Can Kpro set the "readiness code" for inspections

I recently failed an inspection because i stupidly forgot about the readiness code after my batttery died while i was away. So now i have to wait until it readies itself, but since there is no sensor on the dash, and the manual gives all of these things to do to get it ready, i dont really know when to bring it in.
I dont drive the rsx much - it usually sits for weeks at a time. I havent put more than two miles on it since the inspection failed about two weeks ago. Plus the inspection is now overdue...
Any suggestions?

I'm sure they'll be able to smell that RH unless you are running some type of fragrance gas
So how do you set the readiness?? Like i click on set readiness but nothing happens please help.
What do you expect to happen? Any existing DTC's will be cleared from the Error Codes window (Windows | Error Codes) and the status will be set to pass for the supported tests. Of course, the ECU repeats these tests eventually, so the DTC for no cat will come back.

Oh, and you need to have the ignition in the On position. Set Readiness is not a save-and-upload sort of command; it is a live command.
& set readiness just before showing up for inspection too.

i passed with my rh on..

setting readiness will give the testing computer a perfect score when it checks your emissions and safety equipment.... EVEN IF YOU HAVE NO CAT...
Whoa... You learn something new every day.
i have been exempt from emissions the past two years but probably will not be able to pull it off next year if i move. so i am going to give this a try too.
time to get k-pro
I passed with a faulty o2 sensor. It's been disabled on the last emissions test I had done. We have to turn our engine off for our emmissions testing. I forgot to enable my OBDII and forgot to set readiness.
I don't think the ecu resets with the ignition off. with the battery unhooked, yes. I personally am a texas state inspector and from my two years of experience of inspections, there are tactics around the inspection systems.
I just passed my emissions with a bad secondary O2 sensor (threw a P0420, which is what you'd get with a race header/no catalyst convertor). So I enabled ODBII and Set Rediness the night before I went. All they did was plug into OBDII and run some scan, I passed. On the drive home my CEL went back on. :shady:
anyone know how much a brand new 02-04 O2 sensors goes for ?????

If they hooked a sniffer to your tail pipe u would have failed.
sorry i dont mean to jack ur thread or anything but Im having a huge problem. after i got the DCRH, i had the cel. i assumed it was cuz of no cat. so i used a defouler + o2 sim. but with more investigation it told us that the heat something was messed up in the sensor. so the sensor was bad. but after trying another 2 sensors, still the same problem. my mechanic said hes getting a strong + and - current but a weak ground. and he said theres good continuity throughout the wire so its not a snip or break in the wires. any clue as to what it could be?

Primary 02? I am having the same issue. They say it could be a bad ECU. Hondata told me to update the software and clear security then upload the tune again. If it still does not work it's probably a bad ECU. I don't think it' is though. My car seem to run just fine so I think it is a software glitch because mine did not start until I updated the software and changed the tune. Then it gave me problems and i can't set rediness now.
Sorry to bump an old thread but I have a question about setting the readiness. When I selected it nothing happens and in the error codes box under readiness codes it says not supported and for status it has (-) marks. Is this supposed to happen. I have an 05. Can anyone help? thanks
Do you have odbII disabled?
Nope it is enable
