Once you have the bluetooth OBD-II adapter plugged into the car's OBD-II ports and powered on, you need to connect to the car's system computer via that bluetooth adapter, by pulling down the option menu and select item "Connect to OBD-II Adapter", a dialog window will appears and shows a list of paired devices (one or more devices in the list), each paired device has two information as following:
Name of paired bluetooth device (for example: obdii-dev)
Max address (for example: 77:A6:43:E4:67:F2)
The Max address is used to distinguish two or more bluetooth adapters have the same name.
You must choose your bluetooth OBDII device by select the correct it's name (or it's max address) in the list and click on the item, then the app starts connecting process and autodetects the OBD-II protocol.
If the process finished successfully the protocol description will be displayed on screen (control panel) and the notification "Connected to OBDII Adapter" will appear on the status bar.
If the process was failed you can try it some times (we assume that the bluetooth OBD-II adapter is working well)
When you only use the lookup function you do not need the above connection step
