FORScan Android USB support?

Post by Spuddy »

Hi Guys,

I have an adapter that works fine in the windows version of FORScan, it only supports a USB connection. The Android version documentation only suggests it works via Bluetooth and WIFI which my device does not have these capabilities. Can the Android version be set to connect via USB and does it work?

I don't want to buy the Android version to find it is no good to me.


Thanks for any info

Android version has support for common USB UART chipsets (FTDI, Prolific, Silicon Labs, WCH) used in USB adapters.

There is also a demo version for Android where you can test if your adapter works.
