2TBox is a companion app for a diagnostic device for motorcycle ECUs. The device connects to the motorcycle; the app connects to the device over Bluetooth LE or over the device's own Wi-Fi network. The app does not work without the device. WHAT YOU SEE • Live readings: engine speed, coolant and air temperature, intake pressure, throttle position, battery voltage, ignition angle, power valve position • Fault codes: codes, descriptions, status, clearing • Service intervals for oil, air filter and spark plug, with configurable limits and reset • Engine hours, including a usage matrix by engine speed and load • Real-time graphs for any parameter • Device settings and firmware updates from the app SERVICE FUNCTIONS The set of available operations is defined by the connected device: the app shows only what the device reports as supported. The operations themselves are performed by the ECU through its own access protocol; the app only forwards the request. WITHOUT THE DEVICE The connection screen offers a demo mode: the app runs against a built-in simulator, so the whole interface can be explored. Data in this mode is simulated, as the banner at the bottom of the screen states. PRIVACY The app collects no data and sends nothing out. It talks only to your device. The single network request it makes is downloading firmware images for that device. The app is not affiliated with or endorsed by any motorcycle manufacturer.
