Announcing OBDLink S: small form factor OBD-II to RS232 interface

Posted 03 May 2010

We've just launched OBDLink S, the smallest OBD to RS-232 interface available on the market today. Despite its small size, OBDLink S packs a punch: it is guaranteed to work with all OBD-II compliant vehicles, offers up to 100% faster sampling rates than other OBD interfaces, features PowerSave functionality, comes with free lifetime firmware updates and free OBDwiz software.

It was specifically designed for the fleet management, emissions testing, and CarPC markets. Each unit is programmed with a unique serial number, and for large orders, can be programmed with a custom manufacturer string.

OBDLink S is fully compatible with the ELM327 command set, and can be used as a direct plug-and-play replacement for the ElmScan 5. OBDLink S has many new features and enhancements, visit the product page to learn more about it.

And of course, OBDLink S is subject to our generous 90-day return policy, as well as the unmatched 3-year warranty.

Announcing ECUsim 5100 OBD Simulator

Posted 24 Feb 2010

We are happy to announce our latest generation OBD simulator, the ECUsim 5100.

This simulator is radically different from its predecessors. It supports all OBD-II protocols in a single PIM:

  • SAE J1850 PWM
  • SAE J1850 VPW
  • ISO 9141-2
  • ISO 14230-4
  • ISO 15765-4

Up to three PIMs can be installed, enabling the engineer to quickly switch between three preselected protocols.

The active protocol can be set by the user in software. Each PIM supports three virtual ECUs: ECM, TCM, and ABS.

OBD traffic monitoring is now supported for all protocols, and the unit supports several configuration commands.

Keeping the ECUsim 5100 up to date is easy via downloadable firmware upgrades.

Visit the product page to download the ECUsim 5100 User Guide, and to order the simulator.

Surprisingly, there is relatively little information available on OBD and its applications, considering that it has been around since 1994, and today is present in the vast majority of vehicles. We'll try to help fill the void, by using the blog to share the things that we find interesting and exciting about OBD-II.

We look forward to your comments.
