WIFI OBDii AUTO CHECKER is able to detect and interpret these protocols automatically. It also provides support
for high speed communications and a low power sleep mode. It use AT commands to communicate with a host device
(PC, notebook, iPhone, iPod touch, iPad and so on). There are plenty of software packages available, which are fully
compatible with WI-FI OBD AUTO CHECKER. Some of them have pretty useful features, such as engine running
parameters monitoring, DTC reading and clearing, MPG meter, etc. You can even write your own software on a
specified hardware platform if you wish, because the AT commands are fully documented and very well explained.
WI-FI OBD AUTO CHECKER is measuring only 2.7 x 1.25x 0.9 inches, and it comes attached with a 6 ft OBDII cable
for easy installation. It also comes included with a power switch built-in to prevent the need for having to constantly
disconnect your unit from the OBDII port. It is compatible with 1996 and later vehicles. Connecting to your
iPhone / iPod touch /iPad is made by WIFI connection in adHoc mode.
