Note: If the indicator light is enabled, which is its default setting, it continuously blinks when connected to 
a vehicle. If the indicator is disabled, it stops blinking once is has established communication with the 
OBDII computer. 

 

4. 

Check to make sure the data logger indicator light is blinking. This verifies CarChip was properly 

inserted into the OBDII port and is communicating with your vehicle. 

 

The CarChip Pro or CarChip Fleet Pro data logger (# 8226, 8246) connects to your computer using a USB 
connection.  

To connect the CarChip Pro data logger to your computer using a USB connector: 

1.  Insert the USB connector of the download cable into a USB port. 
2.  Plug the smaller connector into the CarChip Pro  (# 8226) or CarChip Fleet Pro (# 8246) data logger 

port.
