[Request] Sniffing / Monitoring

Post by Focus-MK4 »

Dear FORScan Team,

would it be possible to implement a Sniffing / Monitoring Mode to FORScan so that we can see what´s going on, on our Network in the Cars?
This would be awesome.
In addition for it would be great if there would be a possibility to send a specific command to the Network.

In the meantime, does anyone have a tutorial how to achieve this already now? Any specific SW/HW required? Possible with STN-Chipset like STN2120?

FORScan is not capable to operate at that level. The last thing FORScan needs is an idiot driving a vehicle off a cliff.

A CAN analyzer would also work - PEAK is the one I use with multiple J2534 devices.
