After six years as one of the most popular J2534 vehicle interfaces, the McS1 has been discontinued due to lack of availability of several of the internal integrated circuits.  The powerful MyCANIC and MLite interfaces are now available for any current and future needs.

March 2010

A custom version of the MyCANIC vehicle interface is now available for Ford Fleet customers to perform the manual diesel particulate filter (DPF) regeneration routine on remote vehicles.

December 2009

The new low-cost M-Lite USB-to-CAN interface is now available.  This interface has two CAN channels and is capable of monitoring, simulation, logging to an internal SDCard as well as analog and digital data acquisition.

SimuCAN(R) now supports the MyCANIC to provide the most comprehensive and lowest cost vehicle network simulation environment for electronic module or vehicle development.  This combination saves over $10K per development station with the highest performance available.

December 2008

We have negotiated better shipping rates from UPS and we are passing the savings on with much lower shipping and handling rates for local, out-of-state and international shipments.

September 2008

The much-anticipated MyCANIC(R) product is now in production!  This new vehicle interface supports J2534 Pass-Thru PC applications with best-in-class performance,  three separate CAN channels, a graphic user interface for standalone use, an SD/MMC card slot for data logging as well as flash calibrations, two spare analog inputs,  a ruggedized enclosure and much more for just $575.00USD including the OBDII cable!

July 2008

EEPod recently completed a project for the joint hybrid bus project between Kettering University and the Flint Mass Transit Authority, using a custom version of our McS1 product to translate network messages between J1939 and DeviceNet for the complex hybrid control system.  You can read more about this project at: http://www.kettering.edu/visitors/storydetail.jsp?storynum=621

June 2008

The McS1 Vehicle Interface has been tested and approved for use with the SilverScan-Tool software from RA Consulting.  For more information on the SilverScan-Tool software, please visit their website at www.rac.de .

January 2008

We are now a distributor for the DataPro Software from EDGE Analysis.  It is a complete data acquisition software for OBD-II diagnostics in all modes, read and clear DTC codes, 4 real-time views, analysis graphs, overlay plots and much more.

December 2007

EEPod LLC is moving to a new facility in Howell, Michigan.  Our new facility will allow us to expand our business and offer many new products and services, including vehicle module testing / validation.

November 2007

The SimuCAN(tm) software is now available, offering real-time vehicle network simulation.  With an introductory price of $495.00, engineers can have a full vehicle network simulation and test environment for less that $1000.00 (including the cost of an McS1 Vehicle Interface).   Compare this to competitive packages that cost well over $10,000.00!

July 2007

We are offering two new products for converting high-speed CAN dual-wire to either fault-tolerant CAN dual wire or single-wire CAN.  See our Products page for more details.

April 2007

We are now a distributor of the Palmer Performance PCMSCAN software that provides access to all OBDII modes and parameters for monitoring, logging, DTC reading and clearing as well as numerous other capabilities.

January 2007

A custom version of the McS1 (called VCI) is now being used in the Aston Martin Dealership Diagnostic System (AMDS) worldwide.

October 2006

The McS1 has passed CE certification and is WEEE compliant for sale in most European countries.

September 2006

Please note the change of our FAX number.  The new number is 810-373-3580.

February 2006

The DgB1 data gateway bus interface is now available.  The DgB1 puts data from four K-Type thermocouple on the vehicle bus so that it may be timestamp correlated with all other vehicle bus data.  Future versions of the DgB1 will support T and J thermocouples as well as 0-10VDC and 0-100VDC analog inputs.  Several DgB1 interfaces may be used in a single application where many channels are required.

October 2005

Ford Racing licensed the technology in our McS1 product to quickly launch the Pro-Cal interface.  Pro-Cal allows Ford Racing to provide engine calibration upgrades that are perfectly matched to their performance parts. Please reference the following link for details.

April 2005

The McS1 has been tested and approved for use with the Ford Module Programming software. Please reference the following link for details.

January 2005

We now have Windows CE drivers and libraries available for PDAs with USB Host capability (e.g. Toshiba e400/e800).  A PDA and McS1 offers a very portable and flexible diagnostic and reprogramming solution for well under $1000!

June 2004

Our first product, the McS1, is available.  The McS1 is a pass-thru interface for communicating from a PC to a variety of vehicle networks, including CAN / ISO15765, ISO14230, ISO9141, J1850PWM and J1850VPW.  In addition to the vehicle network capability, the McS1 has one 5-20V analog output channel, four 0-20V analog input channels and two digital I/O channels.  The connection between the PC the McS1 is an electrically isolated USB implementation that will protect your PC investment while providing a simple high bandwidth interface necessary for demanding applications.
