[Idle mode] [Cruise mode][Sport mode]:

These three pages of gauges can be each individually set and alter at any time, the list of engine sensor categories that are available for you to use are listed below:

Engine speed (RPM)
Corrected vehicle speed
Lambda loop Control
Boost/vacuum combo gauge

Inst. fuel economy
Average fuel economy (MPG)
Timing (spark advance)
Engine coolant temp
Intake air temp
Manifold absolute pressure
Mass air flow
Fuel trims, short and long term
Percent engine load
Catalyst temp
Fuel pressure
Lambda gauge
Air/fuel ratio
These may differ depending on your specific make and model of vehicle;

Under The [Diagnosis] menu key Engine Diagnostic features includes:

[Read DTC]: Read the current DTC (Fault Codes) the engine has stored.

[Clear DTC]: Clear all the current DTC (Fault Codes).

[Live data]: Read all the Sensor parameters that related to the Engine ECU.

[Freeze frame data]: OBD systems record exactly when a engine fault occurs and will save sensor parameter data when the DTC is set. And this group of data is called freeze frame data.

[Readiness test]: Readiness reflects the status that all the valid diagnostic functions. The diagnostic functions are referring to the important monitoring functions in OBD system, e.g. Lambda Sensor monitoring, O2 sensor heater monitoring, and EGR system monitoring, etc.

[Read vehicle info]: Read vehicle info such as Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), Calibration IDs (CALLID) and Calibration Verification Number (CVN).*

[Sensor test]: This service is to allow access to the on-board oxygen sensor monitoring test results. The same information may be obtained by the use of [Mode 6 test] *

[Mode 6 test]: This service is to allow access to the results for on-board diagnostic monitoring tests of specific components that are not continuously monitored. Examples are catalyst monitoring and the evaporative system monitoring.*

[EVAP System Test]: The purpose of this service is to enable the external test equipment to control the operation of an on-board system, test or component *

With same features as above

Sorry mate, no wish to offend.
I was under the impression that the features were software which is clearly stated as being free so I was just thinking why pay £50 if you can get them for £6?
If the features are hardware then I stand corrected

None taken, I'm still waiting to get a sample so I can see what it's all about. But what does this dongle thing do?

This item seems to plug into the OBD port and transmit data direct to an app on a smartphone and from what I have seen in the fast ford mag it looks like you can do alot with the data etc
