mode defines the type of DTCs to be read. The values are application
specific. The usual values are:

error in is a cluster that describes error conditions occurring before the VI
executes. If an error has already occurred, the VI returns the value of the
error in cluster to error out.

status is TRUE if an error occurred. This VI is not executed when
status is TRUE.

code is the error code number identifying an error. A value of 0
means success. A negative value means error: the VI did not
execute the intended operation. A positive value means warning:
the VI executed intended operation, but an informational warning
is returned. For a description of the code, wire the error cluster to
a LabVIEW error-handling VI, such as the Simple Error
Handler
.

source identifies the VI where the error occurred.

Output

diag ref out is a copy of diag ref in. You can wire it to subsequent
diagnostic VIs.

DTCs returns the resulting DTCs as an array of clusters:

DTC is the resulting Diagnostic Trouble Code. For the default
2-byte DTCs, you can use

DTC to String.vi

to convert this to

readable format as defined by SAE J2012.
