OBDSTAR MT203 Geteway Simulation & CAN Drive Function Demo

Today we'll demonstrate the function of OBDSTAR MT203 CAN Driver/Gateway Simulator. OBDSTAR MT203 allows us to diagnose modules individually on a workbench, eliminating the need to connect to the original vehicle gateway or reinstall the module back into the vehicle. It is versatile and can handle multiple ECUs, perform diagnostics, and read fault codes.

Kia Sorento Instrument Gateway Simulation

Connect the power supply and the ECU, and then connect the Bluetooth connector.

There are gateway and CAN drive functions on OBDSTAR MT203.

The gateway function supports automatic scanning of standard CAN and fault-tolerant CAN. But does not support automatic identification of CAN FD. Users can manually select standard CAN, fault-tolerant CAN, CAN FD, etc.

Common baud rates are available for quick selection. If don't have one, the custom baud rates can be set. The diagnostic tool defaults to 500K.

This 2020 Kia Sorento instrument uses the CAN FD protocol.

So find the protocol and select 2M baud rate.

The cycling of the 3 dots indicates a successful simulation.

You can now use diagnostic tools like LAUNCH X431 to read ECU information and fault codes, enabling off-vehicle module diagnostics.

Mitsubishi airbag ECU Gateway Simulation 

The Mitsubishi airbag ECU uses fault-tolerant CAN, which can be manually selected or automatically recognized.

Press "ENT" to scan automatically, and the scanned ECU is 83K.

The cycling of the 3 dots indicates a successful simulation.

You can now use the diagnostic tool to diagnose the airbag and read fault codes, etc.

If the automatic identification fails, manually select fault-tolerant CAN and choose from common baud rates. 

If don't match, select custom settings while keeping the diagnostic tool at 500K, and setting the ECU to 83K.

Press "ENT" and proceed to read fault codes for module diagnosis.

CAN Drive Function

Besides gateway simulation, there's also a CAN drive function to test common modules like gear lever, radio, air conditioning, and EBA system. 

This function works in conjunction with the OBDSTAR app where communication definitions for these modules can be found.

HYUNDAI CPEGD3201 ECM Data Read and Write By OBDSTAR DC706

In this post, we will share the data read and write operations for the HYUNDAI CPEGD3.20.1 ECM using OBDSTAR DC706.

Items we need:

OBDSTAR DC706

12V Power Supply

Main Cable

ECU Clone Jumper

MP001 Programmer

HYUNDAI CPEGD3.20.1ECM

Procedure:

Make sure to update the software to the latest version before we get started.

Tap [ECU Flasher] >> [ECM] >> [ECM V31.35]

Enter the menu page and search for the module in the upper right corner to find the corresponding options quickly.

Tap [Guide] and carefully read the operation instructions and connection methods.

Select the appropriate adapter. For this session, we are using the MP001 multifunctional programmer.

Confirm whether the module appearance is consistent.

Now refer to the wiring diagram to make the connection.

After connecting, tap [Start].

Now make an ECU connection.

Make data backup now.

Click [Read MAPS (TC277TP)].

Read successfully.

Save the document, the file names can be customized.

Finish.

A CS label in the upper right corner indicates that clone data verification is supported.

Click [Write MAPS (TC277TP)], and choose [Load external data].

Before writing the data, the device will ask if you need to verify the data. Verification is only required if the data has been modified; cloning does not require verification.

Write MAPS successfully.

That's all for the data read and write operations for the HYUNDAI CPEGD3.20.1 ECM using OBDSTAR DC706.

How to use OBDSTAR V2 Converter for ECU Diagnosis?

Many friends are asking what this OBDSTAR V2 Converter is used for. Here we'll introduce how to use it today.

The OBDSTAR special adapter is mainly used with third-party equipment. This adapter connects the TCM dedicated connector to a test platform so that we can perform diagnostics or tests on the ECU.

We're gonna show how to diagnose with a V2 adapter.

The OBDSTAR V2 Adapter supports an external independent power supply. We can make a connection like this:

1) Connect the entire Bluetooth head here.

2) Supply 12 volts.

Then, we can diagnose this ECU module through a dedicated test platform. After transferring, the adapter makes this connector into the test platform.

Now that we enter the diagnostic system, we can see the ECU information. It's a DQ400E transmission ECU. After entering the diagnostic system, we can continue to perform more functions, like checking mileage as needed.
