Default USB OBD11 ELM327 any good.

Hi Guys...bought a USB OBD11 fault code reader off ebay...after a lot of faffing about to get it to connect to the laptop...I have got it up and running now,

Using Scantool.net software it came with...only able to use the first 2 pages of info unless I pay for the full prog,

I'm new to using these devices...only got it to clear a fault light on my daughters KA after the coil pack failed...which it did with outs problem,

So out of curiosity...just what can I do with it...I dont understand most of the data it displays interesting as it is,

Is there any other free software available that may give more info that the scantool stuff I have.

Nick.
