    Andrew you might want to add the AutoCal to the FlashScan Hardware section.

    I still need clarification on one thing:

    Are all autocal units inextricably linked to the V2 serial number provided at time of purchase?

    If so, is there any way to re-link them to another SN before they are used? This just doesn't make sense to me. ...I will live with whatever the answer is, and I hope I haven't been offensive. I am sure there has been careful thought put into this, and either I am not tracking, or there is a good reason for this.

    PS: thank you Andrew for your email responses.

    The AutoCal V2s are supplied completely unlinked. The FlashScan SN input on the AutoCal order page is really just a final prompt so someone doesn't order the product without having a V2 device to link with.

    The AutoCal device can actually be linked with multiple V2 devices, but the License Number (not the Serial Number) of the V2 devices needs to be the same. This is intended to cater fr tuners/workshops that may have more than one physical V2 device.

    would it be possible to get a serial AD port added to the autocal for logging of wideband sensors?

    It would make more sense to invest in them then as I'm sure tuners would appreciate actually having accurate afr readings to adjust the tunes. Otherwise really the device is limited to just flashing base tunes.

    Yeah.... It would make a whole lot more sense that way....

    If a serial port was added to AutoCal that would be cool but I don't see it as necessary. I'm sure a good portion
    of AutoCals are going to Diesel tuners and mail order tuners (neither really need WBO2) I don't think they are
    going to change them since they are already in production. My solution is simply modify the Scan Tool software
    to bring the serial data in through the PC. That way if someone really wanted to use a WBO2 just hook it up to
    your lap top whilst logging.

    I think ACs not having a serial input helps segment the market more, if your customer really needs a mail order tune via WBO2 then they probably need a FS V2.

    IIRC
    There was something said about a possible hack for serial WBO2.
