DAP4CS options dialog allows you to select the diagnostic adapter type and connection type for the ELM327. Most options are self-explanatory, but some described next:
-
Emulate KWP 2000 one byte header (ELM327 only)
ELM327 adapter does not supports KWP 2000 message headers with no address information (one-byte header, A1,A0=00, see clause 4.2 of ISO 14230-2:1999E). Some vehicle manufacturers utilize this variant of KWP 2000 protocol. DAP4CS implements an original method, which allows ELM327 to communicate with Control Unit using this variant of KWP 2000 protocol. However data transfer rate using this method may be low. Do not use ELM327 in this emulation mode for any procedures, other than reading/erasing DTC and for reading current parameters. This option is on by default.
-
Automatic flow control (ELM327, STN)
This option enables FC-frames auto generation by ELM327 (or STN) adapter in response to FirstFrame (ISO15765). When this option is disabled, DAP4CS uses only software generated FC-frames.
-
Use manual CAN lines switch (ELM327, STN)
Select this option if you are using a diagnostic adapter with a manual CAN bus lines switch or an optional connector with a CAN bus lines switch. For example ELM327 with a HS_CAN/MS_CAN manual switch.
-
Pins remapping (for J2534)
Various J1962 connectors produced by different manufacturers may have different schematics. To adapt such connectors to this software, you must use J1962 pin remapping. To do this, you must use existing configurations or create your own. The configuration files are located in the DAP4CS/Remap directory.
-
Enable debug log
This Software is under development, it may contain bugs, which can induce communication errors. Debug logs will help Software developer to fix bugs and improve reliability.
