Talking Free Obd-ii Software

Hi, i know there are some obd-ii software that are freeware, but i dont know one that is "good looking" i mean, i have 2 free programs but they dislpay almost everything in graphs, and one gauge for rpm, and the gauge doesn't look too good..

so i started this thread so that those of you who know of some good free obd-ii software can post here the link and some aditional information, you can include a screenshot if you want...

hi!

what about obd-diag? :-)

www.obd-diag.de (scroll down, download -> OBD-DIAG - Software english Version 1.0)

freeware,full skinable...(default skin from me)

works with all obd-diag adapters, the software is a project from the german carpc community.

Depends on your interface and your car. Its not going to look real time in any even. All data you pull takes 1 amount of time. Lets say it refreshs 1000millliseconds. That means 1000 milli's for mph, 1000 millis for rpms etc etc.

annother thing, is there a way to make it full screen? because when i finish my carputer, its very probable i'll be using frodoplayer with a resolution of 800x600 or maybe even less! so is there a way to make it adapt to the screen resolution?

thank you

It does full screen and looks very nice on a 7 inch screen. Text is big and readable and buttons are touch-friendly. I wasn't able to connect using this obd cable however. My protocol is ISO but according to the site, it looks like it only works with ELM and AGV (whatever that is) based connectors. Too bad - it was just what I was looking for in a OBD program.
