Video: Autometer Dashlink OBDII Gauge System Makes Any Tablet Or Phone Into Gauges

Whether you are an iPhone, iPad, Droid, or whatever user, you can make any tablet, phone, or bluetooth compatible screen into a complete stand alone gauge panel with the new Autometer Dashlink. And to top it off, the entire thing is customizable for looks and for function. If you have a newer OBDII vehicle, this is one cool setup that can really be fun to play with AND that will give you truly valuable information by taking advantage of all the sensors and data that your factory system utilizes.

Take advantage of the power of your vehicle’s on board diagnostic system!
Get the benefit of a comprehensive gauge set without the complication or expense of a typical installation.
(Note: Not all OBD-II compliant vehicles will have support for all of these parameters)

Performance gauges:
– Engine speed
– Corrected vehicle speed
– Open/closed loop
– Boost/vacuum combo gauge

– IM Readiness status

Additional Features:
– Professional skid pad showing lateral and accel/braking Gs with min/max indicators
– Race track visually maps out your location, acceleration and braking as you drive laps around the track allows you to visually analyze different race track laps to see how acceleration and braking changed from lap to lap thus helping you to improve your lap times on your next outing.
– Inclinometer shows rolling angle and vehicle pitch for off-roading.
– Support for OBD-II diagnostics. Find out why your check-engine light is on and clear diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs)
– Data logging, record and playback log files showing OBD-II and acceleration data

Also compatible with the Pioneer AppRadio

Manufacturer-specific data is available for select vehicles, through In-App purchase.
