Announcing the development of a new product called the Rover All Comms. The intent of this product is to provide a multi vehicle communications protocol transciever. The device will enable any Windows PC with a USB port, to communicate with the different vehicle subsystems across three different Rover vehicles. This will be accomplished through a piece of software, in which the vehicle owner can send commands to different systems like the HEVAC or the EAS. Aditionally, this will also be possible across three different vehicles.
It is my hope that this will be the last and final piece of hardware that I develop for the Rover community. The hardware will enable very simple Windows software to trigger the time sensitive and complex message framing that must be accomplished for most of the vehicle computer subsystem communications. Initially, the software developed for the system may be a bit rough and could be missing some vehicle subsystem modules. The long term goal, is that this hardware will encourage persons independent of myself to carry the diagnostic software development.
