There is undoubtedly countless threads and a wealth of info here on these devices. I'm fine with reading through all the info that people have spent hours/days on providing to the community.
My question is I just need to be pointed in the right direction to avoid sorting through theeads that may or may not be pertinent to getting started, hopefully this helps others as well.
I just received my clone and needless to say I want to jump right in. I have one 32MB card, and also a laptop with a RS-232 port if that makes it easier.
Do I need to run the tis2000 software?
I assume one 32MB card per vehicle.
I saw the video on the loopback but unsure if that's needed.
Just looking to get started but don't want to overlook anything. I will surely read up on anything recommend.
Sorry if these questions have been asked, I just don't want to brick the unit or damage a PCM, I'll take the scolding from members on simple search functions..... over making an ill-informed decision.
