The two-dimensional barcode is generated by the same electronic engine control unit, which sends it to the MFG multi-function display present on all Suzuki outboard engines, from DF9.9B to DF350A. The Suzuki Diagnostic System Mobile is based on a free application (available for iOS and Android devices), allowing the user to acquire all information about the engine by simply framing and storing a QR (Quick Response) code. Suzuki have always been working to simplify life for their customers, and therefore the difficulty of getting the data has been solved with an ingenious yet simple and cutting-edge solution: the creation of a “ diagnostic application“. Unfortunately, even in this case, the engine had to be brought to the workshop to get diagnostic data, or the technician had to reach the boat, even for simple monitoring, that is to download the data from the engine control unit. It became possible to obtain complete and accurate information from ECUs. More recently, thanks to the advent of electronics, digital instruments took over and became a more reliable and efficient monitoring system, raising standards in terms of information, accuracy and reliability.

Then came the first analog instruments, including lights and alarms, but all with a fairly empirical precision, not enough to offer a diagnostic service. In the past, the relationship among outboard motor, owner and service point was linked to the perception and interpretation of engine “signals”: noise, smoke or the presence of cooling water jet.
