Software to use with Scangauge 2 cable

The scan gauge 2 I got isn't working, and I can't get any info from SG really. So I was wondering if there was anything other than software and the cable I would need to connect to my computer and check things out.

If you are in Japan, could it be that you have OBD X, i.e. could it be "Japan Compliant"? What do Japan forums say about OBD compliance? Could they be using their own custom protocol?
