Further details

With the popularity of the Bluetooth wireless technology appearing in PDAs and laptops, and the low cost of PC Bluetooth adapters, AutoEnginuity has released a cable-less solution for OBDII/EOBD diagnostics.

Bluetooth has a range of 33 feet (10 metres) and is easier to use than other wireless technologies. Because Bluetooth is a 'cable replacement' technology, it doesn't require sophisticated network protocols and complex handshaking. This means its installation and operation are much simpler than other wireless technologies.

The Bluetooth transceiver is a small module that attaches to the end of the OBDII connector instead of the normal serial cable. This, combined with the specially built AutoEnginuity Bluetooth-enabled interface, means an end to cables stretching between car and Pocket PC.

The interface can also be used with a serial autosync cable (not supplied) for those times where your computing device is not Bluetooth-enabled.
