Re: OBD Socket (and details of MGF technical day - June 15th

I tried this out on the Raspberry Pi this morning. It seems to work perfectly.

Re: OBD Socket (and details of MGF technical day - June 15th

If it is an Android tablet you can run an X server on it and export the diagnostic program from a carputer (possibly a Pi) running Linux onto the Tablet screen using the X protocol. You need a network connection between the two but a wifi dongle in the Pi could do that.

Re: OBD Socket (and details of MGF technical day - June 15th

Couple of thoughts - does Phillip want to borrow an ECU from a 1.1 Rover 100? Yes I would like to borrow the Rover 100 ECU. I think that it will be MEMS1.6 SPI which I haven't done yet. would it be possible to either have a bluetooth output or have a bluetooth adaptor? It would be easier for me to ...

Re: OBD Socket (and details of MGF technical day - June 15th

My plan is to spend the morning at Barnet, and then at lunchtime move on to another Rover club at Halfway House in Essex, unless anyone objects?

Re: OBD Socket (and details of MGF technical day - June 15th

What is the planned cost when in production please? Have never had nor used any reader but with four Rover or MG cars now it seems plausible that one may be very useful in the future. I think £150. If you want one cheaper then buy one now. Date: Sunday June 15th, location Friern Barnet Retail park ...

Re: Technical and social day - testing out new diagnostic ki

I'm afraid that the 15th is about the only weekend that I can do this. Maybe we could meet privately in Hatfield one day?

Re: OBD Socket

Looks really good so far! Any rough ideas on dates we will be able to buy? I really don't like the answer I'm going to give, but I think it's the truth. a few days to set up the company with Companies House, which is a prerequisite for a week or two to get through Kickstarters security checks a mon...

Re: OBD Socket

His Mini also has RC5 EC5 airbag which works intermittently. This is the same protocol as Robs MGF but strangely it is rock solid on the MGF but not so good on the Mini. I'm sure I will get to the bottom of it, I'm just struggling to get access to his Mini to try things out. Today I fixed this. It ...

I have had no access to an LE500 and have done no testing on one. If you live anywhere near me (West London) I would love to give it a go.

Re: OBD Socket

My new interface arrived today and after 5 hrs coding it seems to be working :) :) :)

So far I tested it with a MEMS1.9 and an EDC15M so I think I will save my code and go to bed.
