The Master Diagnostics (MD) suite works on all electronic International diesel engines except the Maxxforce line that was introduced in 2007, the break down for each follows...
1994-1997 - MD32 3 box - Early models had 3 different modules to run the engine. ECM, VPM, IDM.
1998 - 2001/2003 - These engines were run by a single module, an integrated ECM, IDM, and VPM. In 2002, International introduced a new V8 diesel, the VT365/6.0L and it used the next generation of electronic engine controls. The DT 466E and 530E did not switch to the new system until 2004, at which point the 530 was replaced by the 570.
2002/2004 -2007 MD32 DLCII - International took a backstep and went back to separate modules, but only 2 this time, ECM and IDM. The old single box ecms were at 96-98% capacity when released and simply could not handle the extra functions needed for the EGR emissions control, so this system was introduced.
First Gen MaxxForce Software was actually Service Assistant or "Saint". It was developed by SUSE, who also produced the IC4 interface devices. Saint can communicate with any International engine from '94 through the MaxxForce line. I don't think it can talk to the 11 or 13 liter MaxxForce though, I never tried it. I prefer this version over others, but Navistar and SUSE had a disagreement, and now it's no longer supported.
ServiceMaxx is the newest engine diag suite. It's laid out very similar to Diamond Logic Builder. I pretty much refuse to use it on anything except an 11 or 13 liter engine.
