OBD 2007
OBD 2007 is a family of OBD II software applications from GLM Software designed
to assist automotive professionals and enthusiasts alike in diagnosing and analysing
problems with modern vehicle engines.
Presently there are two versions of OBD 2007, one for PCs and another for Pocket
PCs. In the coming months we will also be releasing a Smartphone version.
How it works
One end of the scan tool connects to your vehicle’s 16 pin OBD connector plug via
a special OBD cable while the other end connects to your computer’s serial port
via a standard serial cable. All units are sold with the appropriate cabling. Some
units such as the Bluetooth Car-Pal unit or the ElmScan5 BT unit don’t require any
cabling between the scan tool and the computer because they connect directly to
the vehicle’s OBD plug and wirelessly to your computer via Bluetooth. Even the cabled
units can be converted to connect wirelessly via Bluetooth with additional Serial
BT adapters. Most new laptops no longer have a serial port, but they can be connected
by a USB to RS232 converter cable to a USB port.
Supported scan tools
OBD 2007 has been developed and tested with each of the following scan tools, but
should also work with any scan tool based on the ELM 327 chip or any scan tool that
emulates the Elm 327 chip.
OBD 2007 has been designed to comply with the international standards ISO 15031-5
and SAE International J1979 “Communication between vehicle and external equipment
for emission related diagnostics”. These standards are applied to every passenger
and light truck vehicle manufactured since 1996 in the USA and 2001 in Europe and
Japan. OBD 2007 complies with the above standards by supporting all services $01
through $09 of the standards. Please note that not all OBD II compliant vehicles
support each service. OBD 2007 will report which services the vehicle doesn’t support.
