 # Welcome
 
-Python-OBD is a library for handling data from a car's [**O**n-**B**oard **D**iagnostics port](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics) (OBD-II). It can stream real time sensor data, perform diagnostics (such as reading check-engine codes), and is fit for the Raspberry Pi. This library is designed to work with standard [ELM327 OBD-II adapters](http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?field-keywords=elm327).
+Python-OBD is a library for handling data from a car's [**O**n-**B**oard **D**iagnostics](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-board_diagnostics) port. Please keep in mind that the car **must** have OBD-II (any car made in 1996 and up); this will _**not**_ work with OBD-I.

-OBD connections operate in a request-reply fashion. To retrieve data from the car, you must send commands that query for the data you want (e.g. RPM, Vehicle speed, etc). In python-OBD, this is done with the `query()` function. The commands themselves are represented as objects, and can be looked up by name or value in `obd.commands`. The `query()` function will return a response object with parsed data in its `value` property.
