NEW VEHICLE SETUP/FIND SIGNALS
The DashDAQ has been designed to be used on any 1996 and newer OBD II vehicle. Vehicles, which the DashDAQ is connected, will
typically offer a different set of parameters or signals available.
The New Vehicle setup:
1. Plug DashDAQ into the vehicle.
2. Turn the vehicle’s key to the on position. The engine does not need to be started.
3. Turn on the DashDAQ.
4. From the DashDAQ main menu, Tap [Setup], tap [Devices].
5. Tap [Find Signals].
6. Follow the on-screen instructions. When DashDAQ lists how many signals were found, DashDAQ has finished.
7. Repeat steps 1-6 every time DashDAQ is connected to a new vehicle.
*Signals may appear and not function if the New Vehicle Setup is not run when the DashDAQ is connected to a different vehicle
