ELM329 Datasheet, PDF (1/76 Pages) ELM Electronics – CAN Interpreter

ELM329
CAN Interpreter
Description
Since 1996, most vehicles have been required
to monitor their own emissions performance and to
report on it through an On-Board Diagnostics (OBD)
port. Initially, several different protocols were used
for the transfer of OBD data, but since the 2008
model year (in North America), only one protocol has
been allowed - the ISO 15765-4 CAN standard.
The ELM329 is a device that can translate the
data from an ISO 15765-4 interface into a form that
may be readily used by computers, smart phones, or
other devices. In addition, the ELM329 provides
support for several other CAN protocols (including
the SAE J1939 truck and bus standard), and for
sending periodic messages, mixed ID messages,
and for monitoring the CAN bus, to name only a few.
The following pages discuss the ELM329’s
features in detail, how to use it and configure it, as
well as providing some background information on
the protocols that are supported. There are also
schematic diagrams, and circuit construction tips.
