Unfortunately, Konnwei advertise there is PC software to connect the KW600 to your PC but after repeated requests to provide a link to where it can be downloaded they have ignored those requests. The same applies to the BTlink software that is supposed to allow the KW 600 to be updated online. Anyone considering buying Konnwei might want to bear this in mind.
I suggest you look at - th-cam.com/video/mtbu0-GXG_E/w-d-xo.html This shows the update process. Also note my comments there about analysing the waveform as it can be done with the software . Unfortunately, that is not down to Konnwei who don't seem to know their own products. Also, to be fair their customer services did come back to me but the response didn't make a lot of sense and I had to figure some stuff on my own but the above mentioned website helped me. If you have a KW 600 watch the video as it is well worth it. All this stuff should be done by Konnwei not leaving it to customers to try to figure it all out on their own.
Low means that your battery is not outputting enough amps when compared to what value you had input as the spec for that battery. You can have a fully charged battery that gets old and even fully charged outputs a lot less amps and doesnt have enough power to turn the engine over on starting. By the book, you should replace the battery. But, before doing that I would try a mains trickle charge of the battery and see if that helps. Not a slow or fast charger, you want a trickle charger ideally one that is also described as battery reconditioner. These units dont cost that much you leave them on charge for a couple of days. retest the battery after that. If the cranking is still low it means the battery is towards end of life. If you have an overrated battery for your car you may still be fine for a while, but if it is stock cca for your car, especially if a start/stop model, you will want to replace it asap.
Yes, you can do a quick test to get battery miliohms. This is the most valuable parameter. Then compare measured miliohms with the specs of similar type/size battery. Then you can try to measure the cranking amps CCA, but not sure if u can do that without any battery info.

Easy instructions ..Thank you
If the Cranking comes back as "Low" what exactly does this mean? What would be my next step? Is this related to the Starter? Thank you.

@@Ironbuket awesome! Thanks so much!
Can you test a battery if the battery rating label is missing?

@@przemyslawsalata9347 thank you
he is lying
Вася Пупкин что он не так сделал в последнем тесте? Проверял на работающем двигателе?
The 1st test (quick test) stated Replace the battery
The 2nd test with the engine on and the same battery passed
@@jaimaUK I think the car needs to be off for the battery check.
Jaima The quick test was 100% and the second test was 34%
@@samis3173 With the engine running, it is pointless to measure the battery. :)
