This, and the OBDLink MX-WiFi, are the only consumer adapters that support the SWCAN (aka GMLan) bus. - Operation After you have selected a connection method, you are ready to begin using OBD Explorer. Simply press the "Connect" button and then tap in the "Command Entry" field to bring up a keyboard for command entry. Each command you enter is added to the log screen, followed by the response from the OBD adapter. - Share There is a "Share" button at the top-right of the screen. This allows you to export the log of your commands/responses to your choice of places. - Macros OBD Explorer makes it easy for you to enter often-used commands with it's "Macros" facility. You can add, delete, edit macros any way you like. To invoke a macro, just type M_ followed by the name of the macro. - Translate OBD Explorer, with your guidance, can translate the output from your vehicle into more useful forms. It can translate the data into a character string, or into numbers (either a byte at a time or two bytes at a time). A prime example of this is translating the result from a request for the car's VIN (PID 09 02) into the desired result. Links to publicly-available guides to help you with your exploration are included in the documentation.
