    I have been using an HP iPAQ with ECUtalk for many years but it appears my iPAQ has decided to stop working. So I thought I would take this opportunity to update and maybe move to an android based monitoring system. I see Nissan Data Scan has the NSDI app for android that requires a Bluetooth Consult adaptor or FTDI USB Consult adaptor to connect. I have blaZt cables consisting of the following:

    • Consult to RS232
    • RS232 to iPAQ

    Can I simply buy something like in the below link and an OTG cable to make it work?

    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/iBuffal...rs232+ftdi&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=m570.l1313

    Or just get the tried and tested ECUtalk USB consult cable and OTG cable?

    On a side note, does anyone in Australia sell the Consult adaptor similar to the one recommended on the NDS website? I see you can get Non-Bluetooth ones from eBay for not much more money than the cable in the link above although I have read there are issues with this style of Consult Interface.
