable country-specific PS/2 keyboard (option).

Data and measured values can be printed out on DIN A4 printers currently approved by Porsche.

The integrated LCD panel is used as the display. A monitor can also be connected (VGA connection).
