Plz add TCP-IP OBD II interface feature solved with post #478

[jamesdio]

Hi sirnoname.

This is Eunbae Park from Korea.

First of all, I'd love to thank you for the great application, X-Sim 3 with new additional features especially OBD II interface.
This is really awesome!

Anyway I'm wondering if it's possible for trasfering OBD-II data over TCP-IP.
If It's possible, Why don't you add the feature to X-sim3?

Honestly I'm an iphone, ipad(i Devices) user. I don't have any android devices.
Apple the manufacturer of Iphone and iPad does not allow users of there device to use bluetooth serial communication,
the worse thing is that they never accept the not-approved devices attached on i Devices via bluetooth.

So I hope to use the TCP-IP OBD-II Interface function on x-sim3.

There are several TCP-IP(WiFi) based OBD-II scan tools for Iphone & ipad such as REV, DeshCommand, fuzzycar, speedport and etc.


Thanks again for the greatest motion software on earth!

Regards, Eunbae Park

I did not find a specification about this wlan tranfere.

I think this url below might help

There is no network description on the page.
The OBDnet API does not look like to do anything in the direction of OBD, no callbacks and no funktions. I think it is some closed source for a device of them.
All I know is they use port 35000.

Thanks sirnoname for the fast answer.

I found another sites associated with Wifi OBD-II.
There is open sample source, Object C for the client side.

Code: Select all

_scanTool      = [FLScanTool scanToolForDeviceType:kScanToolDeviceTypeELM327];
[_scanTool retain];

_scanTool.useLocation   = YES;
_scanTool.delegate   = self;

if(_scanTool.isWifiScanTool ) {
   // These are the settings for the PLX Kiwi WiFI, your Scan Tool may
   // require different.
   [_scanTool setHost:@"192.168.0.10"];
   [_scanTool setPort:35000];
}

[_scanTool startScan];

- (void)scanTool:(FLScanTool*)scanTool didReceiveResponse:(NSArray*)responses {
   [responses retain];   

   FLECUSensor* sensor   =   nil;

   for (FLScanToolResponse* response in responses) {
      sensor         = [FLECUSensor sensorForPID:response.pid];
      [sensor setCurrentResponse:response];

      if (response.pid == 0x0C) {
         // Update RPM Display
         rpmLabel.text   = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ %@", [sensor valueStringForMeasurement1:NO], [sensor imperialUnitString]];
         [rpmLabel setNeedsDisplay];
      }
      else if(response.pid == 0x0D) {
         // Update Speed Display
         speedLabel.text   = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@ %@", [sensor valueStringForMeasurement1:NO], [sensor imperialUnitString]];
         [speedLabel setNeedsDisplay];
      }
   }

   [responses release];
}


I'm not an object C programmer so I have no idea with this source.
Just I assume that you can write source code for server side according to the source I found.

Hope this help.

Better but to much reverse engeneering. It is only a part of the whole and only designed for his code.
It would be better to ask him where he get this informations ...

[sirnoname]

ok, it is working *

Oh Is it working already? OMG!!! unbelievable!

I can't wait to get the newer version of X-sim 3 w/ wlan OBD-II support.
I'm already so excited..

Deeply thank you, sirnoname. What a genius man you are!!

Can you make a video Tut for the Apple device? (Camtasia is a good video software for this)

Can you make a video Tut for the Apple device? (Camtasia is a good video software for this)

The video tutorial means instruction for connecting X-sim with Apple devices?

If the answer is yes, I can make video tutorial for X-sim-to-Apple device.

Anyway How can I download the newer version of X-sim for the new feature, wlan OBD-II?
