CAN communication with Chevy Volt BMS Battery Energy Control Module

As detailed in the previous post, I have a Chevy volt battery in the rear of the 74 Bug in parallel with the OEM BMS hooked up. I am trying to verify that the BMS is working. The BMS has a CAN communication system. The X1 connector on the BECM Pin 3 WH/BK is CAN- and pin 4 L-BU is CAN+.

USB CAN device

I bought an USB CAN communication device from eBay to read the CAN data. It is called: "USB-CAN USB to CAN bus Converter Adapter For professional Notebook PC Laptop" for $21.49. It is labeled USB-CAN A1+. It has the following features:

• A standard CAN interface, CAN-H and CAN-L two-wire interface;
• Jumper selectable access or disconnect the terminals 120 ohm resistance;
• The USB interface supports USB2.0, compatible with USB1.1;
• Supports standard and extended frames;
• Support shielding / filtering;
• Support two-way transmission, CAN send, CAN receiver;
• High-speed CAN transceiver the TJA1050; baud rate between 20Kbps-1Mbps optional;
• USB interface directly powered, no external power supply;

Software for Windows was available for download. It is in Chinese. The software is called "CAN bus debugging tools Ver 4.6". It detected the USB device on the appropriate COM port but I couldn't get it to read any data.

Update:
I hooked it up and couldn't get it to work. Not sure if it is defective or if it is a software problem or if I hooked it up wrong.
