The OT-2 (Open Tune) by Innovate Motorsports is an all-in-one, ultraportable solution that turns your iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad or PC into a powerful wireless OBD-II enabled automotive diagnostic tool. Powered by the free, downloadable LogWorks Mobile app available at the Apple App Store, the OT-2 unit wirelessly provides a variety of valuable automotive functionality and information via its OBD-II connection to your vehicle, including a dyno digital dashboard, an efficiency meter, a data logger and an OBD-II scan tool. PC functionality utilizes CD software included and your computer's wireless connectivity or a USB connection. Finally, an automotive scan device that truly allows you to take advantage of popular consumer wireless technology. The OT-2 is an OBD-II Wi-Fi/USB Interface for Smartphones and handheld devices with access to the LogWorks Mobile app, as well as PCs. Connecting to your vehicle's onboard computer network via its OBD-II (On Board Diagnostic) port, located under the dashboard and standard on virtually every car and light truck manufactured in the US since 1996, the OT-2's built-in 16-pin OBD-II connector is capable of reading up to 16 channels of diagnostic information generated by your vehicle�s onboard computer network and integrate it into an Innovate Modular Tuning System (MTS) "Log Chain." The OT-2 then makes this information available to you via your iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad or PC as a hotspot (also via USB connection in the case of the PC). The free LogWorks software channels this information into several different diagnostic datapoints. These include a dyno digital dashboard, a programmable system of performance oriented gauges; a fuel efficiency meter, allowing you to track your driving habits and see them in real-time; a data logger which allows you to track, record and even e-mail yourself different pieces of data for viewing offline; and an OBD-II scan tool which gives you the ability to read and erase diagnostic trouble codes and their definitions. Additional features include compatibility with all Innovate Motorsports MTS (Modular Tuning System) devices, the ability to update the OT-2's firmware via a USB connection to the Internet and access to select LogWorks Mobile software functionality without an OT-2 connection. What is OBD-II Beginning in the 1980s new cars and trucks began to be wired with a variety of computerized diagnostic systems designed to improve efficiencies, simplify troubleshooting and minimize the need for repairs. These systems produce indicators known as diagnostic trouble codes (DTC) internally, usually indicating something out of the ordinary by illuminating the "check engine"/malfunction indicator light (MIL) on the dashboard of your car. In the 1990s these systems, codes and the hardware connectors used to access them were standardized in North America as OBD (Onboard Diagnostics) and later OBD-II. Automotive technicians have long utilized specialized high-end machinery to read these codes, passing the costs on to consumers, but now you can get access to the same diagnostic codes and additional information quickly and inexpensively right on your iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad and PC with Innovate Motorsports' OT-2.
