We recommend that you do the above software traning steps 1 to 6 as a minimum requirement for this video tutorials.
You can connect your OBD II device with low power bluetooth, power consumpting WLAN, ethernet or a normal serial port like RS232 or RS485.
Try out any OBD2 car diagnostic software out of the market for Apple, Google, Linux or Microsoft OS.

Important hint: the OBD II software or hardware which you like to connect must have support for the common ELM327 OBD II interface (WLAN, BT or serial port edition)! This adapters are well known by most of the avilable software and supported with autodetection. You do not need this hardware interface itself because we simulate OBD II inclusive ELM327. So you only have to connect to this emulator without additional parts.
