START USING YOUR DEVICE

After Bluetooth connection, the diagnostic software will be launched if your vehicle supports it. You can use all functions of the device, e.g. the standard OBDII function and other functions.

OBDII Diagnostic

Vehicle self-check
Read /M readiness, error codes, datastreams and other information with one click Trouble Code & Clear Code
Excellent DTC explanations provide you with accurate and detailed trouble code definitions. Use the Delete Code button to delete all current and saved DTCs from the control module.

Data stream
The View Datastream function allows you to view the PID data of the vehicle’s electronic control unit in real time. Dashboard
Intuitive graphical display with three different styles. To customize your data stream:
“Add page” – “Select the graphic styles you like” – “PID” – “Select the data stream you need”.
Long press on the graphic to drag it to the desired position or delete it

Freeze Frame
The Freeze Frame menu displays freeze frame data, a snapshot of critical vehicle operating conditions automatically recorded by the on-board computer at the time of the DTC record. This is a good function to determine the cause of the fault. 02 Sensors
Regulations from OBD Il require certain vehicles to monitor and test oxygen (02) sensors to isolate fuel and emissions related faults. The 02 Monitor Test function allows you to view the results of the 02 sensor monitoring tests, Velcle information
Vehicle information allows retrieval of the vehicle number VIN, calibration number ID (s) which identifies the software version of the vehicle control module(s), calibration check numbers (CVN(s)), and in-service performance tracking for OBD || compliant vehicles model year 2000 and later. CVNs are calculated values mandated by OBD II. They are reported to verify that emissions-related calibrations have been changed. Multiple CVNs can be reported for a control module. It can take several minutes to calculate the CVN. Performance tracking in operation tracks the performance of the key standby monitors. Performance Test
To check health condition for acceleration, brake, and distance of your vehicle. Trip
To check the health of acceleration, braking and distance of your vehicle.
Exclusive trip analysis with time, distance, start time, travel time, maximum speed, maximum speed RPM, average speed, highest and lowest coolant temperature, number of overspeeds and number of quick braking. You can also record, save, print and share the trips for your own analysis or with your mechanic. I/M Readiness
The I/M Readiness option allows you to view a snapshot of the operations for the exhaust system on OBDI/EOBD vehicles. Note: Regarding the On-Board Monitor Test and Component Test functions, these two functions are subject to the current test. Some vehicles support these two functions and the product software displays these two functions, while other vehicles do not support them and the product software does not display them

Battery Check
Graphically display battery voltage in real time to retrieve and analyze a more acourate battery life trend and monitor health status. Report
You can export diagnostic reports and share them on social media. My Vehicle
You can select or delete the information about your vehicle.Conditions for newly added vehicles:

1. if the VIN code of the newly added vehicle can be read, the vehicle can be added.
2. if the VIN code of the newly added vehicle cannot be read, an input box will appear when the device communicates with the vehicle, and you need to add the newly added vehicle information manually.
3. if the user has only one vehicle and wants to add multiple vehicles: app is not allowed.

FAQs

1. why is there a vehicle linking error?

/A communication error occurs when the scan tool cannot communicate with the vehicle's ECU (Electronic Control Unit). Make sure the ignition is on ON. Make sure the scan tool connector is firmly connected to the vehicle's DLC. Tun the ignition off, wait about 10 seconds, and tun the ignition back on. Then proceed with the test. Make sure that the control module is not defective.

2. Why can not the scan tool be turned on?

If the scan tool cannot be switched on or otherwise works incorrectly. Check that the scan tool connector is firmly connected to the vehicle's DLC. Check if the DLC pins are bent or broken. Clean the DLC pins if necessary. Check the vehicle battery to make sure it still has at least 8.0 vols.

3. Why is there an operating error?

In rare cases, the scanner may suddenly crash. If the scan tool freezes, an exception occurs, or the ECU vehicle responds too slowly to requests. First reset the scan tool, then tur off the ignition and wait for 10 seconds. Tumn the ignition back on and continue the test.

4. Why can not | connect the BD310 code reader?

For /S users: do not connect the Bluetooth device in the phone’s system settings, o it will not be able to connect to the app. For Android users: Tum on Bluetooth and the location switch on the phone.

5. what do i need to pay attention to?

a. The BD310 code reader works on 12-volt vehicles and some light trucks. It is not suitable for 24-volt trucks. b. The update software only supports Windows 7/8/10. c. Windows XP and Apple computers do not support upgrades.
