They don't explain it but it will require some software to run the cable.

I think Durametric is trying to file a patent infringement claim against them but since they are foreign its very difficult if not impossible.

I question if that cables features is worth the trouble to try it.

The only really fun and capable units that do everything, I have seen, is the real Porsche units that cost in excess of $15k and can only be sold to verified legit Porsche dealers.

I guess the market/interest is not there to hack one of those units and create a DIY enthusiasts version.
