Diacom is software that runs on a PC and acts like a scan tool.  It
listens to the ALDL data stream on GM cars (and some other makes also)
and displays it on the screen.  Since it's on a PC, it can log a lot
more information and has much better displays than a dedicated scan
tool, but it requires having a PC in the car and costs more than some of
the newer cheaper scan tools.
