R.H. Sheppard introduces diagnostic tool
Commercial steering systems manufacturer R.H. Sheppard is launching its first diagnostic software, developed in partnership with Cojali, the company behind Jaltest.
The company said in a news release that the Sheppard Diagnostic Tool (SDT) will provide access to every proprietary protocol for Sheppard Active Steering products.
It will offer step-by-step, interactive on-screen guidance for fault code reading, system calibration, health checks and firmware updates, all aligned to factory specifications. Direct integration of proprietary data ensures every test and adjustment meets original equipment standards, the company added. Embedded help links will connect technicians to support staff for real-time assistance and technical advice.

SDT is available as a standalone program that works with any RP1210-compliant VCI, including Jaltest devices. For shops already using Jaltest Diagnostics, Sheppard has also created an optional add-on module that integrates its OEM protocols directly into the Jaltest platform — giving users access without switching software apps and reducing team’s learning curve.
