Thread: OBDMPG - MPG OBDII Plugin for RR 6-12-09

As to a VB.NET version, significant changes will need to happen to the control class to work with .NET com port components versus the old school mscomm used in VB6.

In fact, in VB.NET the plugin is very light

Glad to hear it. If you do update this to .NET and the latest RR standards, please share with the community either in this thread or start your own. I'd love to see this project continue on I just haven't had the time in recent years.

I don't have an OBD interface ,so i don't know if my .NET version run well !

Try please this .NET version and if it's OK i shall create a new thread !

I have a program I used to use for debugging that emulates an ELM OBD interface. You can use it in combination with a virtual com port program (like com0com) to test without actually having an OBD interface. I've attached the emulator to this post if you want to give it a try.

Hi all,

Has anyone had this issue when coming out of hibernation? It is a windows dialogue box that occasionally appears when Windows 7 resumes from hibernation.

"Run-time error '8018':
Operation valid only when the port is open

I have tried searching through this thread, but no luck.

Cheers,
James

I've seen that a few times before. Relaunching RR gets the plugin working again.

Ok,
I have worked on my .NET version and now i have a plugin that run well. The framework 3.5 is needed !
I don't have an OBD interface, so i use this very cool simulator OBDSim.
This thread explain how to use it !
