2. Getting to Know CarDAQ-M
Your package includes: the CarDAQ-M interface, a USB cable, an OBD-II
cable, and a installation CD that includes PC drivers and the J2534
Toolbox.
CarDAQ-M Expansion Modules
The CarDAQ-M was designed to be the last J2534 tool you will ever need.
As OBDII standards change and vehicle manufacturers make vehicle
computer systems ever more complex, the CarDAQ-M will have
expansion modules available to stay up to date. By connecting these
modules end-to-end, the CarDAQ-M can be updated to support new
vehicle technologies that currently do not exist. Simply purchase an
expansion module, connect it to the CarDAQ-M and now you have the
most current J2534 tool.
