OBDII
Vehicle Sensor Interface (VSI)
Part number 117312
OBDII Input: (VC3000DAQ, VC4000PC or VC4000DAQ version only)
Use your VC3000DAQ, VC4000PC or VC4000DAQ to read real-time sensor data from your OBDII and then upload to your PC. The VC3000DAQ, VC4000PC or VC4000DAQ OBDII Interface option operates on USA-spec OBDII equipped cars. All USA-spec vehicles built since 1996 are OBDII compliant. The vehicle will have an OBDII connector under the dash or in another location near the driver’s seat.
Note: VC4000DAQ comes with a CAN interface cable so it is compatible with all 2008 and newer vehicles, therefore if the vehicles you need to test have CAN protocol and you have a VC4000DAQ then the VSI is not necessary.
Vehicles Applicable:
All domestic and import cars and trucks built since January 1, 1996 have OBDII systems. There are five basic OBDII protocols in use with minor variations on the communication pattern between the OBDII computer and the scanner console or tool. GM cars and light trucks use SAE J1850 Variable Pulse Width Modulation (VPW). Domestic Fords use SAE J1850 Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). Chrysler products and all European and most Asian Imports use ISO 9141 circuitry. Some imports use the KWP2000. The newest protocol is CAN (Controlled Area Network). All 2008 model year vehicles use the CAN protocol. The Vericom VSI is compatible with all five protocols. Includes 27 EPA required data.
Most popular Sensors and Measurements:

When the OBDII RPM is turned on, the VC3000DAQ, VC4000PC or VC4000DAQ and Profile will use
it to calculate torque and gear ratio.
The VSI can be used in combination with other analog sensors or
RPM sensors.

Manufacturers are only required to provide the parameters that prove
their emissions systems. Each vehicle may show a different
subset of the available generic parameters.
| The Vericom VSI may also be used
with software distributed by B&B Electronics, called AutoTap® (www.autotap.com).
With AutoTap software, the hundreds of extended parameters may be
viewed and logged, error codes may be read and check engine lights
may be reset. Download AutoTap software (http://www.autotap.com/downloads.html)
then call B&B Electronics to
get the activation code. The cost will be $289.95 for the
activation code. Please visit their web site for more
