Accepting  the  second  caution  screen  by  pressing  the

  button  automatically  launches  a  vehicle 

communication procedure during which Flux2 determines the OBD2 protocol your vehicle uses so that it can communicate with 
your  factory  computer.      There  are  a  number  of  OBD2  protocols  and  Flux2  will  step  through  each  automatically  until  it 
establishes communication and this will occur each time you power up your Flux2 Display and no action is required by you.   

                 

 

b.

 

Once communication with the factory computer is established, the Flux2 display will automatically change to a Link Success 

display which confirms the OBD2 protocol in use.   After 5 seconds the display will automatically advance to the Flux2 Main 
Menu Page.  You may also press the buttons on either side of the

display to advance without any 

delay.   

Note:  To  speed  up  launch,  once  Flux2  has  established  communication  it  no  longer  searches  for  protocols  so  if  you 
switch the Flux2 to a different vehicle, you may have to “force” communication.   

When you connect to a new vehicle, Flux2 will run through a normal

  or  manually  step

c.

 

The Flux2 Display Main Menu Page features navigation options to view live parametric data, to scan the factory computer 

for fault codes, to change screen settings, correct vehicle speed readings, and connect to the factory computer, and to change 
maps in the Unichip computer.  Each of these functions is described below. 

d.

 

When  you  turn  the  vehicle’s  ignition  key  off,  your  OEM  ECU  will  power  down  and  stop  communicating  with  the  Flux2.  

Although  the  time  for  Flux2  to  power  down  after  switching  the  key  off  varies  between  vehicle  types,  shortly  after  the 
communication stops, the Flux2 Display will transition to a 

NO LINK TO VEHICLE
