Tool comparison
Jaltest CV/MCV is Cojali's multi-brand diagnostic platform for commercial vehicles — trucks, buses, trailers and light commercials — covering a very broad list of manufacturers from a single tool. With the Jaltest interface it reads and clears DTCs, shows live data, performs component activations, parameter settings, calibrations, service resets and forced DPF/SCR regenerations, and handles system configuration across engine, aftertreatment, ABS/EBS, transmission and body electronics. Independent truck and fleet workshops use it as an alternative to multiple OEM dealer tools, backed by Jaltest technical information, wiring diagrams and guided diagnostics for listed vehicles.
CAT ET is the common shorthand for Caterpillar Electronic Technician, Caterpillar's dealer-level diagnostic and programming software for its electronic engines and machines. Using a Cat Communication Adapter, it retrieves active and logged fault and event codes, streams and records live data, executes diagnostic tests and sensor calibrations, sets configurable parameters, and flashes Cat ECMs via WinFlash. It spans Caterpillar on-highway, construction, mining, marine, industrial and generator applications. Technicians treat CAT ET as the essential tool for Caterpillar troubleshooting, ECM reprogramming and equipment configuration wherever OEM-level access to Cat control systems is required.
Jaltest MCV (Truck & Off-Highway Diagnostic, Cojali (Jaltest)) and CAT ET (Truck & Off-Highway Diagnostic, Caterpillar) compete in the same space, so the choice comes down to coverage, workflow and price for your specific ECUs.
