For someone that doesn't know what the OBDII emission diagnostics mode $01 PIDs mean, looking at the ECU 17 PIDs in the OBDwiz Raw Data screen's log will reveal them.
#OBDWIZ FORUM SOFTWARE#
This is also where I could see that the OBDWiz software uses ATE0 and ATL0 (instead of the ATE1 and ATL1 which my Volvo 850 OBDII Portal presumes when using Hyperterminal or Realterm). OBDwiz has got a very useful Raw Data screen which is where I first discovered that the terminal connection (from OBDLink SX to PC) was at 115210 instead of the expected 38400 baud. But the things I wanted to focus on are.ģb. There's capabilities to fiddle with what PIDs are being polled/displayed. OBDwiz has got a dashboard display with big analog style dials, and it's also got a nice live data display that shows averages, etc. So far I like it better than the free EasyObdII software that I was previously using.ģa. OBDwiz worked fine the first time it was run. But if you have a connecting cable between your scan tool and the car's OBDII port, you can easily see the ELM327 clone lights, and in that case, the ELM327 clone's 5 lights are actually superior to the OBDLink SX's 1 single light, since more info is conveyed with the 5 lights.ģ. The single red / yellow / green light on the OBDLink SX is visible when plugging in directly to the Volvo's OBDII port, where with my ELM327 clone - it's not that way on all ELM327 clones - the 5 lights face the dash and are not visible. The OBDII connector end of the OBDLink SX had to be pressed very firmly onto the OBDII port in order for the initial yellow light to turn green. They are the same as those that can be downloaded from:Ģ. The instructions were included on a piece of paper in my box.
#OBDWIZ FORUM DRIVERS#
I followed the OBDLink SX Quick Start instructions on a PC which had no FTDI drivers installed already. The drawback to volvo850diag is that it does not immediately interpret the data, but interpretation is provided externally via. At present, **if** you want to use an ELM327 style device, then volvo850diag is the easiest way to access COMBI, ABS, SRS, AW 50-42 (for non-emission diagnostics), and Power Seats, along with other KWPD3B0 ECUs which are available in '96-'97 850s, '98-'99 S70/V70, etc, since volvo850diag semi-automates the communication somewhat similar to what Vol-FCR Demo or Brick-Diag Free does.
#OBDWIZ FORUM DOWNLOAD#
OBDLink SX can be used with v0.5 (or later) volvo850diag distributions - as long as they contain the edits mentioned in item 6 below - and/or it can be used with the latest Realterm download or with Hyperterminal. OBDLink SX works as expected - manually with Hyperterminal or standalone Realterm - to read/clear the '97 Volvo 850 OBDII emission diagnostics DTCs and the '97 Volvo 850 keyword D3 B0 protocol (KWPD3B0) ECUs DTCs, very similar to how my ELM327 clone operated. The OBDLink SX scanner works well with the supplied free OBDwiz software to access the OBDII emission diagnostic data. I've tested my newly acquired, but previously used OBDLink SX.
