Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
So what can be done with this? I'll defo take one
Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
I did not had much time for the next gen device development. other important projects have taken most of my time in the last months. at least I got to build enough OBD1READ device to match the demand for the summer.
So what you can do with OBD1READ + TOYOBD1:
It allows display and recording of sensor data on an android device through a bluetooth connection.
basic use goes as follows. the OBD1READ device is always plugued to the car. you come in with your phone. place the phone on a bracket on the dashboard, start the car, start the TOYOBD1 app which connects automatically to the OBD1READ. then you have additional info from the car ECU , that info is not available otherwise. when you shut it down you close the app and take back your phone.
another intended use is with a permanent tablet install, CARPUTER mode . with that one you simply start the car and the app comes back from sleep and connects to the device. then goes back to sleep when you shut it down. so basically you don`t give much attention to your tablet while you drive.
then the diagnostic man ,there is no special mode for it. you bring both your android device and the obd1read to a troublesome car you probably don`t own. you plug the obd1read to the diag box, then connect with it using the app. you do your diagnostic job with the engine running while you fidle around the engine bay looking at your phone as needed. quite useful when starting an engine swap for the first time and you don`t trust the car`s gauges. proved useful for me to diag bad map sensor, incorrect STA wiring job( twice). in some cases you find problems without even taking readings on the car`s wiring harness with a multimeter. It happened to me to troubleshoot people in other countries using log files they sent me.

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
Brilliant device. I have this setup on my android tablet installed in car permanently on my rev 2 turbo.
A couple of questions:
1. I noticed if i got the app running and turn the engine off and then on again, some of the readings stay at 0. Rebooting the app sorts this.
2. Is there anywhere that describes what each reading is and what it should be?
Thanks

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
The glossary in the app covers what each function is but there is no guide of what readings are normal for each one

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
Is this going ahead?
I contacted Jean-françois before I saw this thread as I wanted one of these asap.
He is currently making the next batch so it is going to be a couple of weeks until they are available.
I mentioned to him about this group buy but he has not got back to me yet.
If this can be organised with a discount I am in, but if this is going to take a while I am happy to go direct and pay full price (seems quite cheap to me anyway!)

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
I have ordered mine direct and is now on it's way. He has just made a batch of 12 22pin versions (one of which is now mine) so probably worth speaking to him about batch size if the group buy is going ahead.
I have taken myself off the list.

Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
Are these unit still for sale anywhere?
Re: Leftovers - Android OBD1 Group Buy
Have you tried contacting Jean-Francois Breton who designed and made them?

You should find contact details in his profile. It's a great bit of kit, and the associated Android app seems to receive regular updates.
