MONITOR ALL VITALS

Six tools. One device. Plug & play.

Whether you're an owner-operator watching oil pressure and trans temp on a long haul, a fleet manager keeping on top of fuel costs, or running machinery on site — the ScanGauge HD puts the readings your factory dash doesn't show right in front of you, on a clear colour touchscreen.

ScanGauge HD all-in-one heavy diesel monitor with live gauges, trip computers and fault code reader

15+ Live Engine Gauges

Display up to 9 simultaneously — coolant temp, oil pressure, RPM, boost, fuel economy, battery voltage and more. Fully customisable layout.

X-Gauge™ Programmable Gauges

Go beyond the standard gauges — add transmission temp, EGT, DPF soot load and other vehicle-specific parameters tailored to your truck.

5 Trip Computers

Track fuel cost, distance, average speed, litres used and range-to-empty across five independent logs. Data retained even when unplugged.

Heavy Diesel Fault Code Reader

See active fault codes the moment a warning light comes on — on the highway, on site or in the paddock. Know whether it's safe to keep going before you call for help.

Alerts & Alarms

Set custom high and low alerts on any gauge — coolant temp, oil pressure, boost and more. Get warned before a small issue becomes a big repair bill.

Real-Time Fuel Economy

Instant L/100km, average economy, cost per kilometre, litres per hour and trip fuel cost. See exactly where your fuel money goes.

LIVE ENGINE GAUGES

Monitor engine vitals and every reading your truck can share

More than 15 built-in digital gauges — select up to 9 live gauges to display simultaneously. All data is pulled live from your vehicle's ECU as you drive. Switch between metric and imperial — km, litres, Celsius and kPa all supported.

Code Gauge Code Gauge
LHK / KPL Litres per 100km / Km per Litre CWT Coolant Temperature
AVG Average Fuel Economy OIL Oil Pressure
LPH Litres Per Hour TFT Transmission Fluid Temperature
TFC Trip Fuel Cost BST Boost
CPM Cost Per Kilometre RPM Engine RPM
KPH Speed (km/h) LOD Engine Load
VLT Battery Voltage TPS Throttle Position
FIA / CIA Intake Air Temperature HP Horsepower

* Available parameters vary by vehicle make and model. If a parameter is not supported by your vehicle's ECU, no data will be shown for that gauge.


X-GAUGE™ SYSTEM

Go beyond standard gauges — monitor what really matters for your rig

Hauling heavy? Running machinery hard on site? The standard gauges don't tell the full story. X-Gauge is ScanGauge's exclusive programmable gauge system — tap into manufacturer-specific data channels and display them alongside your standard gauges.

The ScanGauge HD can automatically scan your vehicle for available X-Gauges and display them alongside your standard gauges — no manual code entry needed.

ScanGauge HD trip computers tracking fuel, distance and cost for heavy diesel trucks

TRIP COMPUTERS

Five trip computers — always logging, always ready

With five built-in trip computers, the ScanGauge keeps track of everything from fuel cost to distance travelled and everything in between. Data is stored on the ScanGauge and retained even when the power is disconnected. Each trip computer starts automatically and the information is available any time during the trip.

Time & Distance (×3 logs)
  • Current Trip, Today and Previous Day
  • Kilometres driven & hours driven
  • Fuel used and trip fuel cost
  • Average and max speed
  • Max RPM and max coolant temp
  • Fuel economy (L/100km)
Tank Computers (×2 logs)
  • Current Tank and Tank to Empty
  • Fuel used on current tank
  • Distance to empty
  • Hours to empty
  • Average economy for current tank
  • Total fuel cost for current tank

HD DIAGNOSTIC SCAN TOOL

Know what your engine is telling you — when it matters most

The ScanGauge HD checks for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) and, if any are found, shows how many there are and the codes themselves.

Data captured when the code was set can be recalled to help troubleshoot the problem (was the engine hot or cold, speed high or low, etc.). Once the issue is fixed, the ScanGauge HD can clear the codes and turn off the warning light.

INSTALLATION

Up and running in under five minutes — no tools required

Plugs directly into your truck's J1939 or J1708 diagnostic port and powers itself from it. No wiring, no calibration, no tools required.

COMPATIBILITY

Will ScanGauge work on my truck?

ScanGauge heavy diesel models work with most trucks, buses, agricultural and earthmoving equipment from 1990 onwards that use the J1939 or J1708 diagnostic protocols.

Check your diagnostic port

Look under the dash for a round diagnostic connector:

  • 9-pin round port — J1939 (most trucks from the late 2000s onwards)
  • 6-pin round port — J1708 (mainly older trucks)

Both are supported.

J1939 9-pin and J1708 6-pin round diagnostic ports on heavy diesel trucks
Truck has a 16-pin port instead? Many medium trucks such as Isuzu and Hino use a 16-pin port — these work with the ScanGauge 3 and our 24V OBD extension cable. Some other trucks use a 16-pin connector for J1939 and need our 9-pin to 16-pin adapter instead. Not sure which you have? Contact us and we'll confirm before you buy.
✔ Works with
  • Heavy diesel trucks and prime movers
  • Buses and coaches
  • Agricultural machinery
  • Mining and earthmoving equipment
  • Diesel motorhomes using J1939/J1708
Common brands
  • Kenworth, Freightliner, Mack
  • Volvo, International, Navistar
  • Mercedes-Benz, Paccar
  • Cummins and Caterpillar engines

Driving a car, 4WD, ute or light commercial with a standard 16-pin OBD2 port? You'll need the ScanGauge 3 or ScanGauge 2 instead.
