CarChip™

Our original models of CarChip, which were downloaded using a serial-port cable, have been replaced by models that use a USB cable. The new CarChip models also support the CAN protocol, which is being phased in newer vehicles. We leave the original product posted here so that information about it can still be accessed.

Vehicle Conflicts and Exclusions

There are a few vehicles in which CarChip does not function properly, and there are others in which CarChip may interfere with the normal operation of the vehicle. Please review the list of known CarChip Vehicle Conflicts and Exclusions, serial-port version before purchasing or using CarChip.

Important Safety Notice

CarChip has been carefully designed and tested to comply with the OBDII protocols used on most cars and light trucks sold in the USA, model-year 1996 or later. However, some vehicle models are not in full compliance with these protocols. In addition, the computer control systems on any given vehicle may be malfunctioning or out of spec, as may be the sensors used by these systems.

Before installing CarChip, be sure to review the list of known vehicle exclusions and anomalies (see the link above). For more information on OBDII issues and anomalies in general, we recommend The Equipment and Tool Institute's website at www.etools.org.

While our testing and the experience of thousands of CarChip users have shown the unit to be safe and reliable, there is an inherent risk in adding any aftermarket product that may potentially affect the operation or drivability of your vehicle. Should you be concerned about the operation of your vehicle at any time while using CarChip, you should pull over, off the roadway, immediately or as soon as it is safe to do so. Remove CarChip from the OBDII port and consult a licensed mechanic or automobile service center.

Report any issues or concerns to our Technical Support Dept. at 510-732-7814 or support@davisnet.com. We are open Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Pacific Time. We maintain an active database of the feedback we receive, and your comments can help us continuously improve the product.

CarChip^®

With the basic CarChip, the data logger will store up to 75 hours of trip details before you'll need to download. If you drive, on average, two hours a day, that's over a month's worth of driving data! (When full, CarChip "rolls over" and begins to overwrite the oldest data with the newest.)

You'll get complete trip details including:

• Time and date for each trip
• Distance traveled
• Speed (recorded every 5 seconds)
• Hard brakings and quick accelerations

With CarChip, you can test your vehicle's emission status (or see if the used car will pass the smog test before you buy it!), sort business and personal miles, and calculate gas mileage.

You can view all of this graphically on your computer screen, giving you a moment-by-moment picture of how you—or perhaps your employees or the teenagers in your household—are driving.

If the vehicle's check engine light (also known as a malfunction indicator light or MIL) comes on, you'll be able to:

• Read the diagnostic trouble code (or DTC).
• Get the "freeze-frame" sensor readings telling you the status of various engine parameters at the time.
• Reset the light.

Includes data logger, software on CD, and USB cable for downloading data. Requires Windows 98SE/2000/ME/XP and one USB port.

CarChipE/X

CarChipE/X includes all the features of CarChip, plus four times the data storage—up to 300 hours of driving data. (The actual number of hours will vary, depending on how frequently you log data. When full, CarChipE/X "rolls over" and begins to overwrite the oldest data with the newest.)

As with CarChip, you'll get time and date for each trip, distance, speed, hard accelerations and braking, and engine diagnostic trouble codes. CarChipE/X records every second of every trip. You can also test for emissions status - find out the chances of a used car passing the smog test before you buy it! You can also sort business and personal miles, set thresholds for graphs, and calculate gas mileage.

With CarChipE/X you'll also be able to monitor any four out of 23 user-selectable engine parameters, including:

• RPM
• Throttle position
• Engine load
• Fuel pressure
• Fuel system status
• Short- and long-term-fuel trim
• Battery voltage
• Timing advance
• Coolant temperature
• Air flow rate
• Intake air temperature
• Intake manifold pressure
• Oxygen sensor voltage

Plus, if you're unfortunate enough to be involved in an accident, CarChipE/X will automatically generate an accident log showing the last critical 20 seconds of speed.

Includes data logger, software on CD, and USB cable for downloading data. Requires Windows 98SE/2000/ME/XP and one USB port.

CarChip Fleet includes all the data logging capabilities of CarChipE/X, but is designed to be used with our Fleet Management Software (sold separately).

You'll get up to 300 hours of trip details, including distance, speed, time, hard accelerations and decelerations, engine diagnostic trouble codes, and an accident log. The accident log records the last 20 seconds of speed before a complete stop. You'll also be able to monitor any four out of 23 user-selectable engine parameters. After reviewing diagnostic trouble codes, managers can quickly and easily set CarChip to turn the "check engine" light off.

With CarChip Fleet and our Fleet Management Software, you'll also get additional reporting capabilities that let you:

• Sort data and create reports according to selected criteria.
• Track and compare drivers and vehicles by fleet, group, or location.
• Summarize data by selected date range—day, week, month, or longer.

Includes CarChip data logger only. Requires Fleet Management Software, which is sold seperately. Buy as many data loggers as you like; you'll need just one Fleet Management Software package. Requires Windows 98SE/2000/ME/XP, at least 32 MB (64 MB recommended) free hard disk space, and one free USB port.

Click the "More Info" button at the bottom of this page to download the DriveRight catalog. It includes screen shots of Fleet Management software. Also download CarChip Sample Screen Shots to see some CarChip software screens. You'll use both software packages with CarChip Fleet.
