CAN-OBDII light

Post by simonsez »

Hello,

The light on my RC track does not lid up unless its connected to the USB cable.

I am assuming that if I power up the brown wire and ground the white\orange from the ethernet cable it should lid up?

Just got my device recently and want to make sure I am on the right way.

Thanks,

Hi,

If you plug it into regular OBDII using the OBDII cable, does it then power up?

Well...
The pin out from the cable I had was from RJ45 T-568B but the pin out posted our the website is for a RJ45 T-568 A.

Now I have it working so I can continue. I am sure I will have more questions coming soon ;)

Ok, now... How do I get the live data from my home computer?
What is the correct chapter for this?

Thanks,

We have a section of the forum for telemetry if you have any specific questions.

I am using the preset channels from the AIM MXS data acquisition system and other than the battery voltage that is off by about 0.5volts no other channels are working in my dashbord.
Is there an online (phone number) support we can contact for more detailed questions?
Thanks,
