Setting:
Measure Units:
· The Temperature can be used as Fahrenheit or Celsius.
· The Speed can be used as MPH (Miles Per Hour) or KPH (Kilometer Per Hour).
· The Pressure can be used as PSI or inHg or kPa.
Port/Device:
You can manually select the correct Protocol Interface from the list along with the correct Port location or you can have the Auto Detect search it for you. Auto Detection will detect Ports 1 - 4 only.
You also have the option to change the Delay manually. It is recommended to set it at Auto. You may experience disconnection if the setting is too low and more likely to ISO 9141.
JEFF INTERFACE will not be detected from Auto Detect. You must select it manually.
Screen Display:
OBD Scan Tech is best viewed with 1024 X 768 High Color. Anything below will not be viewed properly. OBD Scan Tech will search for available Display Settings and display it.
Log/Alerts:
You have the option to turn off the Display Warning Notification and Code Alert Warning. If the Display Setting is not within the specs OBD Scan Tech will warn every time the application is started. Choose NO if you don’t want to see the Display Warning Notification.
You have the option to allow the Vehicle Information to stay the same without erasing on every connecting attempt. OBD Scan Tech will erase the Vehicle Information for every time you connect, unless you choose YES option to save the information.
Sequence:
You have the option to connect to specific protocol with the following 2 Interfaces. This will reduce connecting time.
If you are connecting with JEFF Interface then you have these options.
· Connect To ISO - 9141, Then KEYWORD PROTOCOL 2000 (THIS IS DEFAULT)
· Connect To ISO - 9141 ONLY
· Connect To KEYWORD PROTOCOL 2000 ONLY
If you are connecting with BR3 Interface then you have these options.
· Connect To VPW, Then PWM, Then ISO - 9141, Finally KEYWORD PROTOCOL 2000 (THIS IS DEFAULT)
· Connect To VPW ONLY
· Connect To PWM ONLY
· Connect To KEYWORD PROTOCOL ONLY
OBDSCAN Interface will self connect, it’s all done in the hardware.
If having difficulties connecting thru then you might try Enable the Connect with 2nd Frame. This selection will RESET to Disable if the application has been restarted. If Enabled then OBDSCAN PROTOCOL CONVERTER will send the Change ECU Command. BR3 PROTOCOL CONVERTER will attempt to process the second incoming frame received by the ECU. JEFF PROTOCOL CONVERTER will attempt to process the second incoming frame received by the ECU. Some Vehicles may have multiple ECU respond to PID Request. This does not seem an efficient way to read multiple ECU response so future version should make some modification to read all available ECU response and view them properly by ECU address.
If you having problems connecting thru, then OBD Scan Tech has a Connecting Log which is useful to see what the program is attempting to do. This option can be disabled under Settings.
