USING OBD-2 TECHNOLOGY FOR VEHICLE DIAGNOSTIC AND USING IT IN THE INFORMATION SYSTEM

Abstract

This article considers the research of OBD-2 technology for interaction with on-board vehicle systems, the creation of a unified system that can work with different makes and models of cars. The history of OBD-2 technology, its development, existing standards and their implementation in modern cars is described. Basic diagnostic functions are described, with which you can get information about the car, as well as perform its settings and send various commands to it. In addition, the hardware part of the scanner, its technical features, nuances of interaction with it and the purpose of each of its pins are considered. Also reviewed couple models of scanners that can be used to develop this system. Conclusions are drawn on the practicability of their use, taking into account their capabilities. Existing software analogues, their main functions, advantages and disadvantages are considered. The general concept of interaction with the car via OBD-2, the interaction algorithm and step-by-step analysis of the interaction between the scanner and the car are also considered. The software part of the interaction between the car and the scanner, special codes used to send requests and responses, their further analysis and interpretation in a human-friendly form are considered. The possibilities for the unification of these codes for different car manufacturers and the common code base to create a universal system that will be suitable for different cars from different car manufacturers are highlighted. A model of the software system is proposed, which can embody a large set of useful functions for any motorist and will be compatible with a large number of modern cars equipped with universal diagnostic tools, while using an affordable scanner model without the use of expensive professional equipment.
