OBDII - Please post working OBDII Hardware Setups

Scott · June 17th, 2007, 10:58 PM

Hello all,

Do you use OBDII Plugin? We are trying to eliminate some last problems from this plugin that some users are experiencing, and we need to take a poll of working / non-working hardware setups. If you use OBDII, please drop a post stating your hardware that you use, and whether the plugin is working for you or not working for you. If you have issues, please include those issues in your post (for example - plugin not working coming out of hibernation). The following info is needed as well with your post:

1) What Motherboard are you using?
2) What OS do you run?
3) What OBDII Device (i.e. Elmscan5, OBDPros, etc...) are you using?
4) Are you using a Native Serial port on your mobo or a USB device using USB-Serial driver?

Thanks for your time...

P.s. This is not a discussion thread, please post only once with your setup and current issues, if any, and let's try to keep the thread to that only...

Make sure "Log Events" is ON in OBDII Settings, run the application and OBDII, turn the application off, and then post your log.txt file in the OBDII Plugin directory (or maybe I think it is in LocalSettings/ApplicationData/Centrafuse/Plugins/OBDII)... With this log file I may probably be able to tell you what is going wrong...

on the ATZ init command does it emit a text string back with the word "ELM" in it? If not, ATZ init will fail.

System works good, but after a couple of hibernations,I dont receive any data.
Connection button is still GREEN.
Even after disconnecting and reconnecting no new data apears.
Only solution is to close and restart CF
