Can the 3130 be connected while driving and deliver an accurate read

yes it will give you live data while driving and will tell you what the conditions were at the time of the engine code was set off..
199154
Yes but you should have a helper with you would have liked if Amazon repalced the unit as when I received it there was a chip out of the sceeen I called and e mailed and received No reply Norm Answer here...

When I drove it it seemed to get the MPH pretty well. Also I think the Rpm and a few other readings, I can't remember well what the others were. It help me keep that car running until I finally decided to get rid of the car. The Machine works pretty well. I recommend it for an enthusiast. :)

Yes. It's refresh time is a little slow and there is a limit to the number of fields you can view at one time (due to the size of the screen) but it's still showing you very useful live data. This is the main reason I returned the cheaper and much more popular Innova 3100, it had NO live data capability. Best the 3100 could do was freeze frame data on whatever DTC it thought was most relevant, and of course you had to have a DTC present to see that information at all. I'm really happy with the 3130.

The live data feature gives useful information while driving. It can be customized to show the information that you want to see on screen. This is the best tool I have seen for the price range.

Yes, it has a live data feature that displays a lot of sensor readings in real time.You can scroll through all the different sensors or display only a set of sensors you choose.

Yes. I connected the cable to read the temperature of my radiator. Very straight forward kit.

I haven't worked on many with this reader. every vehicle i have used it on however has had different real time information i think the reader reads information given by vehicle computer so if the vehicle computer program is programmed to monitor trans fluid temp. the reader will read it.

I am not sure I can help you with the specifics mine was very simple to set up ... check to make sure you have the sensor and the spoke magnet in the right alignment. That is where your speed reading will come from and without that correct you can't get a distance traveled reading. Make sure that the sensor on the fork is facing the correct way. If I remember correctly it looks like a little dot and that is where the magnet needs to be passing in front of for the unit to give you a speed. Also make sure the distance from magnet to sensor is not too far away. Hope this helps

Yes! It works fine! A little distortion from road noise sometimes, but overall a handy device!

Yes. It will display the speed limitation and the real time speed, and voice warnings at some points.

I'm looking for a scanner that can read my abs and or brakes! I have the 3100 and it doesn't read my abs brakes airbags etc

I read my 1996 ford explorer, but I not sure if it reads transmition codes.

Doubtful xp will do the trick . Look into car code reader apps on your smart phone

You would have to verify that the prius monitor has an available input, if it does you would probably have to pull the monitor out to access it.

No, it will tell you the error code, and if it supports your car for more than simple OBDII, will allow you to see various PCM inputs in real time. You will have to know (or learn) what sensors are applicable to the specific error code. The web is great for learning the codes, just be willing to read a lot.

No, it is read-only and code clearing. It will only tell you what your car's system thinks is it's speed.

I've used it on an LLY Duramax, and it worked great. It cannot read abs computers or airbag systems. It only relays basic data from the ecu through OBD II. With the software that comes with it or third party software you can read DTC's (diagnostic trouble codes) reset check engine lights and read real time sensor data. Like oxygen sensor voltage, baro/map sensor pressure, and fuel rail pressure exe all from your smartphone or laptop via bluetooth. You can also view emissions readiness monitors and each systems current condition either "not ready","ready","pass", or "fail".

Yes you can, I use it primarily for this and it works very well. It takes less than 8 seconds to get a stable reading.
839998
Yes. It will read all engine functions and service codes as well as Temp, RPM and sensor readings
1356311
Yes. That's actually how I have mine set up. You can display any 3 readings at once.

Live data depends on vehicle capabilities. It is not the fastest response but it work. You can also graph the data and overlay several graphs of different sensors at the same time.
