As the automotive industry shifts towards Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) and software-defined vehicles, the need for advanced, adaptable diagnostic tools has never been greater. In response to evolving regulatory and technological demands, ODOS has launched the Microlog Dongle, a next-generation datalogger designed to streamline electric vehicle (EV) testing and ensure compliance with SAE J1979-2 and J1979-3 standards.
The shift from traditional OBD-II diagnostics to the new OBDonUDS (J1979-2) and ZEVonUDS (J1979-3) frameworks is redefining how vehicle diagnostics and compliance testing are conducted. With regulatory bodies, including the California Air Resources Board (CARB), mandating these new standards by 2027, manufacturers must quickly adapt their diagnostic and verification processes. The Microlog Dongle is engineered to meet these challenges head-on, providing EV developers with the precise, real-time data necessary to optimise performance and ensure compliance with the latest industry mandates.
Designed for flexibility and efficiency, the Microlog Dongle is available in CAN2.0, CAN-FD, and DoIP versions, making it compatible with a wide range of CAN and Ethernet-based vehicle architectures. This ensures its usability across Internal Combustion Engine (ICE), hybrid, and fully electric platforms. With an extended supply voltage range, seamless plug-and-play installation, and cloud-enabled real-time remote monitoring, ODOS’ solution offers an essential toolset for modern automotive testing teams.
As the industry pivots towards high-speed, wireless, and cloud-based diagnostic solutions, the Microlog Dongle stands out as a vital asset in the evolution of vehicle diagnostics. With features that support worldwide remote data logging and analytics, over-the-air (OTA) diagnostics, and secure cloud integration, ODOS’ solution ensures that automotive manufacturers remain ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.
With the mandatory adoption of SAE J1979-2 and J1979-3 approaching, ODOS is committed to supporting the automotive industry in its transition to future-proof diagnostic and compliance solutions. By bridging the gap between traditional emissions-based diagnostics and the evolving ecosystem of ZEVs and software-defined vehicles, the Microlog Dongle empowers manufacturers and developers to navigate this transition efficiently.
