New Connections: J2534 Cable #223

Closed MasterCodeIT closed 1 year ago

MasterCodeIT commented 3 years ago

I have the J2534 working well and I want to integrate pyobd with it but I need to "add" this as new connections.

Ideas?

python-OBD is designed to work specifically with the ELM327 family of devices. J2534 is a completely different communication standard that relies on a combination of a J2534 hardware device & associated device driver, as well as vehicle manufacturer-specific software that knows how to communicate with the target vehicle over the J2534 link. So, it's basically an 'apples and oranges' situation; Python-OBD simply isn't designed and cannot be modified to work with J2534.
