Jaltest Marine Inboard USA Software Activation

The Jaltest Marine Inboard USA Software Activation (,795) activates inboard marine engine diagnostic coverage within the Jaltest Marine platform. This module covers diesel and gasoline inboard engines, sterndrive applications, and direct-drive inboard setups — the powerplants found in express cruisers, sportfishers, lobster boats, commercial workboats, and other applications where the engine is mounted inside the hull rather than hung on the transom. For marine shops with a customer base built around larger vessels with inboard power, this is the module that provides proper ECU-level diagnostic access.

This license requires the Jaltest Marine hardware kit (part 70001023, ,490 MSRP) for use. Software and hardware are purchased separately.

What Jaltest Marine Inboard Covers

• Diesel inboard engines — Volvo Penta diesel, Yanmar diesel marine, and other commercial-grade diesel inboard platforms
• Gasoline inboard and sterndrive engines — Mercury/MerCruiser sterndrive, Volvo Penta gasoline IPS/DPS, and related applications
• Full ECU access — fault codes, live data, actuation tests, and parameter monitoring on inboard engine control systems
• Sterndrive-specific diagnostics — trim system monitoring, outdrive electronics, and drive unit integration with engine ECU

Inboard Cable Kit (70002009, 80 — sold separately)

The Jaltest Inboard Cable Kit is the recommended cable set for this module:

• JDC527A — Volvo Penta 6-pin diagnostics cable
• JDC603A — Mercury 4-pin diagnostics cable
• JDC604.9 — Mercury 10-pin diagnostics cable
• JDC611A — OBD-M / Volvo Penta EGCI 6-pin cable
• JDC612A — Yanmar 3-pin diagnostics cable
• JDC614A9 — Mercury 2-pin diagnostics cable
• JDC617A — DTS Mercury/Mercruiser diagnostics cable
• JDC618A9 — Volvo Penta KAD/KAMD/TAMD A9 diagnostics cable

Who Needs This Module

Marine repair shops whose customer base includes express cruisers, sportfishers, lobster boats, workboats, and other inboard-powered vessels. A shop doing regular MerCruiser sterndrive service and Volvo Penta IPS work will use the Inboard module constantly — fault codes on sterndrive engines, trim system faults, closed cooling system temperature monitoring, and exhaust system monitoring all require ECU access that the Inboard module provides.

Inboard vs. Full Marine: Which Makes Sense

The Inboard module at ,795 is the right choice for shops focused specifically on inboard and sterndrive applications. If your shop also services outboards, PWC, and is starting to add gasoline outboard brands to the mix, the Marine Full activation at ,645 covers everything for 50 more — effectively adding Outboard, Jet Ski, Gasoline Engines, and Boat module coverage.
