iOS Software
The iPhone, iPad , and iPod continue to be very popular ways of interfacing to our ELM327 OBD-II scanning tools. We have tested the following Apps and would like to tell you more about them.
DashCommand Engine Link EOBD Facile

DashCommand™ is loaded with features, including a skid pad, race track, virtual dashboards (using our patent-pending DashXL™ technology), inclinometer, and OBD-II data logging & diagnostics (find out why your check-engine light is on). Using WiFi technology and a supported hardware interface, you will be able to connect your iPhone to your OBD-II compliant vehicle and monitor, log, and playback vehicle information and parameters (skid pad, race track, and inclinometer features are fully functional even without an OBD-II connection).
DashCommand™ supports all OBD-II and EOBD compliant vehicles
Supports all OBD-II protocols: SAE-J1850 (PWM and VPW), ISO-9141, ISO-14230 (KWP2000), and ISO-15765 (CAN).
DashCommand™ Features
Virtual Dashboards
High quality dashboards utilizing our patent-pending DashXL™ technology. DashCommand™ comes with pre-loaded dashboard skins for both portrait and landscape modes. The DashXL™ skin sets include multiple dashboards with buttons to navigate between them. Each dashboard features a different gauge layout, so you can choose the right one for you.
These dashboards are built using our DashXL™ editor (accessible from the Tools menu of any of our freely downloadable Windows software applications). Using the DashXL™ editor, you can design custom dashboard layouts, so you can make them look just the way you want (and even share them with your friends)!
Skid Pad
Professional skidpad showing real-time lateral, acceleration, and braking G forces. Clearly marked G-force circle visually plots the G forces and keeps a record that you can instantly understand. It also features indicators showing your maximum left, right, acceleration, and braking G forces.
Race Track
Visually maps out your path as you drive around the race track. Displays your current location and whether you are accelerating or braking in clear and easy to see colors. Visually analyze different race track laps to see how acceleration and braking changed from lap to lap.
Inclinometer
Do you like to go off-roading or rock crawling? The inclinometer functions as both a tilt meter and a slope meter. Give yourself a little more confidence when off road, showing the roll and pitch attitude of your vehicle. Handy in terrain where the horizon is not horizontal or when wheeling at night and you can't get a good visual reference. Easily toggle between two different modes of display.
